About this property
A rare opportunity to acquire a two bedroom flat in the centre of Branscombe with private off-road parking and only half a mile from the beach.
Summary
Offered for sale with no ongoing chain, this first floor flat forms part of a converted building, with a fascinating and well documented history, having played its part in World War II as a secret munitions factory. One of only four properties, the flat is accessed via a shared entrance with a flight of stairs rising to the first floor. Once inside, an entrance hall has an airing cupboard and there is a pull-down ladder to the loft space. A dual aspect sitting/dining room enjoys a pleasant aspect overlooking The Square and extends to an open plan kitchen. The kitchen looks to the east, with a fine view over neighbouring cottages and hillsides. The kitchen is fitted with a range of units to include a built-in electric oven and hob and with space and plumbing for a washing machine and fridge.
Summary (Cont..)
The main, double bedroom enjoys the front facing aspect over The Square and the second double bedroom is arranged as a twin room with a rear facing aspect. Finally, the bathroom is fitted with a white suite. The property has modern uPVC double glazed windows and electric heating.
