3 bed detached house for sale

Axminster Road, Charmouth, Bridport DT6

Substantial three bedroom detached house in need of refurbishment with a large garden and parking all the short step to the beach, two public houses and some shops.

The Property

Homedale is believed to have been built in the 1930s and has newly painted rendered elevations under a slate roof. Typical of houses that were built before the Second World War the property has an air of substance with an attractive open fireplace in the sitting room, picture rails in many of the rooms giving character and floors laid to substantial original boards throughout. The property is however now in need of revitalisation with the exception of the windows which have been replaced throughout with up-to-date UPVC double glazing. Add the beach, a number of local hostelries and some shops all within working walking distance and you have an attractive proposition.

The property is simply laid out with a formal reception hall to the front of the house besides which there is a sitting room that has the focal point of a fireplace and runs from the front to the rear of the original footprint of the house. Sliding doors to one end lead through to a garden room/conservatory with a doorway to one side through to a kitchen and a utility room off which there is a cloaks/shower room.

Upstairs there are three good bedrooms and a family bathroom while within the roof there is a substantial area of boarded space ripe for conversion into a bedroom subject to obtaining necessary building consents. The property has gas fired central heating that hasn’t been used for some years.

Outside

To the front of the property to one side there is a driveway providing parking for two or three cars. To the rear of the house a paved terrace stretches the width of the house leading down onto the gardens. The gardens are a particular feature of the property with a mature maple and a mature walnut tree taking centre to stage with the majority of the garden laid to lawn with an attractive ornamental pond midway down the garden. Within the garden there is a useful timber garden shed and 2 hard stands for either sheds or greenhouses.

Situation

This home is situated in the delightful village of Charmouth, which is a small village set on the Jurassic Coast, offering an outstanding natural beauty of its own with its award-winning beach. The local shops, beach, children's playground and two pubs are all within walking distance.
