A well presented period 1 bed, 2 recep Grade II Listed terraced town cottage along one of Bridport's main streets recently renovated in rustic style with pretty gardens and an outside store/chalet

SITUATION: The property is located towards the end of West Street with a fairly open aspect to the front. It lies within a few minutes' walk of Waitrose, the Post Office, Coach Park, medical centre and dentist's, Balson's Butchers and close to all of the town centre's mainly independent shops, cafe's and restaurants together with the Electric Palace theatre/cinema and Bucky Do Square which hosts a wide range of events and festivals all year round.

There are close by riverside walks leading to the coast at West Bay which forms part of the Jurassic Coastline and has a fishing harbour, beaches and access to the South West Coastal Path.

THE PROPERTY comprises a charming period Grade II Listed town cottage of some considerable age and has been sympathetically modernised over recent years but in keeping with its own characteristics. The property is one of a pair of similar cottages within a terraced street scene with commercial properties close by. The accommodation has been arranged to maximise every space to its fullest potential and so has a sitting room on the first floor. Although the property fronts a street pavement, secondary glazing has recently been installed to the dining room.

The property has historically been used as an art gallery open to the public and later an independent retail shop with it's attractive front window onto the pavement.

The upstairs sitting room was formerly a bedroom and provides the potential to again create a good-sized second bedroom.

DIRECTIONS: From the centre of Bridport walking down West Street, proceed past Waitrose and the property will be found just before the mini-roundabout on the left-hand side.
