Features and description
A beautifully renovated Grade II listed five-bedroom Georgian townhouse with a pretty rear garden and artist's studio set in the heart of historic Bridport
THE PROPERTY
Set within one of Bridport's most characterful streets, this wonderful three-storey home has been thoughtfully renovated throughout, displaying a rare balance of flair, functionality and artisanry, now offering generous and versatile accommodation ideal for modern living.
Beyond the traditional façade lies a succession of living spaces, which have been beautifully curated with the hall being no exception, with its decorative tiled flooring and bespoke hand painted wall patterns. At the far end of the hall lies a newly installed shower room in the traditional style, complete with Burlington sanitary ware. The real surprise however is the spacious open-plan kitchen and family dining space appointed with quality fittings and cleverly designed for both everyday life and effortless entertaining. French doors at the end provide a seamless connection to the garden at the rear, giving a sense of inside outside living. A cosy sitting room situated at the front of the house provides a peaceful retreat for evenings in.
Arranged across the upper floors are five well-proportioned bedrooms, each retaining the warmth and character of the period. The first floor also benefits from a newly installed traditional bathroom suite complete with a roll top bath, once again beautifully styled to complement the age of the property while offering modern comfort.
The pretty landscaped rear garden provides a calm and pleasant environment to relax, dine and entertain, with a cobbled terrace and pathway leading to the artist's studio at the very end, complete with water and electricity and its own sunny decked terrace. This makes for an inspiring workspace, garden room, or creative hideaway, and has also been enjoyed by the current owners as an occasional casual dining space.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished Bridport townhouse that seamlessly marries heritage with contemporary living - ready to move into and enjoy.
AGENT'S NOTE: The property is subject to a Section 157 restriction, and has a flying freehold on the first and second floors over the hallway of the neighbouring property.
LOCATION
139 South Street is situated in the heart of the bustling market town of Bridport, within walking distance to local primary and secondary schools, West Bay and the famous Jurassic Coastline - a World Heritage site. Bridport is a most attractive Georgian town that retains an excellent number of independent shops and restaurants, with a vibrant cafe culture as well as a thriving street market on Saturdays and Wednesdays. A choice of supermarkets is available in or around the town including a Waitrose within close walking distance and a Morrisons. There is a cottage hospital, a large medical centre, a popular leisure centre, a successful Arts Centre, two theatres, and a number of independent arts, literary and music festivals held throughout the year.
Much of the countryside is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty where strict planning controls apply to preserve its special character. West Bay is a popular small seaside resort with harbour, shops, restaurants and attractive beach. The Dorset coast is now recognised as a World Heritage Site.
A further wider range of amenities, including a mainline railway station to London Waterloo can be found at the County Town of Dorchester or Crewkerne.
