Queens Road, Bridport, Dorset, DT6

A semi-detached 1920's, 3 bed/2 bath family house with large conservatory occupying a generous plot with parking to the front and enclosed rear garden just an active walk from the town centre

SITUATION: Queens Road is a residential cul-de-sac with a recreational green in the middle and lies on the western fringe of Bridport. This is an ideal family location as nearby there is a corner shop, primary school, skate board park, tennis club, leisure centre with indoor swimming pool and medical centre.

Bridport is a vibrant, cultural and creative town with mainly individual shops, the Electric Palace theatre/cinema, art centre, twice-weekly street market, artists' and vintage quadrant, restaurants and cafes. The central Bucky Doo Square hosts bands, events and festivals all year round.

THE PROPERTY: No 25, Queens Road, comprises a semi-detached 1920's built house, being ex-local authority owned, and featuring pebbledash rendered elevations with some brick detail under a tiled, lined and insulated roof. The property has been generally well maintained and updated over the years with a wood-burning stove in the living room, a substantial conservatory extension with access both from the sitting room and kitchen, uPVC double-glazed windows and doors, two fairly modern shower rooms (one on the ground floor), cavity wall insulation and mains gas central heating. The serviceable, wooden kitchen fittings could be updated and there is some re-decoration needed.

There is some character inside to be enjoyed with the rooms upstairs having slightly pitched ceilings being just into the eaves and there are glimpses of hillsides to the north, including Colmers Hill.

The site is almost level with double gates to two parking spaces on site to the front and a reasonable garden to the rear which includes a timber tool shed and outside entertaining area adjoining the conservatory.

The area is generally quiet and there is little passing traffic or pedestrians.
