Gardenside Charmouth, Bridport, DT6

Detached two bedroom bungalow with potential to create two further bedrooms with wonderful sea views across Lyme Bay.

Introduction
Finches lies in a private road above Charmouth Village affording it some wonderful views across Lyme Bay and the surrounding countryside yet is within walking distance of the beach, a number of good shops and public houses. The property is now in need of updating and refurbishment with potential to create two further bedrooms and a bathroom in the roof space subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents as similar neighbouring properties have done. This really is an opportunity.

Accommodation
The accommodation is simply laid out with the living room taking the best of the views through sliding doors to the front with the focal point of a fireplace equipped with a woodburning stove opposite . Double doors flow through to a bedroom that could be used as a second reception room and also has the sea views through a large picture window. Behind the hallway there is a fully fitted kitchen, a second bedroom and a bathroom. Also on the ground floor, off the kitchen, there is a back hall and a doorway through to an integral garage.

There is a non compliant staircase to the centre of the house that rises up to the first floor which has a large room with a window offering a view at either end and could easily be divided into two bedrooms once a compliant staircase has been put in place. The property has UPVC double glazing and gas fire central heating.

Outside
To the front of the property, the gardens are laid for the most part to lawn with a lovely Apple tree to one side and a number of mature shrubs to the edges. There is parking for a number of cars on a tarmac drive to one side that leads up to the double length garage equipped with an up and over door, light and power. To the rear of the property there is an enclosed garden that at the moment is a blank canvas and enclosed by a combination of timber fencing and stone wall.

Situation
The property is close to the beach in the charming seaside village of Charmouth, which has a number of good shops, public houses and restaurants to its centre as well as a primary school, pharmacy and sports facilities. It 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.
