Set on Bridport’s historic South Street, this Grade II listed mid-terrace cottage blends Georgian charm with versatile, three-storey living. Period features include high ceilings, sash windows, decorative fireplaces and engineered oak floors; the house also benefits from useful outbuildings and a separate, secluded garden sanctuary planted with fruit and established shrubs.
The layout suits families or someone seeking a home-with-workspace: two principal bedrooms plus an upstairs sitting room or third bedroom/office, a bespoke kitchen, and an upstairs ensuite cloakroom. Practical modern comforts include a Vaillant combi boiler, secondary glazing to some windows and good broadband and mobile coverage.
Important considerations: the listed status will restrict external and some internal alterations and may complicate maintenance or extension plans. The building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation and may need thermal upgrades. The town-centre location means a small plot and limited immediate parking; the wider area records above-average crime and local deprivation indicators.
For buyers who value character, proximity to shops, cinema and community facilities, and a private garden oasis within walking distance of coast paths and West Bay, No.79 offers rare period appeal. The property has been well maintained but suits purchasers who understand the implications of historic listing and period-property conservation work.
