Outside - To the front, a driveway leads from the road to the property and integral store, providing ample parking. There is also a lawned area with mature shrubs and trees. The enclosed rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with well-stocked, mature shrub borders, creating a private and pleasant outdoor space.
Situation - Upwey is surrounded by beautiful countryside and steeped in history and charm. Ideally situated just 3 miles north of Weymouth and 4 miles south of Dorchester.
Local highlights include the Upwey Wishing Well and Tea Room, the historic St. Laurence Church, and two welcoming public houses.
