The Property - Long Barn is a charming, classic end of terrace, period thatched cottage with the benefit of a substantial stone barn building, in the heart of this highly sought after, picturesque, village. It is understood to date back over 200 years and is not listed. The property has a very interesting history, being formerly a village shop, a fossil shop and an antiques shop.
In very recent years, the cottage has been the subject of an extensive programme of refurbishment and alteration to now offer very well appointed accommodation with very up to date amenities.
The many excellent features include a well equipped quality kitchen with Lamona electric oven, electric ceramic hob and slimline dishwasher, attractive modern bathroom and shower room fittings, oil-fired central heating with external boiler, Karndean flooring and fitted carpets.
Accommodation - The very well presented accommodation enjoys views over the village to the church and the adjoining river and nearby playing fields.
Briefly, the accommodation extends to:
Ground floor - Hall, living room, family/dining room, uPVC conservatory, kitchen/breakfast room, shower room/utility.
First floor - Landing, two bedrooms, bathroom.
There is also the unusual added benefit of the large stone barn building, offering great garaging/storage facilities with potential for additional accommodation or possibly an annexe, subject to the relevant planning consents.
Outside - A 5-bar gate leads onto a large tarmac driveway/parking/courtyard area (subject to rights of way for the three neighbouring properties). There is parking for two/three cars which is a rarity in the village.
Immediately adjoining the cottage is a paved terrace with low stone natural walls. Just across the courtyard is a further attractive courtyard garden with raised beds and trellis. The cottage also has riparian river rights .
Holiday Letting Business/Potential - A very successful holiday letting business was operated until very recently. A very healthy revenue was generated. Further information upon request.
Situation - Long Barn is ideally located in the heart of Burton Bradstock, one of the area's most popular villages, within the West Dorset Are of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). This picturesque village includes the National Trust Hive Beach, with its popular cafe/restaurant, which forms part of the beautiful World Heritage Jurassic Coast. The village also has excellent amenities including a garage/shop, Post Office, public houses, church, village hall, library and primary school. The village centre is a Conservation Area. There is a regular bus service. The thriving historic town of Bridport is very nearby. Dorchester and Weymouth are both within 15 miles with rail services to London.
Services - Mains electricity, water and drainage. Oil-fired central heating (external boiler and recently replaced tank).
Viewings - Strictly by appointment through Stags Bridport

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
