Bridport, Dorset

Positioned a stone’s throw away from the centre of the charming market town of Bridport, in a plot of approx. 1.24 acres, this Grade II listed former mill house exudes a sense of tranquillity while providing convenient access to local amenities. The property's unique allure lies in the picturesque grounds that are found just out of your rear door, offering a lush escape from the busy hustle and bustle of modern life. This home really feels like it is situated between two worlds and must be seen to be fully appreciated.

As you step into this beautiful and historic home through the porch you are greeted by a generous HALLWAY lined with flagstone flooring, picture rails and stairs rising to the first floor. The SITTING ROOM & SECOND RECEPTION ROOM both offer a warm and welcoming feel thanks to their lovely log burners which form the focal points for both sizeable rooms. From the hallway you find yourself being drawn through the generous DINING ROOM with its dual aspect windows and exposed beams, into one of the most sociable areas of the home, the KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM.

With space for the whole family to lend a hand cooking, and equipped with a 3-stage reverse osmosis water filtration system along with gas fired AGA™, views out to the picturesque grounds, stable door leading out to the CONSERVATORY and copious amounts of storage space, this room has it all. Just off the kitchen a handy UTILITY room is found which has a skylight and offers space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. The downstairs SHOWER ROOM is then accessed which houses a double shower, sink, W.C., and a chrome heated towel rail.

Concluding the accommodation on the ground floor, the current owners have created a 1-bedroom ANNEXE, which is arranged over two storeys complete with a shower room. It is accessible from both the front and rear of the property as well as an internal door from the hallway of the main house. Stairs rise from the ground floor to the LANDING, with its wooden banisters and exposed beams which has a further two separate staircases emerging from it. One leads to the attic space which offers three useful storage rooms whilst the other staircase takes you to BEDROOM FOUR which has dual aspect windows and eave storage space.

The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM enjoys a beautiful view of the river and gardens with a rear aspect window and is enhanced with an en-suite shower room which is fitted with a white suite. BEDROOMS TWO & THREE are great size double rooms with both having feature fireplaces and front aspect windows. Bedroom two benefits from a concealed W.C. and wash hand basin which has cleverly been disguised as a wardrobe. BEDROOM FIVE is currently being used as an office space and has a window to the front aspect.

This home has the luxury of not only having three en-suites but also two good size family bathrooms. The larger of the two is found towards the rear of the property. This BATHROOM with its window to the rear aspect and fully tiled walls incorporates both a bath and also a double walk-in shower, wash hand basin and W.C. The SECOND BATHROOM which is nestled next to bedroom three has a bath with shower over, wash hand basin, W.C. along with window to the rear aspect and again is fully tiled.
