Features and description
A fantastic detached period property with four bedrooms and a one bedroomed annexe, with sea views, set well back from the road a short walk from Bridport and the coast
THE PROPERTY
Well set back from the road first glimpses of this wonderful property are most impressive with its most striking façade constructed of pretty Bath stone under a pitched slate roof. Dating back to 1911, the property is not listed and offers hugely flexible accommodation to suit most families' needs.
On first entering the property there is a real sense of charm and space, with very well-presented accommodation yet totally untainted by inappropriate modernisation. One is immediately greeted by a large hall with beautiful wooden flooring and high ceilings typical of this popular period of architecture. This then leads perfectly into a superb drawing room with a beautiful ornate fireplace and large sash windows boasting far reaching countryside views and even glimpses of the sea. There is also access to a wooden decked terrace ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining, or even an evening cocktail. Also on the ground floor is a TV/snug room, and a cloakroom, and large dining room. The family kitchen is a very good size for a property of this age with stripped wooden flooring and incorporating a number of attractive wall and base units and a six ringed professional Rangemaster cooker. There is also plenty of room for a kitchen / breakfast table.
The principal bedrooms are situated on the first floor, with a large landing and a balcony and four beautiful bedrooms, including a large master bedroom suite with an adjoining Jack & Jill wet room. There is also a sizeable family bath and shower room. The views from up here are incredible over West Bay and the sea and rolling countryside. The property after all is only a short walk from the coast and West Bay with all its fantastic facilities and restaurants.
To one side of the property is a superb one bedroomed annexe ideal for an elderly relative or perhaps a holiday rental.
To the rear of the property are two good-sized stores, two separate garages, and ample parking for a number of cars.
There is also a pretty garden to the front, mainly lawed with lots of places to sit and enjoy the setting.
All in all, this is a truly wonderful family home in an idyllic yet very convenient location.
LOCATION
Brooklands is ideally located between West Bay and Bridport town centre. The famous Dorset Jurassic Coast is a World Heritage Site, and West Bay is a popular and sought-after fishing village with a pretty harbour, popular beaches, and a variety of interesting shops, pubs and restaurants, as well as being the coastal location for the popular television series 'Broadchurch'.
Burton Bradstock, home of the popular Hive Beach Café and Seaside Boarding House, the cliff top creation of the former Groucho Club owner, is just a short drive from the property.
The property is a mile south of the handsome Georgian market town of Bridport, which retains an excellent number of independent shops and restaurants and a thriving street market on Saturdays and Wednesdays. A choice of supermarkets is available in or around the town including a Waitrose 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 festivals are held throughout the year.
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.
