Preston, Weymouth, Dorset

This attractive detached bungalow constructed of brick and stone-effect panel elevations beneath a tiled roof, is set in generous gardens and is situated in a slightly elevated position within this sought after, quiet residential area.

The property is double glazed throughout and has benefited from some thoughtful upgrades, including a stylish new bathroom fitted in 2024. The soffits, guttering and fascias were renewed in 2025, and the loft has been insulated to enhance energy efficiency and year-round comfort.

The front door opens into the ENTRANCE HALL, a light and practical space. From here, doors lead through to the principal accommodation, creating a natural flow. A useful fitted cupboard provides storage space for coats and shoes, while a further shelved recessed cupboard is ideal for linens. Additionally, there is access to the loft.

At the heart of the home lies the impressive triple aspect SITTING/DINING ROOM, occupying the full depth of the property and enjoying views to three sides. A striking picture window to the front floods the room with natural light whilst framing the front garden. The coal-effect living flame gas fire provides a welcoming focal point, creating a cosy atmosphere during cooler evenings. With ample space for entertaining family and friends, there is plenty of room for a full dining table and chairs. Draw the curtains, and the space transforms into an intimate and relaxing retreat.

The KITCHEN is positioned to the rear and is fitted with cream coloured base and wall units beneath a granite-effect worktop. Appliances include a slot-in Hotpoint Ultima four-ring gas stove with oven and grill, with extractor over. There is space and plumbing for a washing machine, plus space and connection for a fridge/freezer. Tiled splash backs complement the practical layout, while a stainless-steel sink with single drainer sits beside the rear window. A part glazed uPVC door provides direct access to the rear garden. A tall cupboard houses the Capriz Heat Line combination gas boiler. The wood-effect flooring, and a radiator complete the room.

The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM located to the rear, is a spacious double overlooking the garden, offering a peaceful setting. The SECOND BEDROOM, a comfortable small double positioned to the front, also enjoys attractive garden views. The fully tiled BATHROOM features a white suite comprising a panelled bath with wall mounted shower and pivot screen, W.C, pedestal wash-hand basin, and an upright radiator with towel rail, illuminated by a front-facing obscure glazed window.

Outside

Trees, including a willow and a laburnum, add form and seasonal colour. A gated path leads to the low maintenance enclosed rear and side gardens, complemented by paved terraces and raised shingle areas with borders featuring skimmia, hebe, euonymus, fig and palm, providing a sunny sheltered spot for relaxing, entertaining or to catch the last of the sun.
