Bindbarrow, Burton Bradstock, Bridport, Dorset, DT6

A spacious 3 bed detached bungalow in a prime location with picture windows directly over the sea and coast at Burton Bradstock, within a few mins' walk to the beach and Hive Beach Cafe

SITUATION: The property occupies a generous corner frontage tucked into Bindbarrow and set well back from Beach Road which leads directly to the Hive Beach Cafe, beach and sea (only 2 minutes' walk away) and there is close by access into open countryside forming part of the Jurassic Coastline.

This is a unique opportunity to acquire one of the most sought-after residential sites closest to the sea and with mainly uninterrupted coastal views and superb seascapes. Hence, the property enjoys peace, tranquillity and calm especially with the present wild bird song.

Burton Bradstock is one of the most popular coastal locations for holidays but this is also an active and community-spirited village nurturing generations of full-time retirees and families. There is a parish church, village school, recreational and football ground, a garage/convenience store, a local store/PO, WI hall and 2 pubs together with The Seaside Boarding House hotel and restaurant on the cliff and Hive Beach cafe. There are many village events and clubs. The coastline is also popular for fossil hunting.

There is also a regular bus service (with stop just on the Beach Road turn off) for travelling along the coast from Wareham to Axminster.

THE PROPERTY comprises a spacious 'L'-shaped detached bungalow, believed to have been built in the 1960's featuring reconstituted stone faced elevations under a concrete tiled roof and is the first one of a small cul-de-sac and thus has very little passing traffic or pedestrians.

The property benefits from double-glazed windows and doors, all of which capture views and pleasant aspects and attract good natural light flow to the well-proportioned rooms. There is mains gas central heating and an open fireplace to the lounge.

Obviously luxury in its day and refurbished some 25 years ago, the property has been well maintained but now offers considerable scope for further improvement to meet today's modern life-style. However, it is more than adequate to move into immediately, there is no forward chain and some furniture and furnishings can be included in the sale if desired.

DIRECTIONS: Proceeding along the coastal road from Bridport towards Weymouth, proceed into the village of Burton Bradstock. Just leaving the village, turn right into Beach Road and proceed towards the sea. Take the last turning on the left (just before entering the National Trust car park) and No 1 is the first of the older-style bungalows on the left.

THE ACCOMMODATION extends to:
A front uPVC double-glazed entrance door in the corner of the 'L' shaped bungalow opens into a spacious, shaped RECEPTION HALL with inner passageways leading off to both sides. There are two built-in shelved cupboards, one also housing the gas combi-boiler, together with access to the roof space.
THE SITTING ROOM lies in the south wing with triple aspects, the main central large picture window looking directly out to sea also enjoying the skyscapes. There is a Cherrywood fireplace surround with polished marble inset and hearth with coal-effect gas fire fitted.
