Description

Step into a piece of history with this Grade II listed Gothic Revival home, first listed in 1953 and built circa 1830-1840. Extensively and sympathetically renovated to blend period charm with modern comforts. It features elegant wooden floors, high ceilings, and original Lancet windows with shutters that add to the home's timeless appeal. The property is spread over three floors, offering ample space and luxurious living. With a rich history, Wellington House has functioned as a home, guest house, and offices, making it a versatile and storied residence.

Upon entering through the porch, you are greeted by stunning stained-glass windows and original floor tiling, setting the tone for the grandeur that follows. A large hallway with a grand staircase provides a statement of elegance.

The ground floor boasts four large reception rooms, most adorned with period fireplaces, creating warm and inviting spaces for relaxation and entertaining. These versatile rooms can be adapted to suit your lifestyle, whether you need a home office, a playroom, or a music room. The SITTING ROOM, with its open fireplace, provides a cosy atmosphere perfect for family gatherings. The DINING ROOM, ideal for hosting dinner parties, shares in elegant wooden floors and high ceilings that add to the home's timeless appeal.

The modern, stylish KITCHEN is equipped with sleek cabinetry, extensive cooking appliances, and a kitchen island that serves as a hub for casual dining and additional storage. Adjacent to the kitchen is a BREAKFAST ROOM that opens into a large, elegant CONSERVATORY, offering a seamless flow of space and natural light. Wooden flooring throughout the ground floor adds a touch of elegance and continuity. A UTILITY ROOM adds further convenience, while a rear lobby with ample storage ensures a clutter-free living space. A SHOWER ROOM completes the ground floor, offering additional functional spaces.

Ascend the imposing staircases to the first floor, where you are greeted by a grand landing area that exudes a sense of space and light. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is a true retreat with its own ENSUITE BATHROOM. Four additional BEDROOMS provide ample accommodation for family and guests. The spacious ATTIC ROOM, with its large window overlooking the garden and offering views to Portland, is a versatile space that could serve as an additional bedroom, office, playroom and with superb light even an artist studio.

About DOMVS, Weymouth

The DOMVS Approach to Selling Property

We always start with a clear strategy. We take time to understand your home, the local market and buyer behaviour, ensuring pricing and positioning are right from the outset. Every step in the process is meticulously considered, from presentation and marketing through to negotiation and completion.

We get that no two homes are the same, and neither is the way they should be launched. We tailor the approach to suit the property, whether that is a full market launch, an ‘offers over’ strategy or a discreet introduction through our Whisper List. Our role is to generate the right level of interest and convert that into a successful sale.

Once a sale is agreed, our dedicated sales progression team works proactively with all parties to resolve issues early and maintain momentum. This combination of preparation, negotiation and progression is what protects your sale and delivers results.

Our approach is shaped by three core values: integrity, empathy and determination. We give clear, honest advice, understand the personal nature of moving, and remain focused on securing the strongest outcome for our clients.

Our Marketing

Every property benefits from professional photography, carefully written descriptions and, where appropriate, enhanced visuals such as drone footage or virtual staging. This is supported by our in-house marketing team, who deliver targeted campaigns designed to reach an engaged and relevant audience. Our sellers benefit from:

• A fully optimised website attracting an average of 20,500 visitors each month

• Targeted email and digital campaigns to a database of over 20,000 engaged subscribers

• Social media activity generating over 60,000 monthly views and thousands of website visits
