THE PROPERTY 62 Crock Lane is a very attractive and fine individual detached house in a well established and popular area within easy reach of Bridport town centre and open countryside. It was built in 1935, having classic colour-washed, pebble-dashed elevations and in recent years has been subject to much enlargement and improvement to a very high standard to create a lovely home of distinction.
The well appointed and proportioned accommodation is arranged over three floors and enjoys a very sunny west-facing rear aspect with far-reaching views over the town, the river meadows and the surrounding countryside, taking in the well known landmark of Colmer's Hill. There are a host of character style features, typical of its age and type, including parquet flooring, stained glass window, panelled doors, high ceilings, picture/plate rails and curved bay windows.
The many excellent features/amenities include gas-fired central heating with updated boiler, wood burner to the living room, PV panels with battery storage, well equipped kitchen with solid painted wood units, hardwood worktops and gas four-oven Aga, quality upgraded bathroom and shower rooms and quality aluminium powder-coated sealed unit windows.
The accommodation is very extensive and versatile, to suit individual requirements. A particular special feature is the stunning oak framed orangery with limestone flooring and bi-folding doors onto the rear garden.
The house is set on a good sized plot and extensive landscaping has also been undertaken.
OUTSIDE The house is set well back and screened behind high hedges, being approached over a tarmac driveway with turning and parking area (potential for garaging, subject to any necessary planning consents), very useful large timber shed for storage, side pedestrian access.
The large rear garden enjoys the very sunny west-facing aspect and lovely views. The gardens are very attractively laid out with lots of interesting detail and features. Large adjoining full width paved terrace with barbeque area, pathways with sleeper borders and steps, further paved terrace with rose-clad pergola, large expanses of lawn with wildflower turf, special grass garden area, apple and pear trees, compost bins and timber shed with power connected.
SITUATION Crock Lane is a well established and highly desirable residential road to the east of Bridport town centre and within easy walking distance over the river meadows.
