Description
Handsome three bedroom Grade II listed estate cottage in need of some rejuvenation.
The Dwelling - This property forms part of a terrace of four cottages believed to have been built in the 19th century by the Symondsbury Estate for their farm workers. The property has attractive local stone elevations under a thatched roof and is in need of some updating and refurbishment. The position is outstanding a short walk to the village pub, the Symondsbury Estate complex and Colmers Hill and within short motoring distance of both the beach and Bridport town.
Accommodation - In short the accommodation consists of an attractive living room centred around a fireplace equipped with a woodburning stove which flows through to a kitchen that is fitted to one end with a useful pantry to the other end. There is a practical entrance lobby by the front door while upstairs there are three good bedrooms served by a family bathroom with an electric shower over the bath. The property has electric heating and an immersion heater providing hot water.
Outside - The outside space is all to the rear of the property. Immediately across from the back door there is a useful timber wood shed above which there is a pretty terraced garden with a series of raised herbaceous borders with an attractive terrace that makes an ideal entertaining area during the summer months.
Situation - This property lies within the village of Symondsbury. Here you will find wonderful countryside walks over Colmers Hill and the well established Symondsbury Estate. Yearly events are held at the estate with a cafe, visitors centre and much more. A short walk into the local town of Bridport, this is a bustling and vibrant market town which has a history of rope making and is now a gateway to the Jurassic World Heritage coastline at nearby West Bay. It has a variety of independent shops, supermarkets, public houses and restaurants catering for a range of tastes and excellent arts and music events. There is a good choice of primary and secondary schooling in the area. Communication links are good with road links along the A35 and mainline stations at Maiden Newton, Dorchester, Axminster and Crewkerne.
