SITUATION: The property is located on the eastern side of the iconic South Street, Bridport on the high level pavement, enjoying east/westerly views and is within a Conservation Area. The street accommodates the renowned twice-weekly street market and has St Mary's Church, a recreational area, outdoor bowls' club, community orchard and allotments closeby as well as walkways alongside the river and meadows to Morrisons and onto West Bay. The Leisure Centre is also within easy walking distance with its indoor swimming pool and fitness suites.

Bridport is a vibrant town with art centre, the Electric Palace community theatre, a renowned twice-weekly street market, the artists' and vintage quadrant and Bucky Doo Square in the heart of the town hosts bands, events and festivals all year round.

The coast at West Bay is easily reached via roads and walkways/cycle routes from Bridport and where there is a fishing/boating harbour, beaches and gateway to the Jurassic Coastline and South West Coastal Paths.

THE PROPERTY comprises a double-fronted Grade II Listed town cottage featuring brick elevations under a slate roof with replacement single-glazed wooden windows with secondary glazing to the interior and a new front door. The property further benefits from gas-fired central heating to radiators and providing hot water. There is also an airing cupboard with immersion heater fitted if preferred.

Entering this property is like walking back in time to the 1960's. Obviously well updated at that time, the property continues to feature kitchen and bathroom facilities as well as decor relevant to this time and there is therefore much character to be enjoyed for those who favour vintage. It has been well maintained as required to keep the property usable and watertight but it is fair to say that improvement is now required.

The rear courtyard area is a sun trap and there is rear access to the end of the terrace through a communal passageway to the street.
