3 Bed Detached House For Sale

The best of both worlds - a detached bungalow set in quiet, peaceful location, within a short walking distance of Bridport town centre and Dorset’s charming countryside.

The Property - Situated on a popular residential road close to Bridport town centre with countryside walks on the doorstep, this 1960s bungalow offers privacy within its spacious plot. A prime location with the potential for extension and further development.

Inside, the accommodation is bright and spacious. Branching off the hall, there is a generously proportioned open-plan lounge and dining area with a feature fireplace. This leads on to a well-equipped kitchen, with gas hob and electric double oven, dishwasher, washing machine and two fridge freezers. The adjoining conservatory has elevated views into the garden and surrounding trees. On the right-hand side of the property, the principal bedroom benefits from built in wardrobes, and overlooks the sunny patio area.

Full of wonderful wildlife visitors, the garden would be ideal for a family, or for a keen horticulturalist to expand their ambitions. At just under 40 metres in length, it would easily accommodate a substantial home office or outbuilding inaddition to the current shed and greenhouse.
