SITUATION: The property forms the end-terrace of a small row of cottages with gable end onto the quiet backwater lane of George Street close to the very heart of the coastal village of West Bay. This is a small but bustling fishing village with ancient fishing harbour, kiosks, holiday park with indoor swimming pool, beaches and access to the Jurassic Coastline and South West Coastal Paths. The area caters for many marine and seaside leisure activities including a well supported gig-rowing club, all-year swimming club, canoeing, boating trips and paddle-boarding. There are many events throughout the year including speed-boat racing, fireworks displays, raft race, Boxing Day swim and summer fairground. There are amusements, a good recreational play area, regular car boot sale, discovery centre/museum, vintage emporium and eateries of all sorts including 3 pubs and this is a motor-bikers' paradise. There is also a Golf Club on East Cliff.

The close by and vibrant market town of Bridport lies some 2 miles to the north accessed via a direct cycleway/footpath provided as well as bus services. Bridport has a wealth of cultural and creative organisations including a twice-weekly street market, vintage and artists' quadrant, the Electric Palace Theatre/Cinema and the central Bucky Doo Square which hosts bands and events all year round.

THE PROPERTY comprises an end-terrace Grade II period cottage with gable end onto George Street featuring rendered and colourwashed elevations under a slate roof with slated single-storey extension to the rear over the rear hallway and bathroom.

The property has been in the same ownership since 1969 and has been well maintained and updated over the years as necessary but there is now some scope for further improvement. The property has had new sash windows to the front, the chimney has been re-built together with repairs to the gable wall and there is a modern bathroom suite downstairs.

There are gardens to the front and rear, all hardlandscaped but providing pretty outside sitting areas enjoying sunshine all day long.

To the far front boundary is a courtyard area providing access to the end garage of a block of three with adjoining walled compound area.

The property is a gem of a cottage ticking most of the boxes of discerning buyers. It has history having been a fisherman's cottage, is full of charm, has garden and garage and the contents are available for purchase subject to separate negotiation, thus providing a holiday retreat immediately useable and with no forward chain.
