Description
A substantial, extended four-bedroom detached house, delightfully situated in Overcombe, enjoying far-reaching views across Weymouth Bay and the nearby nature reserve.
Introduction - An individual detached house located in the highly sought-after Overcombe area, just off Bowleaze Coveway, enjoying spectacular sea views across Weymouth Bay and Lodmoor Nature Reserve.
Set on a generous plot with ample parking, the property has been extended to the rear with a two-storey addition, creating an impressive and spacious home, thoughtfully designed to maximise the south-facing sea views.
The Property - A useful entrance porch leads into a cloakroom and reception hall. The ground floor is designed to maximise light and space and is beautifully presented, featuring a spacious open-plan sitting/dining room that flows into a sun room at the rear.
The kitchen/breakfast room is also open-plan and extensively fitted with a modern range of wall and floor units, including a built-in double electric oven and induction hob. Both the kitchen and sitting room provide open access to the sun room, which has doors opening onto the rear garden. From the kitchen, side access leads through to a utility area with further access to the garden.
On the first floor are four bedrooms, three of which are generous doubles. The main bedroom is particularly spacious, with double-aspect windows offering wonderful views. The family bathroom has a contemporary finish and is fitted with an attractive white suite, including a WC, basin with large vanity unit, and bath with shower attachment.
Outside - A spacious brick-paved driveway to the front provides ample off-road parking and leads to an integral garage. The front is complemented by a variety of shrub borders, and pedestrian access leads through to the rear garden. Immediately adjoining the rear of the house is a large timber decked sun terrace, designed to take full advantage of the south- and west-facing aspects. Steps lead down to lawned gardens, thoughtfully planted with a mix of shrubs, small trees, and plants. At the far end of the garden, there is a large workshop with an adjoining patio area.
Situation - The property is situated on the outskirts of Weymouth in one of the area's most enviable locations. It's just a short walk to the dog-friendly beaches at Bowleaze Cove, Preston and Overcombe where there are regular swimmers and this is a great spot for paddle boarding and kite surfing too. There are stunning, countryside walks towards the SW coast path right from the front door and a swim is just minutes away! It's a few minutes' walk to the green, open spaces at Furzy cliff on Bowleaze Coveway and to a choice of cafés overlooking the sea.
The wide range of local amenities is close by including a post office / general store, deli/off-licence, public houses and restaurants. The Preston Road doctor's surgery and chemist is just a mile away by car or 15 mins walk. The bustling and lively town centre is approximately 2 miles away with a comprehensive range of shopping and educational facilities. Its golden sands are regularly featured in the national press winning numerous awards along the way.
Weymouth has a picturesque inner harbour with continental style cafés, a number of boutiques, eateries and bars as well as sports facilities, cinema and theatre venues. Weymouth and Portland boast excellent sailing and water sport facilities and is home to The Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy. The resort is surrounded by beautiful, rolling countryside which can be explored by car or via the many excellent footpaths, bridleways and cycle paths. There are areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty especially those along the World Heritage Jurassic Coastline. The town also benefits from rail links to both London Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads.
