West Street, Bridport, Dorset, DT6

A charming one-up, one-down semi-detached, recently modernised bijou cottage with front patio and good-sized rear garden tucked away in the heart of Bridport town centre

SITUATION: The property is located off West Street behind Long's Fish and Chip Shop and Moore than Tea cafe. A passageway between these two properties opens to the rear where this cottage is nestled and is semi-detached with the adjoining cottage. This is a very quiet location yet only a few minutes' walk of the town centre which has good shopping facilities, a twice-weekly street market, Electric Palace cinema/theatre, Art Centre, vintage and artists' quadrant and the central Bucky Doo Square hosts bands, events and festivals all year round.

Bridport has a very vibrant community, has recently been classed as a town of culture and offers an alternative lifestyle too.

The coast at West Bay lies some 2 miles to the south with connecting walks/cycle routes and affords beaches, fishing harbour and access to the Jurassic Coastline and South West Coastal Paths.

THE PROPERTY comprises an attractive semi-detached cottage featuring mainly stone elevations with brick detail under a clay tiled roof with front pitched storm porch over the wide front entrance door. The property has recently been modernised yet enjoying rustic charm. This has included a new consumer unit and modern electric panel heaters with remote control, some modern units to the kitchen and en-suite shower room, new wooden flooring to the downstairs and insulated vaulted ceiling to the first floor with Velux providing additional light. The windows are timber single-glazed.

The property is presently Listed Grade II but we understand there is potential for de-listing as this was carried out to the next door property.

The property could be occupied immediately, rented out or holiday let (subject to any necessary planning consents).
