Spacious 4-bedroom Victorian townhouse, steps from the beach with parking for two cars..
Four large double bedrooms across three storeys
Moments from Weymouth seafront and beach
Off-street parking for two cars (garage/drive)
Two reception rooms plus separate utility room
Large bathroom with bath and separate shower cubicle
Medium flood risk; consider flood resilience measures
Area has above-average crime and high local deprivation
Cavity walls likely uninsulated; energy upgrades advised
Set over three storeys and moments from the seafront, this Victorian end-of-terrace townhouse offers four large double bedrooms and flexible living across two reception rooms. The property benefits from off-street parking for two cars, a modern galley kitchen with separate utility, and a large bathroom with both bath and shower — practical for family life or short-let guests.
The house is freehold, gas‑central heated with a modern boiler and double glazing installed after 2002, reducing immediate running and window-replacement costs. At approximately 1,569 sq ft, the layout provides good living space for its footprint and offers potential to reconfigure or update internal finishes to suit long-term family needs or to boost holiday-let income.
Important considerations: the property sits on a small plot close to the seafront in an area with above-average crime indicators and very deprived local metrics. There is a medium flood risk and the original cavity walls are assumed to lack insulation, so buyers should budget for potential flood mitigation and energy-efficiency improvements. There is only one main bathroom serving four bedrooms, which may be a limitation for larger families.
Overall, this home will appeal to buyers seeking seaside convenience and generous bedroom space who are comfortable with modest ongoing maintenance, targeted upgrades to insulation and flood resilience, and the realities of the local area. It presents clear potential for a practical family home or an income-producing holiday let after sensible investment.
