- Detailed Planning Permission for 4 Cottages
- Peaceful Tucked Away Setting
- In Total About 0.10 Acre

The Development Site - An exciting and unique development opportunity in the heart of Bridport town centre. Detailed planning permission has been passed for two pairs of semi-detached cottages - comprising two new semi-detached cottages and the conversion of the existing barn to provide two further semi-detached cottages.
Planning permission was passed in July 2008 (application number 1/D/08/000627). In total the site extends to about 110' depth x 40' width (33.8m x 12.4m). The footings have been laid for the proposed 2 new builds and the former barn is not listed. There is an archaeological report.
The cottages will all face south with net floor areas of about 545sqft (50sqm) each.
The proposed accommodation will comprise:
Pair of new cottages: ground floor: lounge, inner lobby, kitchen, cloakroom.
first floor: landing, 2 bedrooms, bathroom. About 545sqft.
outside: private courtyard, potential parking spaces.
Conversion of the barn for two new cottages: ground floor: open plan living/kitchen, cloakroom.
first floor: landing, 2 bedrooms, bathroom.
outside: private courtyard, potential parking spaces.
The site has vehicular access off Chancery Lane (the access lane between Chancery Lane and the site also belongs to the development site).
It is considered that the proposed scheme of 4 cottages would be highly marketable and development opportunities of this type are rarely available in Bridport town centre.
The neighbouring lock-up shop (to the rear of 19 South Street) is available to buy and has limited vehicular access off South Street. It would also give the development site pedestrian access to South Street. Guide price £100,000.
Agents' Note - The freeholders of 21 South Street (not the sellers of this land) have a legal right for 2 parking spaces in perpetuity and this must be provided for within the scheme.
Situation - The site is ideally situated in a very convenient town centre location yet being tucked away and quiet with no passing traffic. It is within just a few minute's walk of South Street, East Street and the town centre. Furthermore the delightful water meadows alongside the River Asker are also very nearby, proving excellent walking opportunities.
Bridport is a charming, historic and highly sought-after market town, famed for its wide Georgian streets. There is an excellent range of independent shops, a thriving Arts Centre, cinema/entertainment venue and galleries, together with Waitrose. Bridport is now well known for its food culture with many excellent cafes and restaurants together with a very popular farmers' market. The bustling street market is held every Wednesday and Saturday. Excellent community facilities include a large health centre, modern local hospital, superb leisure centre with swimming pool, gym and sports fields. Tennis, bowls and rowing clubs are also available. Bridport has many clubs and associations.
Bridport is recognised as a gateway town for the world heritage site of the Jurassic Coast and the coastal/beach resort of West Bay is very nearby.

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
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
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
