Description

A modern terraced 3 bed town house with integral garage, easily maintained south-facing garden tucked away in the heart of Bridport town centre, in need of some improvement

SITUATION: The property lies within a terrace of five set slightly back from Folly Mill Lane in the very heart of the vibrant town centre of Bridport, just a walk away from the mainly independent shops, twice-weekly street market, Art Centre, Electric Palace Cinema/Theatre, artists' and vintage quadrant, restaurants and churches. There are good walks into the meadows, to the hills and to the coast at West Bay which lies some 2 miles to the south, where there is a fishing harbour, beaches and access to the Jurassic Coastline and South West Coastal Paths.

Bridport has also been recently designated as a town of culture, hosting many events and festivals all year round.

DIRECTIONS: From the centre of Bridport walking south, take the first left-hand side road into Folly Mill Lane and the property will be found a short way along on the right-hand side.

THE PROPERTY comprises a mid-terrace house built in 1982 featuring brick elevations under a concrete tiled roof with uPVC double-glazed, latticed windows and integral garage. It is shielded from traffic noise and is quite sheltered enjoying a southerly aspect at the rear. There is a walled level garden.

It is fair to say that the property is now in need of cosmetic improvement with original kitchen and bathroom fittings intact and still serviceable.
