Description

This detached bungalow features three bedrooms and offers captivating views towards West Bay and the sea, making it an intriguing prospect for renovation enthusiasts and investors alike. Elevated in position, the home is nestled between East and West Cliff, providing a serene backdrop while still being conveniently close to the amenities of Bridport. Originally constructed in the 1950s, the property exhibits solid structure but requires some refurbishment to enhance its full potential. The kitchen stands out as a modern highlight, equipped with contemporary floor and wall-mounted units along with essential appliances including a ceramic hob, electric double oven, fridge, freezer, and dishwasher. The central dining hall is functional and leads into multiple living spaces that could be reimagined to suit your vision. The spacious sitting room features a charming brick fireplace with a woodburning stove and opens via sliding doors into the garden—ideal for indoor-outdoor living. A versatile garden room offers extra dining space or could serve other purposes depending on your needs. Downstairs hosts two bedrooms: the principal bedroom boasts extensive built-in wardrobes, while the second bedroom is configured currently as a study. Both are serviced by a fully tiled wet room. An additional double bedroom with its own bathroom completes the upper level. Outside, you'll find generous grounds with an enclosed driveway for several vehicles, complemented by flourishing south-facing gardens. The main garden area is predominantly laid to lawn, dotted with mature fruit trees and bordered by hedges and timber fencing for privacy. The rear also includes useful structures such as two timber garden sheds and a greenhouse. Noteworthy is ‘The Chalet,’ a brick-built outbuilding at the far end of the garden equipped with light and power; this space holds significant potential for use as a workshop or supplementary accommodation. Bridport itself is known for its vibrant community life, offering an array of shops, restaurants, public houses, and cultural events—all within easy reach of this property. As part of Dorset’s historic landscape near the Jurassic World Heritage coast at West Bay, outdoor activities such as walking, golfing, and water sports are plentiful in the area. With convenient road access via the A35 and mainline train stations nearby in Dorchester, Axminster, and Crewkerne, this location combines charm with practicality. This property represents not only a comfortable family home but also an opportunity to invest in an area rich in natural beauty and community spirit—perfect for those looking to apply their creative touch while enhancing value over time.
