CHARMING THREE/FOUR BEDROOM FAMILY HOME WITH ATTRACTIVE, COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS

This charming three/four bedroom period home is discreetly positioned in the heart of Shipton Gorge and enjoys attractive views towards Shipton Hill and the surrounding countryside. The property is conveniently located within easy walking distance of the village pub and church, and is just a short drive from Bridport town centre.
Thought to date from the early 19th century, the property displays many period features characteristic of its era and provides spacious and flexible accommodation arranged over two floors.

Under the current ownership the house has been thoughtfully modernised with works including a newly fitted kitchen and updated flooring. A utility room has been added, and a shower room to facilitate multi-generational living. The garden has been landscaped to include greenhouses. The flat roof has been completely renewed and 10 solar panels together with a car charger and water heater have been installed.
The sitting room is an especially appealing room, featuring a stone fireplace with inset wood-burning stove, and flows through to a further reception room currently used as a dining room. This space is filled with natural light and benefits from large windows overlooking the garden.
Also on the ground floor is a study/occasional bedroom and a generous family bathroom, fitted with a roll-top bath, separate shower, WC and wash hand basin.
The kitchen is equipped with a range of storage cupboards with open shelving above, an integrated dishwasher and a range cooker. There is also a well positioned window with wonderful far reaching views. A separate utility room offers space for a fridge/freezer and washing machine and leads through to a shower room and an additional bedroom. This bedroom is a bright and inviting space, with a large skylight and French doors opening onto the garden.
On the first floor there are two additional bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobe storage, while the second bedroom has the advantage of an en-suite shower room. Both rooms enjoy expansive views across Shipton Gorge towards Shipton Hill and the sea.


Immediately outside the property there is parking for one vehicle beneath a pergola, with scope to create an additional parking space to the front.
The gardens lead from a courtyard area into a delightful cottage-style garden, attractively planted with a wide variety of mature shrubs and plants, complemented by a chamomile lawn and taking full advantage of the pleasant outlook.
A short distance from the house is a single garage with an up-and-over door.
