A detached 3 bed bungalow dating from the 1960's with conservatory/utility room, good-sized gardens, garage and parking located within easy walking distance of Bridport town centre

SITUATION: The property is located within the well-established close known as Nursery Gardens which is located at the head of Barrack Street and the join with St Andrews Road very close to the town centre of Bridport and with direct back pedestrian access onto the East Road sculpture garden adjoining the roundabout and with pleasant walks into the town. The property lies in a quiet backwater and side street, popular for those requiring single-storey accommodation within the town precinct.

With easy walks into the town centre and across open green spaces, this is an ideal location for those less agile and there is a shortage of such properties coming to the open market as this area suits those from retirement age well into older age.

Bridport offers a vibrant local community with active organisations and clubs and offers a hub of local hospitality and social recreation. The central Bucky Doo Square hosts bands, charity events and festivals all year round. There is an art centre, the Electric Palace theatre/cinema, vintage and artists' quadrant, a good selection of mainly independent shops, a renowned twice-weekly street market, the Millenium Green, modern medical centre, and dentists' practices.

The coast at West Bay is easily reached by road, footpaths and cycle routes some 2 miles to the south with its fishing harbour, beaches, golf course on East Cliff and access to the Jurassic Coastline and South West Coastal Paths. There are lots of marine and coastal activities to be enjoyed.

THE PROPERTY dates from the 1960's and features stone elevations under a concrete tiled roof. The accommodation offers a spacious 3 bedroom detached bungalow with conservatory/utility addition and a modern kitchen and shower room. However, it is fair to say that some cosmetic improvement would now be beneficial.

The property enjoys good-sized uPVC double-glazed windows affording views to distant hillsides to the east and good natural light flow throughout and a modern gas-fired boiler producing heat and hot water throughout.

The property occupies a very generous plot with well planted areas and large productive allotment garden. The attached passageway adjoins the garage with tandem parking on the driveway in front.
