House For Sale £300,000
Charming, hidden, Grade II Listed 2 bedroom town centre character cottage
This is a classic period cottage tucked away from passing traffic to the centre of Bridport town with a lovely cottage garden. This really is a hidden gem.
The property is believed to have been built in the 19th Century and is simply laid out with a sitting room, a kitchen/ dining room, a cloakroom, a utility/pantry room on the ground floor and two bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor. The sitting room centres around the fireplace with an oak mantel overand an inset woodburning stove with stone hearth under, while the kitchen/dining room sits to the centre of the house with space for a large everyday dining table to one end and a fitted kitchen to the other. The kitchen has space for an electric cooker, while to one end of the kitchen a door leads through to a cloakroom and a utility/pantry room with space and plumbing for a washing machine, tumble dryer and fridge/ freezer, and useful shelving on the other two sides of the space. Continuity on the ground floor is maintained with an attractive engineered Oak floor while upstairs there is a mixture of carpet and laminate flooring. The principal bedroom has two built-in wardrobes and along the landing there is some attractive plank wall with some lovely artwork part-revealed. Both bedrooms are served by a bathroom that has a shower over the bath while the utility room/pantry has plumbing for a shower that could be reinstated. There is gas fired central heating.
Agents’ Note:
Under the Estate Agents’ Act 1979 we are required to inform any prospective purchaser that this property is owned by a member of staff of Symonds & Sampson and as such constitutes a 'connected person'.
To one side of the cottage a shared pathway leads down to a lovely cottage garden that has two areas of paved terrace flanked by classic country cottage herbaceous planting, with to one side a West facing wall. The garden allows the sun to be taken in for the majority of the day, while behind a pergola to one end of the garden, that is ideal for entertaining during the height of the midday sun, there is a useful storage shed.
The property sits right in the heart of Bridport, a bustling and vibrant market town which has a history of rope making and is now a gateway to the Jurassic, World Heritage coastline at nearby West Bay. It has an excellent variety of independent shops, supermarkets, hotels, pubs, restaurants and cafes catering for a range of tastes and wide ranging arts and music events, including the Literary Festival and Dorset Arts Week. There is a thriving twice weekly market with food, clothes, hardware and antiques and bric a brac. Bridport is conveniently placed for Dorchester and Weymouth to the east and Axminster to the west. Walking, water sports and riding opportunities are plentiful in the area. There is a good choice of primary and secondary schooling in the area. Communication links are good with road links along the A35 and mainline stations at Maiden Newton, Dorchester, Axminster and Crewkerne.
