Description

This end-of-terrace cottage exudes character and is situated in the sought-after Spring Gardens area, just a short distance from Chesil Beach. With three generously sized double bedrooms and two reception rooms, the property presents versatile living options that can accommodate various lifestyles. The presence of off-road parking is a notable advantage in this popular enclave, often hard to come by in similar properties nearby. The home is located conveniently close to local amenities, public transport links, and scenic coastal walks, making it an attractive option for both residential living and potential rental opportunities. Upon entering, you are greeted by a welcoming porch that leads into a bright sitting room. The large front window allows for an abundance of natural light, creating a warm atmosphere that invites relaxation after a day spent at the beach. Adjacent to the sitting area is a dining room that offers ample space for gatherings or family meals. The galley kitchen features fitted cabinets and sufficient workspace, along with direct access to the rear courtyard garden—perfect for enjoying outdoor moments while cooking or sipping coffee. On the first floor, you will find two spacious double bedrooms. The principal bedroom boasts views toward the Portland cliffs, while the third bedroom can easily serve as a guest room or a home office. An additional staircase leads to the top floor where there’s another comfortable double bedroom with practical eaves storage. The external courtyard garden offers a serene retreat for quiet morning coffees or evening relaxation. At the front of the property, a small garden area complements the off-road parking facility—an especially valuable feature in this location. While this cottage requires some modernization to reach its full potential, it stands as an excellent opportunity for renovation either as a primary residence or as an investment property aimed at short-term or long-term letting. Its proximity to Chesil Beach further enhances its appeal as both a family home and coastal getaway.
