106, North Allington, Bridport, DT6 5DZ

Charming Grade II Listed 3/4 bedroom townhouse with a wealth of character and a beautiful garden, just a short step from Bridport town centre.

The Property The property is believed to date back to the late 18th Century and is Listed as being of historic and architectural interest Grade ll.

The property has over the years been remodelled and extended to create some exceptional living spaces on the ground floor and some good bedroom accommodation on the first.

In recent years the property has been refurbished taking in the electrics, the central heating system including the boiler, the bathrooms and the kitchen with redecoration throughout and the installation of engineered oak flooring in the rear parts of the ground floor.

The property has good ceiling heights and character features that include sash and casement windows, picture rail and open fireplaces to name but a few.

On the ground floor there is a sitting room to the front of the house centred around a fireplace equipped with a wood burning stove which in turn flows through to a spacious fitted kitchen with a second fireplace and space for an everyday dining table to its centre.

Beyond the kitchen lies 2/3 rooms that can be used in any number of ways but at present are used as a garden room to one side providing a daytime living space that flows out to the garden and a studio to the other that in turn gives way to a conservatory that also has double doors onto the garden.

Behind the garden room the passageway leads to a downstairs shower room, beyond which there is access to a garage/workshop.

This has original folding doors to one end onto the street and a useful utility area to the other that houses the washing machine, central heating boiler and hot water tank.

Upstairs there are three good bedrooms, one of which is particularly spacious, served by a family bathroom equipped with a contemporary ball and claw bath and separate shower.

Outside The gardens to the rear are a particular feature of the property and are arranged as a series of rooms, each planted with its own character and designed to create a surprise at each turn.

There is an unusual variety of mature plants, shrubs and trees, calculated to give shape colour and form throughout the seasons.

Nearest the house there is a paved terrace that gives way to a gravel garden.

Beyond there is a pergola-topped area of decking with a vine over providing shelter from the midday sun and giving way to a large timber summerhouse.

Close to the end of the garden there is a magnificent Eucalyptus beyond which there is a sunken garden with an altogether different feel to it, complete with an ornamental pond and a timber garden shed to the corner.

This is a lovely garden that can be enjoyed all year round. To the side of the house there are double doors through the original carriage arch to a narrow garage, suitable for storage or a workshop.
