Summary - Atrim Common Cottages, Broadoak, Bridport DT6 5PX
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Three-bedroom period home with large garden and walking on your doorstep.
Rural hamlet location with panoramic Marshwood Vale views
This handsome three-bedroom mid-terrace cottage sits in a tranquil hamlet on the edge of the Marshwood Vale, surrounded by open farmland and outstanding country walks. The property’s strongest asset is its setting — peaceful rural views and immediate access to miles of footpaths and AONB countryside. The plot includes a sizeable rear lawn and potential informal parking within the front garden.
The house offers compact, characterful accommodation over two floors: sitting room with a fireplace and woodburning stove, a fitted kitchen, ground-floor bathroom and three first-floor bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes. Heating is via electric storage heaters; the property runs on mains electricity and water with private drainage.
Important caveats: the cottage needs renovation and the bathroom requires updating. The walls are traditional sandstone/limestone with no assumed insulation, and glazing/overall specification are dated (EPC E). Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is only average — factors to consider for remote working. There is no flood risk and the location has low crime, but buyers should budget for upgrades to heating, insulation, wiring and general modernisation.
This home suits buyers seeking a character rural cottage with scope to improve and personalise, particularly families or those relocating for countryside living. Chain-free sale and a manageable footprint make it practical for anyone prepared to undertake sympathetic renovation to unlock its full potential and panoramic countryside appeal.
