Sea View, Fortuneswell, Portland, Dorset

We are delighted to bring to the market an extremely unique, two double bedroom (plus loft room), property with accommodation situated over four floors, with the first and second floors boasting balconies enjoying the most magnificent views to the rear onto the sea. The property benefits the modern comforts of double glazing and gas central heating as well as period character features, and as such we strongly recommend viewing this property to appreciate it’s many attractive qualities.  

The main living accommodation is found on the ground floor including a front aspect lounge with bay window providing good natural light.  Towards the rear of the property is the spacious dining room, which is very much a hub of this family home.  With cosy features such as a woodburning stove, and understairs seated nook, this light and bright room naturally flows into a cottage style kitchen.  This is another bright and airy room from double glazed dual aspect windows and doors, hosting modern integral appliances including a halogen hob, gas burner and double electric, eye level, ovens as well as space for additional domestic appliances, including plumbing for a dishwasher / washing machine.  A side door gives access to stairs leading to the rear garden.  A door at the rear leads to a lovely balcony that offers breathtaking views over the rooftops of Portland onto the sea.  The lower ground floor offers a utility / store room with dual aspect double windows and another door giving access directly onto the garden and offers plumbing for a washing machine and space for further domestic appliances.  

The first floor landing is spacious with doors to the two large double bedrooms, family bathroom and stairs to the second floor.   Bedroom one is situated to the front and is a well proportioned room spanning the width of the property, enjoying a cast iron fireplace and built in cupboard.  Bedroom two, another double, enjoys a door leading to its own balcony with wonderful sea views.  The tastefully presented family bathroom is simply stunning, with an independent rolltop bath, large independent shower cubicle, vanity wash hand basin and low level WC and chrome towel rail.    

Completing the internal accommodation is the loft room, currently used as the main bedroom, found on the second floor, sloping ceilings give character and two Velux windows give excellent natural light and gorgeous coastal views.  An added advantage is an en-suite WC with wash hand basin.  

The character and quirkiness of this property continues to the outside.  At the front of the property is a small front garden with a Lego wall lovingly built by the current owners and well known within the community.  Follow this link which shows how the wall was built incorporating its secret compartments and features.  The delightful rear courtyard garden is low maintenance, enclosed by a Portland stone wall and sea views to the rear.  Direct access to the ground floor utility and steps up to the kitchen are accessed from here.  

The property is located just a short stroll from the local shops and amenities in Fortuneswell, including bus routes to surrounding areas.  The beautiful Chesil Beach is also within easy walking distance where there are well regarded public houses and eateries, perfect to watch the wonderful sunsets this area is renowned for.  The facilities at the National Sailing Academy, Portland Harbour and Osprey Quay Marina are also within close proximity.
