An attractive spacious and well appointed individual detached house in one of Bridport's most sought after roads close to the town centre

The Property - 161a Victoria Grove is an attractive, much improved and very spacious, individual detached house with a sunny west facing rear garden in the highly sought after road of Victoria Grove, very conveniently situated not far from the town centre and close to schools and open countryside. The house was built in the former grounds of the neighbouring Edwardian house some 33 years ago and has colourwash rendered and brick faced elevations.

There is the benefit of gas-fired central heating (boiler replaced 2023), water softener (2022), uPVC sealed unit windows, modern bathroom with power shower and modern en-suite shower room.

Under the current ownership since 2015, the house has been subject to an extensive number of alterations and improvements to include opening up of the former living room and dining room to create one large room with bi-folding doors out onto the balcony, conversion of one of the garages to provide a large playroom/additional reception room with bi-folding doors onto the garden, new kitchen with quality Howden units, solid oak worktops, electric oven, 5-burner gas hob, cooker hood, integrated fridge/freezer and dishwasher, engineered solid oak flooring to the reception hall and living/dining room plus LED downlighters.

To the rear there are lovely views over the town, taking in the well known viewpoints of Allington Hill, Eype Down and Thorncombe Beacon.

The well presented spacious accommodation extends to:

Ground floor - Entrance lobby, reception hall, cloakroom, large living/dining room with access to full width balcony, kitchen/breakfast room
First floor -Landing, principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, three further bedrooms, bathroom.
Lower Ground floor - Lobby/hall, playroom/living room/cinema room, utility, integrated garage

Planning Permission - Planning permission was passed in April 2023 (Application P/HOU/2023/01040) for a large rear single storey extension to provide a new open plan living/dining/kitchen and store, with large balcony over.

Outside - To the front there is a gravelled parking area for two cars and to the side vehicle access (shared/joint ownership with No. 161) through bi-folding entrance gates onto rear parking and access to the integrated garage. The rear garden is a further feature being west facing and attractively laid out, including timber decking, gate with arbour, large area of lawn, raised bed together with apple and pear trees, two timber sheds (climbing frame and Wendy house available by negotiation).

Situation - Victoria Grove is one of Bridport's most sought after addresses owing to its position within level walking distance of the town centre and easy access to open meadows and countryside. There are also two well regarded primary schools very nearby. Bridport is a thriving and historic town with a twice weekly market, as well as regular farmers' and monthly vintage markets, and offers a range of quirky and artisan local shops. Bridport's many amenities include restaurants, hotels, cinema, art/leisure centre, supermarkets, museum, health centre and excellent primary and secondary schools. West Bay, with its harbour, bathing beaches and access to the World Heritage coast, is just to the south. The larger centres of Dorchester, Yeovil and Weymouth are all within easy reach, with mainline rail services to London.

Services - All mains services. Gas-fired central heating.

Viewing - Strictly by appointment with Stags Bridport.

Directions - From Bridport Town Hall, follow West Street and take the 1st available turning on the right into Victoria Grove. The property is situated after about 0.3 miles on the left.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    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
