Weymouth, Dorset

WELCOME

A truly stylish and eco-conscious design with compelling sea views towards the Isle of Portland. Completed about 3 years ago by the current owners, this extraordinary home is a unique take on what a coastal property should resemble. Futuristic in design, and bold in stance, the sloped angular roof is mirrored internally, making for a striking visual from the outside, and creating the most dramatic of spaces internally.

At 4,445 sq ft, it is particularly generous and is arranged on three floors with accommodation on the lower ground floor which can be entirely self-contained if desired. There is also a lift shaft for future installation of a lift if required which accesses all three floors (currently used as storage space) ensuring easy accessibility.

Upon entering the property, its distinctive design embraces: the sense of light and space; its clear understanding of practical living and its use of location, is truly inspiring.

The GROUND LEVEL has a wonderfully large KITCHEN/LIVING SPACE with light flooding through the full length sliding doors which frame the direct sea views from the extensive south-facing terrace which run the full width of the property. Another set of glazed doors on the northerly side contribute to the uplifting experience of light and space. On a practical note, there is an extensive range of kitchen cabinets with a granite-topped island. Appliances include NEFF™ combination ovens and induction hob, a full height fridge and separate full height freezer. There is also a wall mounted TV point, pendant lighting in the dining area and Karndean plank flooring throughout.

The SITTING ROOM also has glazed sliding doors leading to the terrace, and a full-length window on the opposite side again contributes to the enhanced sense of light. A door leads to an inner lobby (also accessed from the kitchen) where the GUEST CLOAKROOM is located.

Stairs from the entrance hall lead up to the FIRST FLOOR where the landing incorporates a STUDY AREA adjacent to a window with direct sea views. On this floor are two bedrooms, each with an ensuite facility. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM has a vaulted ceiling, and a balcony from which to take full advantage of the direct sea and coastal views. In addition to the dressing room, there is also a full range of fitted wardrobes across one wall. The ENSUITE BATHROOM is stylishly fitted with a free-standing bath, twin basins and a wet room. On the opposite side of the landing is a GUEST BEDROOM with its own ensuite fitted with free-standing bath, single basin and enclosed shower.

The LOWER GROUND FLOOR (GARDEN LEVEL) with stairs leading down from the hall to an inner hallway which opens to a fully glazed internal courtyard: a striking addition. From this floor is also immediate access to the garden. Accommodation on this floor provides a CINEMA ROOM: a blank canvas for the avid film buff, with a large space for whichever screen desired, and complete with plenty of power points for your desired console/ speaker layout. The wonderful advantage of this floor is that it is easily useable as part of the main accommodation, but it can equally be self-contained given its own entrance in use as a DINING HALL and separate KITCHEN which is fully equipped with appliances. THREE FURTHER BEDROOMS are also provided on this floor – again each with their own ENSUITE FACILITY. The PLANT ROOM is also located on this floor.

In general, each bedroom has LED downlights with multi point switching, TV and telephone points. Each ensuite facility has thermostatically controlled showers and wall-hung W.C's, and vanity units.

USEFUL INFORMATION

HEATING: All rooms have underfloor heating, with each room having its own individual thermostat which can be adjusted from your tablet or smartphone. MECHANICAL VENT HEAT RECOVERY (MVHR): This energy efficient ventilation continuously extracts moist, stale air from the wet rooms (bathrooms and kitchen) and resupplies fresh, filtered air back into the bedrooms and living rooms, resulting in a comfortable and condensation free environment all year round.

Outside
The overall plot is circa 0.3 acres with plentiful parking and a large DOUBLE GARAGE. A long private drive (serving just three properties) leads from Wyke Road to Cloudy Bay which is located. at the end. It is extraordinarily private, with the landscaped garden being a particular delight, being south-facing, and designed to attract pollinating insects and birds with wild flowers, more formal seating areas, and the use of dry stone walling, climbers, and mature shrubs to create a relaxed, pleasing environment. Behind the garage is a kitchen garden area with raised beds. A fine Monterey Pine stands at the entrance to the property.
