Set on an elevated plot with sweeping views to Portland and Weymouth Bay, this unique stone chalet-style home combines countryside seclusion with generous living space. The house sits in a large plot with lawns, a paddock, greenhouse and a detached single garage with driveway — ideal for hobbies, storage or easy parking.
Internally the property offers flexible accommodation across three floors: a south-facing sitting room with a large inglenook fireplace, separate dining room, kitchen with breakfast room, four bedrooms (one on the ground floor) and two bathrooms. Two basement rooms accessed from the rear add useful workspace or storage and broaden options for adaptation.
The house has strong period character — exposed beams, slate floors, wooden doors and 1970s fixtures — which will appeal to buyers seeking characterful features. It also presents clear scope for modernization and reconfiguration to create a warmer, more efficient home while retaining its distinctive charm.
Important practical points: the interior is dated and will require updating to contemporary standards; glazing and some fittings pre-date 2002. The property is freehold, heated by mains gas with radiators, lies outside flood-risk zones, and carries an expensive council tax band. These factors should be weighed alongside the location, plot size and panoramic coastal views.
