The Property - A very attractive, individual detached chalet style house, set in well stocked south facing gardens and enjoying great views in a peaceful and highly favourable position, only a few minutes walk of Bridport town centre. The property was understood to have been built in 1939, having rendered and colour washed elevations. It enjoys a very sunny south facing rear aspect with lovely views over the town, the town hall and surrounding hills including the well-known viewpoint of Thorncombe Beacon. The house is now in need of general updating and offers excellent potential for alteration of the layout, enlargement or possibly complete redevelopment.

Modern amenities include gas fired central heating and replacement part leaded light style sealed unit windows. Original features include panelled doors and fireplaces.

The principle accommodation enjoys the south facing rear aspect and briefly extends to:
Ground floor entrance lobby, reception hall, living room with fireplace (currently covered), separate dining room with fireplace incorporating wood burning stove, lean to timber conservatory, kitchen, bathroom and separate w.c.
First floor landing with walk in attic, large principle bedroom with under eaves storage cupboards and two smaller bedrooms again with under eaves storage areas.

The house stands on a good sized plot with very attractive well stocked south facing gardens and off road parking with potential to build a garage, subject to any necessary planning consent.

Agents Note - There has been movement to some of the internal walls and a professional survey has been undertaken. It is considered that the movement is historic. A copy of the survey is available on request.

Outside - There is off road parking/driveway area for 2 cars with potential for the building of garaging within the side/west garden.

The lovely gardens are a further big selling feature of the property, being south facing, very well stocked and again enjoying the attractive town and country views. Features include a brick paved terrace with pergola, areas of lawn interspersed with a wide variety of shrubs and trees, timber shed and useful basement store (restricted head height).

Situation - Bedford Place is one of Bridport's most sought after addresses owing to it's position within easy reach of the town centre. It is just a short walk down Barrack Street or through Millennium Gardens and Downes Street into East Street and the main centre. Millennium Walk is also very nearby- a delightful foot path over Coneygar Hill. Bridport is a thriving and historic market town well known for it's wide streets. There is an excellent range of shopping, business and leisure facilities including restaurants, hotels, a cinema, arts centre, museum, farmer's and vintage markets. The town is well served by Primary Schools and a Secondary School. West Bay with its bathing beaches and access to the World Heritage Jurassic Coast is only a few miles to the south. The large centres of Dorchester, Yeovil and Weymouth are all within easy reach with mainline rail services to London.

Services - All mains services. Gas fired central heating.

Viewings - Strictly by appointment with Stags, Bridport.

Directions - On foot, proceed along East Street and take a left turning (by Central News) into Barrack Street. Take the second left into Bedford Place and the property can be found after a short distance on the left.

By car, from Bridport town centre, go along East Street to the roundabout and take the first exit signed 'Beaminster'. Take the next turning left into St Andrews Road which eventually merges into Barrack Street. Turn right by Port Bredy into Bedford Place.
