Higher Street, Bridport

A three bedroom cottage with enormous charm and character.

The Dwelling - Piglets is believed to have been converted and extended from an agricultural building in the 1980s and is all about character and position. The exterior sets the scene with attractive brick elevations under a slate roof while the interior has generously proportioned rooms and timbered ceilings. The position is particularly attractive in the heart of Bradpole village yet within walking distance of both the town and a number of good shops. Add parking and a good sized garden and you have a very attractive proposition indeed.

Accommodation - On the ground floor there are two principal rooms with a sitting room to the front of the property centred on the fireplace equipped with a woodburning stove behind which there is a kitchen that looks over the rear garden. The kitchen is equipped with a comprehensive range of solid wood units and cupboards with wood work surfaces over with space to the centre for a substantial farmhouse style dining table. Upstairs there are three good bedrooms served by a family bathroom with a shower over the bath. In addition downstairs there is a useful utility/dog & boot room on the left-hand side of the property. The cottage has been decorated beautifully, has double glazing throughout and oil fired central heating.

Outside - To the front of the property there is a communal area of driveway laid to stone chippings with two parking spots within the curtilage of the cottage. To the rear there is a really attractive southerly facing garden that has a seating area nearest to the house that gives way to a lawn punctuated and edged by mature herbaceous and shrub planting. Beyond the formal area of garden a brick path leads through a delightful vegetable garden that has a series of raised beds and a greenhouse to one corner. The current owners have constructed a delightful contemporary garden room, ideal as a home working space, sleepover den or gym.
