Thread Mill Lane, Pymore, Bridport

A unique two bedroom, two bathroom upper floor apartment in a peaceful village position.

The Property - Bridport has been famous for rope and net-making since the 13th century and The Twisting Rooms are very much a part of that history. In 2002, the rooms were transformed into four unique apartments, each with its own personality. The building has handsome stone elevations under a slate roof and occupies a peaceful position on the edge of the picturesque village of Pymore. No 11 is a spacious and bright upper floor apartment boasting vaulted ceilings, attractive sash casement windows and exposed Hamstone walls. The property has been further improved by the current owners with solid Oak floors, a brand new en-suite shower room and a refurbished study/hobby room which is found behind the garage with an independent electricity supply and direct access onto the gardens.

The accommodation is arranged around an attractive central hallway which makes a lovely space to eat, read and to take in the views over the River Brit and the countryside beyond. Off the hallway are the main reception room, a bathroom, a second bedroom, a utility cupboard and a spiral staircase leading to up the main bedroom.

The main reception room is to the front of the apartment, a particularly impressive open plan space, flooded with natural light with three sash windows to two aspects of the room. The kitchen is fitted with a range of floor and wall-mounted units with fitted appliances to include an electric oven and gas hob with extractor hood over. In addition there is a dishwasher, washer/dryer, space for a fridge/freezer and a Virgin pure water filter.

The second bedroom is a comfortable double room with a fitted wardrobe, currently arranged as a snug/study. The bathroom is partly tiled with a white suite. The principal bedroom is found on the top floor, a generous room with exposed beams and enjoying views across the countryside to the rear of the building. There is extensive fitted storage space including two double wardrobes and eaves storage.

The en-suite shower room is one of the newest additions to the apartment, a tastefully decorated room with partly tiled walls, a white suite comprising of a W/C, wash hand basin and large walk in shower. There are contrasting duck egg blue cabinets.
