Features and description

A beautifully upgraded, spacious family 4 double bed/2 bath semi-detached house in idyllic village, together with a large detached modern chalet/studio annex

SITUATION: The property is located on the eastern fringe of the idyllic village of Walditch which has a beautiful ancient tree-lined parkland entrance lane from Bridport and is surrounded by pasture land and woodland. The village has an ancient church and village hall, a green and recreational area and elite real tennis club and the Jellyfields nature reserve on its periphery. The vibrant town of Bridport lies 1.5 miles to the south-west and is an enjoyable 20 minutes' active walk away.

Bridport is a vibrant market town with its comprehensive range of mainly individual shops, renowned twice-weekly street market, art centre, Electric Palace theatre/cinema, vintage and artists' quadrant and leisure centre with indoor swimming pool and fitness suites. The central Bucky Doo Square hosts bands, events and festivals all year round and there are active U3A clubs as well a a wide variety of organisations to suit most leisure interests.

The coast at West Bay lies some 3.5 miles to the south with its harbour, beaches and gateway to the Jurassic Coastline and South West Coastal Paths.

THE PROPERTY comprises a semi-detached 1930's house featuring attractive brick and part-rendered and colourwashed elevations under a slate roof with well matched extension to the rear, now affording a substantial family lifestyle home of the highest specification all presented in excellent and tasteful decorative order and ready to move into without further work. It benefits from double-glazed windows and doors, two multi-fuel stoves, mains gas central heating, mainly engineered oak flooring and modern downlighters, luxury kitchen and bathroom suites, original picture rails and part-pitched beamed ceilings to the upstairs all contributing to its character. The views are unsurpassed with countryside adjoining to the west and pasture/woodland to the east side accommodating sheep and horses.

The property occupies a generous level site with plenty of parking to the front, a patio and level lawn to the rear with a superb modern chalet suitable for home-office/annexe accommodation adjoining the meadows/pasture land to the west and offering a highly desirable outlook.

This is a versatile and cherished home spanning many years of family life, having been created by a tradesman for his growing family who have now flown the nest. The property is subject to a s.157 occupancy for those who have lived or worked in West Dorset for the last 3 years or be coming to the area for employment. Applications for other needs/reasons will be considered. Please ask the Agent for details.
