A substantial charming period cottage in a spectacular beachside location adjoining East Beach, in the highly sought after coastal harbour resort of West Bay on the beautiful Jurassic Coast. EPC: Exempt - Grade II Listed
The Property - Ship Cottage is a substantial attached period cottage/house, occupying a truly stunning coastal beachside location adjoining wonderful East Beach in the highly sought after coastal harbour resort of West Bay on the glorious Jurassic Coast.
The exact age of the property is unknown although believed to date back, possibly, to the 1700s. It is very historic and listed grade 2, of architectural or historic importance. It has main walls of solid stone with lime rendered elevations under a predominantly thatched roof. A whole number of upgrading works have been undertaken during the current ownership of some 35 years although there is still scope for improvement.
There are extensive views over East Beach, the harbour and along the wonderful Jurassic Coast, taking in panoramic Lyme Bay with Portland to the far east and Start Point to the far west.
