Set on a popular residential street in Weymouth, this five-bedroom detached house delivers flexible family living across four floors and a roof terrace with far-reaching views. The well-kept front and rear gardens, driveway and internal garage add practical outdoor space and parking for daily life. The open-plan kitchen/dining area and adjoining garden room create a sociable hub, while a ground-floor double bedroom and shower room provide useful guest or multi-generational accommodation.
Interior features include a bright living room that opens onto a balcony, four further double bedrooms and a bathroom suite on the top floor. The property benefits from double glazing (installed after 2002) and gas central heating via boiler and radiators. The plot is decent in size with tiered, low-maintenance planting, patios and a pond that together form a pleasant private garden for children and entertaining.
Buyers should note a few pragmatic points: broadband speeds in the area are slow, and local crime levels are reported above average. The house was built in the late 1970s/early 1980s so elements may benefit from updating to suit modern tastes. The multi-storey layout offers privacy and space but may be less convenient for those with limited mobility.
Overall, the property is well suited to growing families who value generous room proportions, outdoor living and strong local amenities, with easy access to Weymouth town centre. Its combination of flexible accommodation, a garage and a roof terrace makes it a compelling family home with scope to personalise and improve.
