Dodhams Farm Close, Bradpole, Bridport, DT6

An attractive and well proportioned detached house in modern cul-de-sac on the northern fringe of Bridport with sunny garden, garage and extensive parking area

SITUATION: The property occupies a shaped corner plot within this small modern development tucked quietly off the access road to the Sir John Colfox School with open fields closeby with many footpaths over scenic countryside. The centre of the adjoining village of Bradpole has good community spirit, a Parish Church, village hall, Kings Head pub and butcher's shop and there is a large recreational ground. There is also a regular bus service into the vibrant town of Bridport some 1.8 miles to the south.

The coast at West Bay lies some 2.4 miles to the south with its fishing and boating harbour, beaches and gateway to the Jurassic Coastline and South West Coastal Paths.

THE PROPERTY is a detached house of traditional construction dating from the mid-early 1990's featuring reconstituted stone elevations under a pitched and shaped concrete tiled roof with lean-to roof over the front providing a porch and entrance to the garage. The property benefits from uPVC double-glazed windows and a mains gas-fired boiler.

The property has been considerably updated over recent years with a replacement kitchen with mainly built-in appliances, new uPVC double glazed doors opening to a paved patio, modernised bath and shower room suites and decor and recently installed PV panels on the roof owned outright. There is still some scope for putting one's own stamp on the property with cosmetic improvements.

There is a large paved driveway providing parking for some 3/4 cars and there is an enclosed, well established sunny garden extending to the south.

The seller is offering a "no forward chain" situation.
