A recently refurbished terraced 2 double bedroomed village cottage in busy coastal village with good facilities close by with small and sunny outdoor space

SITUATION: The property forms part of the period street scene with pavement frontage from the main A35. The village PO/convenience store, village hall and 2 pubs are within a few minutes' walk away and there are close by direct walks to the coast at Seatown which is highly renowned for its uncommercialised beach and the Anchor Inn.

This is a very popular area for walking with Langdon Hill (famed for its bluebells), Golden Cap and St Gabriel's Bay all within easy reach. This is a perfect location for holidays or permanent living and Chideock has a very active local community. There is also a coastal bus service with bus stop closeby into Bridport (2 miles to the east) or Lyme Regis (approx 6 miles to the west).

Whether fossil hunting, accessing the South West Coastal Path or looking for fine dineries - this area provides all and more. Felicity's farm shop is also less than a mile away.

THE PROPERTY has undergone a quality refurbishment to provide a sympathetic harmony of period features and modern lifestyle requirements. The cottage dates from the 1800's and has an attractive street appearance with mainly cut stone elevations under a slate roof and has a lean-to extension at the rear, with outside door and steps leading to a small outside space. The rooms are of a good-size and ceiling height , facing mainly south attracting a good degree of natural light to the interior.

The property has a mains gas-fired boiler in the roof space, mainly double-glazed windows, new shower room and kitchen facilities and also newly fitted carpets upstairs and was re-wired in 2021.

Some attention to detail has provided some exposed stonework and a prevalence of wood. It is thought that this new refurbishment will be appealing for permanent living/long term letting or for a retreat/holiday let. There is no forward chain and the seller is offering furniture and fittings by separate negotiation if required.

THE ACCOMMODATION comprises the following:
Two steps up to the full timber front door to:
ENTRANCE HALL with ceramic tiled floor, high-level electric consumer unit, coat peg rack and doors either side to the KITCHEN/DINING ROOM and to the:
SITTING ROOM with large sash-style window to the front with venetian blind fitted and featuring a fine stone open fireplace with canopy fitted and wooden beam over and on a raised stone hearth. The wooden balustraded staircase rises to the first floor with a stone display niche in the wall below. Door to rear porch/utility.
KITCHEN/DINING ROOM extending from front to rear with windows on both sides.
THE KITCHEN is galley-style and is beautifully presented with solid wood surfaces over base units and including a butler sink with Grohe mixer tap and window above to the rear courtyard, an induction hob and fan-assisted oven.

THE DINING AREA lies to the front side of the kitchen practical for ease-of-use and full enjoyment of the cooking/eating experience.
