Jessopp Avenue, Bridport, Dorset, DT6

A spacious, well maintained detached 3 bed bungalow with large conservatory, garage, parking area and modern chalet/studio, occupying a mainly level site within walking distance of the town centre and scope for adding value

SITUATION: The property is located on the level entrance to Jessopp Avenue, with easy access onto the Happy Island public hard-landscaped walkway to the Co-op and Lidl supermarkets. The property is also within a 0.75 mile easy walk into the town centre of Bridport with its good range of mainly independent shops boosted by a twice-weekly street market, Art Centre, Electric Palace theatre/cinema, artists' and vintage quadrant and Leisure Centre with indoor swimming pool and fitness suites. There is also a community bus service into the town on market days.

There is a very supportive and friendly local community and this is a well established and popular residential area where few sales take place.

The central Bucky Doo Square hosts events and activities all year round including regular bands and festivals. This is a vibrant town centre with a wealth of organisations and clubs to meet most leisure requirements together with well supported U3A groups.

Both primary and secondary schools are within easy walking distance and the coastal village of West Bay lies some 2 miles to the south with its beaches, fishing and boating harbour and access to the Jurassic Coastline and South West Coastal Paths.

THE PROPERTY comprises a traditionally-built detached bungalow built in the late 1980's featuring brick elevations under a concrete tiled roof, with uPVC mainly lattice-style windows and mains gas central heating (with some new upright radiators). It has been very well maintained in recent years and now offers a home ready to move into. There is some scope for adding value with further modernisation. The property will be especially inviting to those with mobility issues. There is a large and very useable conservatory together with landscaped and easily maintainable garden which enjoys privacy and peace and where there is also a newly built detached timber chalet/studio.

DIRECTIONS: From the centre of Bridport travelling east, take the first left off the roundabout onto Sea Road North (Beaminster Road). Take the first right into Jessopp Avenue and the property will be found on the right-hand side on the level entrance to the estate.
