SITUATION: The property is located in a terrace of cottages forming part of a historic street scene raised up and set back from the lane. The ancient village hall is a few minutes' walk away as is the Parish Church, a working man's club and a recreational field, the venue of the annual village picnic. There is also a butcher's shop, bus stop and pub within the village and the Sir John Colfox Secondary School is just a walk away.

There are many scenic footpaths and cycle routes to be enjoyed over the surrounding countryside and along a hard surfaced footpath/cycle route into Bridport town centre some 2 miles to the south and joining similar paths to the coast at West Bay another 2 miles further on where there is a fishing harbour/golf course and access to the Jurassic Coastline and South West Coastal Paths.

Bridport is a highly vibrant town with a twice-weekly street market, artists' and vintage quadrant, art centre, Electric Palace theatre/cinema, leisure centre with indoor swimming pool, highly reputed and diverse range of eateries and also music venue. The central Bucky Doo Square hosts bands, festivals and events all year round.

THE PROPERTY comprises a charming period terraced cottage which is not Listed and features stone elevations under a slate roof. Internally, the property has been sympathetically and tastefully renovated throughout in vintage style with a prevalence of natural wood creating a perfect blend of history providing character and modern lifestyle requirements.

The additional occasional room in the roof space is a bonus whilst the delightful uphill sloping terraced gardens offer serviceable outside space providing for cultivation and a sanctuary for enjoying plants, bushes and small trees throughout the seasons.

The recent construction of a substantial detached chalet to the far end of the garden in a tranquil setting offers annexe accommodation, work from home office space or for an artists'/craft studio and there is a storage shed/man cave.
