Description

A range of substantial buildings including a stone barn, ripe for development in the centre of Bridport town.

The Property - A range of buildings situated in a tucked away location within the centre of Bridport town.

Accommodation - 94 East Street is discreetly positioned behind East Street itself and comprises a collection of eight individual buildings and spaces including an attractive former stone barn. Subject to the necessary planning consent being obtained, the site is considered to offer excellent redevelopment potential, with proposals suggesting the conversion of the existing buildings into four residential units. The property is conveniently located within easy walking distance of the town centre and its amenities. The site benefits from three-phase electricity, mains gas and mains drainage connections.
The stone barn is situated towards the rear of the plot and enjoys an adjoining area which could provide an attractive private garden space backing onto the River Asker, subject to the relevant planning permissions.
Indicative drawings have been prepared to illustrate the potential development opportunity.

Outside - On East Street, double gates open under number 96 East Street onto a driveway that gives right of way to a set of wrought iron gates. Beyond the gates the driveway is owned in its entirety by the property. To the rear of the barn component there is an area of garden with the benefit of pedestrian access onto the pathway behind that leads down to the River Asker.

Situation - The property is situated in the centre of the bustling and vibrant market town of Bridport. Bridport has a history of rope-making and is now a gateway to the Jurassic, World Heritage coastline at nearby West Bay. It has a variety of independent shops, supermarkets, public houses and restaurants catering for a range of tastes and excellent arts and music events. Bridport is conveniently placed for Dorchester and Weymouth to the east and Axminster to the west. Walking, water sports and riding opportunities are plentiful in the area, with many walks starting from the town itself. Communication links are good with road links along the A35 and mainline stations at Maiden Newton, Dorchester, Axminster and Crewkerne.
