Description

A 2-bed det modern bungalow with integral large workshop/garage, mainly recently renovated with luxury fittings, enjoying wonderful living/dining spaces both inside and out

SITUATION: The property is located approximately half-way up Jessopp Avenue, a popular and well established area with close by hard walkway alongside the river to Co-op and Lidl to the north west and into the town centre to the south west across the sculpture garden, both walks less than a mile long. A bus picks up in Jessopp Avenue to take passengers into the twice-weekly street market and back again. The property is also within active walking distance of both primary and secondary schools.

Bridport offers a mainly independent range of shops with a renowned twice-weekly street market, a vintage and artists' quadrant, Art Centre, Electric Palace theatre/cinema and Leisure Centre with indoor swimming pool and fitness suites. The central Bucky Doo Square hosts bands, events and festivals all year round.

The coast at West Bay lies some 2 miles to the south with its fishing/boating harbour, beaches and access to the Jurassic Coastline and South West Coastal Paths and there is a range of water sports available.

THE PROPERTY comprises an attractive detached bungalow occupying an elevated site with wide ramped pathway to the front and side. It was built in the 1980's and has, over recent years, been mainly renovated with luxury kitchen and bathroom, a Hetas registered wood burner and LED lighting both inside and outside. The property enjoys light and spacious accommodation and commands far-reaching views to distant hillsides to the front. The windows and doors are UPVC double-glazed and there is mains gas central heating. Whilst most of the improvements have been finished, there is some scope for personal cosmetic improvement to some parts. The sellers have outgrown the property before completely finishing the renovation.

This property is just as much about enjoying the outside space, with its landscaped and terraced front and rear gardens all well decorated with plants and well fenced for privacy. Rear patio doors open to the raised terrace which offers superb outside dining/entertaining and leisure space, whilst the side passageway offers wooden shed/enclosures for log and bin storage and the integral basement garage offers superb and well serviced workshop space for car maintenance/joinery, etc.
