Built in 1790, Downe Hall is one of the finest Georgian houses in Dorset. Completely renovated in 2000, it occupies approx. 2.5 acres of remarkably private and tranquil gardens and is situated in the heart of Bridport.

No 10 is the first floor apartment occupying the classic 'piano nobile' position of a Georgian house, thus having the traditional high ceilings, classically framed windows and Juliet balconies which make the most of the south-facing site and offer extraordinary views towards the coast.
Entering into the GALLERY HALL after the communal hallway you are immediately taken back by the vast amount of space this property has to offer. The beautiful hallway, complemented with Oak flooring, high ceilings and bespoke stained-glass artwork sets the scene for the entire apartment, showing off its generous proportions as well as exquisite presentation.

In a clockwise direction the SITTING ROOM is found first which enjoys a southerly aspect, and views of the beautiful gardens is the ideal place for relaxing after a walk to the beach or entertaining friends after a short jaunt into town. The feature fireplace, Juliet balconies, wall lights and ceiling rose let the room stand out and make it one of the favourite rooms in the home. The DRAWING ROOM, complete with decked balcony, oak flooring and wall lights could be utilised as a home office, you just may not get much work done as the stunning view my get a little too distracting.

The heart of any home is the kitchen and the KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM is no exception. Natural light floods in from the superb dual South facing windows which also open onto Juliet balconies. Built in NEFF™ appliances including an induction hob and high-level double oven along with an abundance of worktop space and an island unit will entice the most budding of chefs to this fantastic room.

The FAMILY BATHROOM is found next offering the best of both worlds as it is fitted with a bath and separate double shower. This part tiled room also has a heated towel rail, W.C, pedestal wash hand basin and a shaver point.

The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM with its built-in storage options, wall lights and window to the rear aspect boasts an updated EN-SUITE as an additional bonus. This beautifully designed en-suite comprises of a walk-in double shower, floating W.C. and sink, chrome heated towel rail, inset shelving, stunning tiled walls and even has a light up/demist mirror to finish off this stylish room. The wonderfully curved BEDROOM THREE/ DINING ROOM has tiled flooring, two built in storage options as well as a window to the rear aspect. This room like many others could be use in all matter of ways creating a very versatile home.

Concluding the accommodation, BEDROOM TWO with its picture rails, two built in storage options and window to the rear offers a tranquil retreat whist the vast space it offers allows this to become a comfortable twin room with ease.

Outside
Head outside and you will find to the rear is the generous semi-circular residents' parking bay. A locked gate leads onto a nearby footpath which takes you directly into the town centre or gives you access to countryside walks that are on your doorstep. There is a GARAGE with an up-and-over door and overhead storage space, located in a block to the rear of the property.

Last but not least we come to the WINE CELLAR which is accessed via a communal hallway and offers two front aspect windows, light, power and flagstone flooring.

The stunning gardens are maintained beautifully and offer residents the opportunity to wander round talking in the biodiversity and wonders that nature brings.

The grounds are maintained communally, with costs shared between the Hall and a small number of houses in the grounds.
