House For Sale £600,000
This property on West Bay Road is believed to have been built in 1820 and is a classic Georgian gem with high ceilings, large windows, open fireplaces, picture rails and flagstone floors to name but a few of the character features. The pitch pine floorboards have been carefully preserved. The property is currently arranged as two apartments set over four floors that could be restored to a single house with very little reconfiguration. In essence it is nine generously proportioned square rooms, two of which are currently configured as kitchens, with the addition of a reception hall, 2 bath/shower rooms, a wet room, and a utility room. The whole property has been decorated and fitted in a distinctly Scandinavian style which contrasts beautifully with the original Georgian features, one complementing the other.
The bottom apartment is currently organized with two bedrooms, a sitting room, a garden room and a shower room with the principal living space a fine Georgian room with a bay window and an attractive marble fireplace as its focal point. The kitchen is fitted out in some style with granite and hardwood worktops and a built-in electric oven and four ring gas hob.
Off the kitchen there is a garden room beyond which there is a beautifully fitted bath/shower room. On the ground floor the entrance hall is shared by both apartments. The top apartment is organised with a second more simply fitted kitchen and a sitting room on the first floor with a second family bath/shower room. Above on the second floor there are two bedrooms, one of which has an en suite wet room. The property is an excellent decorative order throughout, has gas central heating with each of the flats having a separate boiler (the bottom apartment's boiler has the capacity to heat both flats in the absence of the first floor boiler).
To the front of the property there is an attractive garden enclosed by low stone walls with an area of lawn to its centre and mature herbaceous and shrub planting to the sides. Immediately to the rear of the property there is a terrace edged by a raised herbaceous border, beyond which there is an area of lawn with a path to one side and edged by further mature herbaceous and shrub planting. Beyond the garden there is a second area of terrace with a hard stand for either a garden shed/studio or a garage. To the very end of the plot there is that most precious of Bridport commodities - off street parking for two or three cars with access along a private drive
The property is situated between Bridport town and West Bay, within walking distance of both. Bridport is a bustling market town with a history of rope-making and is close to the World Heritage Jurassic coastline. It has a variety of independent shops, supermarkets, public houses and restaurants catering for a range of tastes and excellent arts and music events. West Bay has its harbour and beaches and a variety of small businesses catering for everyday needs. Bridport is conveniently placed for Dorchester and Weymouth to the east and Axminster to the west. Walking, water sports, golf and riding opportunities are plentiful in the area and there are several beaches to choose from. Communication links are good with road links along the A35 and mainline stations at Maiden Newton, Dorchester, Axminster and Crewkerne.<br/><br/>
