GUIDE RANGE: £250,000 - £275,000. For sale by Public Auction and via Livestream on Thursday 25 July at 2.00pm at the Memorial Hall, Sherborne DT9 3AB, unless sold prior. A detached, three bedroom house in need of complete refurbishment.

The Property - The property is believed to be a period property that was substantially extended during the 20th century. The property, now in need of complete refurbishment, sits within a large and rather lovely garden stocked with a wealth of shrubs and trees.

The accommodation briefly consists of a sitting room to the rear of the property, a family room to the centre and a dining room with a fireplace beyond which is a kitchen. To the front, the property has UPVC double glazing and gas fired central heating and is equipped with a combi boiler. The property lends itself to extension and remodelling subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.

Outside - To the front of the property there is a small enclosed garden with a driveway to one side providing parking for the property. The main body of the garden, forming part of Title DT252332, lies on the east side of the property with a formal area of lawn nearest the property below which is an area with a pond as its focal point. Beyond there are two areas of garden. On the south side there is an area which is laid to lawn and planted with a range of shrubs and trees. On the north side there is an area of land with separate Title DT310441 that is laid to pasture and is designated as agricultural land. Please see the plan showing the delineation between garden and agricultural land. Both Titles are to be Transferred to the successful purchaser.

Situation - The property lies just outside the charming seaside village of Charmouth, which has a number of good shops, public houses and restaurants to its centre and lies midway between the former rope-making town of Bridport to the east and the Devon carpet making town of Axminster to the west. The A35 provides the major road link while there are mainline stations at Dorchester and Axminster. Sporting, walking and riding opportunities abound within the area while the world Heritage site Jurassic coastline stretches all the way along Lyme Bay with Charmouth itself being well known for its fossil finds.
