Green Lane, Bridport

GUIDE RANGE £350,000 - £375,000 Delightful three-bedroom property in a generous plot with huge potential with lovely views just a walk to the town and into the surrounding countryside.

The Dwelling - This property is believed to be built in the 1970s and has classic brick elevations under a tiled roof. This property is all about both its position and its potential. It lies in an elevated position on the east side of Bridport looking over Bridport town towards Colmers Hill with good immediate walking to be had onto the local country to one side and a short walk into Bridport town itself to the other. In terms of potential, although the property is in need of some updating, the size of the plot and the configuration, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents, lends itself to reorganisation and enlargement.

Accommodation - The property is simply laid out with the main body of the living accommodation lying on one side of the house with a sitting area focused on a fireplace to the front of the property flowing through to a dining area with double doors onto the gardens behind to the other. From the dining area a door leads through to a fully fitted kitchen which again overlooks the rear gardens. Also on the ground floor is the third bedroom or perhaps an additional reception room while upstairs there are two good bedrooms each with built-in double wardrobes served by a bathroom with a shower over the bath. The property is double glazed and has a contemporary gas-fired boiler.

Outside - To the front of the property there is a driveway to one side providing parking and access to the garage which is equipped with an up and over door. By the side of the driveway the gardens are laid to lawn punctuated by a number of mature shrubs. The rear garden is a particular feature of the property with a substantial paved terrace stretching across the rear of the property creating an outstanding entertaining area during the summer months overlooking both the gardens and the countryside beyond. This gives way to the formal gardens which are for the most part laid to lawn with areas of herbaceous and shrub planting to the edges and a lovely rose border running down the middle. An archway to the end leads through to an area that has in the past been a vegetable garden but is now for the most part laid to stone chippings for ease of maintenance. Within this part of the garden there is a garden shed and a greenhouse.

Situation - This property is in walking distance of Bridport Town centre, nearby bus links and supermarkets. Also close by are a good choice of walks including Asker Meadows (which also makes a pleasant route into town) and Bothenhampton Hill. Bridport is situated by the River Brit and is a busy, active market town and popular holiday area, designated as being in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, where street markets are held twice weekly. The town provides a comprehensive range of shopping and professional facilities, primary and secondary schools, recreational and social amenities. The pretty harbour at West Bay, with lovely beaches is close by and the area provides the opportunity for enjoying the Jurassic Coast, a World Heritage Site.
