The Property - A very attractive, substantial and well appointed individual detached character house in a great location mid way between Bridport and West Bay, enjoying close proximity to the bustling heart of town, as well as the stunning seaside resort and beaches. The house was believed to have been built in the 1930s by a builder for his daughter and has colour washed and pebbledash elevations. It enjoys an east/west facing aspect with fine views over the Brit Valley to West Bay and sea glimpses from the upper floors. Within the last 12 years, the house has been subject to extensive refurbishment and enlargement, professionally undertaken to a very high standard.

The many impressive features include: gas fired central heating, UPVC sealed unit windows/doors, PV panels generating excellent income, fitted kitchen with contemporary units, granite worktops and quality appliances, solid oak flooring virtually throughout the whole ground floor, attractive quality bathroom and shower room fittings featuring travertine stone tiles, security alarm system and mains operated smoke alarm. The house also benefits from recent re-roofing with man made slate, landscaping of the rear gardens and planning permission was passed for a new attached garage (now lapsed although should not be a problem to obtain consent again).

The beautifully presented accommodation is extensive and versatile, being arranged over three floors. On the ground floor is a good sized reception hall, cloakroom (with potential for creating a further en-suite shower room to the adjoining dining room if required), dining room, living room with bay window, large open plan living/dining room with feature vaulted ceiling, kitchen/breakfast room with extensive units, granite worktops, Neff twin electric ovens, Neff electric induction hob and Lamona integrated dishwasher along with separate utility room with matching units as kitchen. On the first floor there are four bedrooms (two with en-suite shower rooms) and the family bathroom/shower room. On the second floor is the fifth bedroom or playroom with en-suite shower room.

The lovely landscaped gardens are a further feature, enjoying a sunny west facing rear aspect with attractive views over the Brit Valley.

Outside - The house is set back from West Bay Road with stone front boundary walls and featuring an in and out driveway providing extensive parking, and to the side, potential for garaging. The front is well stocked with shrub borders and there is pedestrian gated access to both sides of the house.

The rear garden has been professionally landscaped to a very high standard. Immediately adjoining is a raised paved terrace with stainless steel railings and glass. The gardens feature circular lawns, gravelled pathways, paved terrace and very well stocked shrub borders together with a summerhouse. To the side, is a very useful area with 2 timber sheds.

Situation - The house is very well located towards the southern end of West Bay Road, a well established and sought after residential road just to the north of West Bay. It overlooks the Brit Valley with panoramic views over the surrounding countryside to West Bay and Bridport. The property is within a very short walking distance of the coastal resort which lies on the beautiful World Heritage Coast and features a picturesque harbour, bathing beaches and a good range of amenities. There is also an 18-hole golf course. There is easy access to open countryside and a permit is also available for access over the nearby Melplash Show Ground.
