Description
A fine period stone house occupying a picturesque setting in the highly sought after coastal village of Burton Bradstock. EPC: Exempt - Grade II Listed.
The Property - Shadrach House is a very attractive attached house with large walled west-facing gardens, in a picturesque setting within the heart of this highly sought after village lying on the Jurassic Coast. The house was formerly part of a farmhouse, dating back to the early 19th century and is Grade II Listed, of architectural or historic importance. It is principally built of natural stone. Over the years it has been subject to ongoing refurbishment/improvement and is very well cared for.
The house offers extensive and versatile accommodation, being arranged over three floors, with a very generous net floor area of around 2456sqft. There is potential for the creation of an annexe. Lovely views are enjoyed, particularly from the upper floors, over the church, the village and the surrounding countryside.
The house still retains a whole number of character features, typical of its age and type, including an inglenook fireplace, beamed ceilings, window seats and timber windows.
Modern amenities include gas-fired central heating, well equipped kitchen and attractive bathroom fittings.
The accommodation extends to:
Ground floor - Sitting room, dining room, kitchen, cloakroom, utility, family room
First floor 1 - Landing, 2 bedrooms, bathroom
First floor 2 - Landing, bedroom, shower room
Second floor - Two interconnecting bedrooms
Outside - To the rear of the house is a detached double garage.
The house stands slightly set back and elevated from the lane, enclosed behind stone walls. The front garden is attractively laid out and designed for ease of maintenance. There is a side pedestrian gate/access. The rear garden enjoys a very sunny west-facing aspect. Immediately to the rear of the property is a paved terrace and steps lead to the principal garden, which is down to level lawn interspersed by mature shrubs, trees and flowers. The garden is large for a village home and enjoys a good degree of privacy.
Situation - Shadrach House enjoys a beautiful picturesque setting within the old heart of the village and close to all amenities. Burton Bradstock lies on the coast and is considered to be one of the most sought after and attractive villages in West Dorset. It is a conservation village and the village centre consists of largely stone and thatched cottages/houses, for which the area is particularly well known. The excellent local amenities include a shop/garage, Post Office, library, public houses, church, village hall and primary school plus bus services. There is also the very popular Hive Beach, which forms part of the stunning Jurassic Coast. The immediate locality is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and much of the coastline is either owned or controlled by the National Trust. There are nearby footpaths giving easy access to open countryside, riverside walks down to the beach and clifftops. The thriving historic town of Bridport and the harbour coastal resort of West Bay, with its 18-hole golf course, are both within easy reach and the stunning coastal road is also nearby giving easy access to the larger towns of Dorchester and Weymouth, both with mainline rail services to London.
