Characterful stone home with roof terrace and strong rental potential.
Panoramic Lyme Bay and Chesil Bank views from most rooms
Set on Albert Terrace with panoramic Lyme Bay and Chesil Bank views, this traditional Portland stone house offers characterful family living across three floors. Stripped original floorboards, high ceilings and a cosy sitting room with a gas stove create a warm, period feel, while a roof terrace provides a private spot to enjoy sunsets and sweeping coastal outlooks.
Accommodation is versatile: four bedrooms (one currently used as a study), two bathrooms, a light-filled kitchen/dining room and a utility area. A cobbled enclosed courtyard and small front garden offer low-maintenance outdoor space; parking is available along the terrace. Double glazing was fitted after 2002 and the property is heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators.
The house suits a family seeking a compact coastal home or an investor targeting holiday-let income. Its elevated position and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity are strong positives for short-term rental demand. Buyers should note the steep, vertical layout may limit accessibility for those who need level living, and the plot is small with terraced garden areas.
Practical considerations: the area records above-average crime and local deprivation metrics, which may affect insurance and rental pricing; council tax is described as affordable. There is no flood risk recorded. Overall, the property’s exceptional views and character make it a distinctive coastal opportunity, but buyers should budget for any period-property maintenance and consider the location’s socio-economic context.
