High Street Burton Bradstock Dorset

Semi Detached

SITUATION: The property is situated central to the heart of the seaside village of Burton Bradstock, with 2 pubs, village school, recreational play area and football field, convenience store/garage, village stores/sub PO, WI hall and cliff-top restaurant/hotel. The village boasts an active community and there are lots of clubs and events.

Brookside adjoins a brook as it name suggests and is located along the main street, with pavement frontage and is set well back from the coastal road linking Bridport to Weymouth. There are lovely walks into the countryside and to the coast where there is access to the Jurassic Coastline and South West Coastal Path.

This is an area popular for accessing the beach with its Hive Beach cafe and for fossil hunting.

There is a regular bus service into Weymouth (some 10 miles to the east) with its railway station to London, Waterloo and into the vibrant market town of Bridport, famed for its Electric Palace cinema/theatre, art centre and vintage and artists' quadrant with its central Bucky Doo Square hosting bands and events all year round.

THE PROPERTY is one of a pair of impressive semi-detached chalet-style houses built in the 1970's in the hub of the village, featuring stone elevations under a concrete tiled roof with dormer windows to the upstairs rooms providing some charm and character. The accommodation is family-sized and spacious with 3 double bedrooms and 2 toilets.

This has been a long-term holiday retreat, well maintained but little updated and the property would now benefit from some improvement. There are mainly double-glazed windows to the ground floor rooms but the upper floor has timber, secondary-glazed windows. Heating is provided by night storage heaters.

The property benefits from a level enclosed front garden setting it back from the main street, and to the rear, provides a sitting area and garden for enjoying the sunshine with greenery backdrop.

The partly adjoining garage has been divided to provide a small storage space with a separate area to the rear providing a useful workshop area. There is parking on the driveway to the front and a turning area.
