Lake Lane, Bridport, Dorset, DT6

A recently refurbished and beautifully presented, extended detached 3 bedroomed bungalow occupying a lovely tranquil garden plot with garage and extensive parking area on the south-eastern fringe of Bridport close to the coast

SITUATION: The property lies at the entrance to Lake Lane off Valley Road in a popular residential area close to the town centre of Bridport and the coast at West Bay. This is a quiet and tranquil area receiving little traffic noise and has an enclosed rear garden with mature beech tree attractive to wildlife. There is a Nature Reserve closeby with walkway to the coast at West Bay.

The town centre of Bridport is easily accessed by a footpath and the walk along the old railway line leads into West Bay some 2 miles to the south.

Bridport offers mainly independent shops boosted by a twice-weekly street market, art centre, Electric Palace cinema/theatre, vintage and artists' quadrant, leisure centre with indoor swimming pool and the central Bucky Doo Square hosts bands, events and festivals all year round.

West Bay offers a fishing/boating harbour, beaches, access to the Jurassic Coastline and South West Coastal Paths and many marine and leisure pursuits including Gig-rowing and canoeing.

THE PROPERTY was built in the 1970's featuring mainly cavity brick elevations under a tiled roof and has recently benefitted from a single-storey extension under a fibre-glass roof providing an additional bedroom and dining room. It has over the last 9 years undergone an almost complete programme of renovation and re-decoration which has made the best of the accommodation, gardens and site for today's modern lifestyle requirements.

The refurbishment has included renovation of the pirana pine living room floor, new uPVC double-glazed windows and doors, electric consumer unit and lighting circuits, floor coverings, re-plastered ceilings, internal doors, quality bathroom and kitchen facilities together with a wood burner.

The property enjoys a good degree of privacy and sizeable wndows attract natural light flow through the interior which faces mainly east/west with the garden bathed in sunshine for most of the day.

The outside space has good parking provision, a garage, 2 sheds and a store.
