Description

Offered for sale with no forward chain, this beautifully presented detached barn conversion occupies a peaceful position in Coldharbour, on the outskirts of Weymouth. Arranged entirely over one level, the property combines the character and proportions of its former agricultural origins with contemporary comfort, creating a home that feels both individual and easy to live in.

From the moment you step inside, the sense of light and space is immediately apparent. A long HALLWAY runs through the property, with extensive glazing and doors connecting the interior naturally with the gardens outside. The single storey arrangement gives the accommodation an easy flow, while timber detailing throughout provides warmth and complements the character of the building.

At the heart of the home lies the wonderfully spacious open plan KITCHEN and RECEPTION ROOM. This impressive room is undoubtedly the focal point, with a high vaulted ceiling and substantial exposed timbers creating a striking reminder of the property’s stable heritage. Generous south facing windows and glazed double doors bring in an abundance of natural light and provide a lovely connection with the garden.

The RECEPTION AREA offers ample room for comfortable seating alongside a dining table, allowing the space to adapt easily from quiet evenings at home to Sunday lunches and gatherings with family and friends. An elegant electric fireplace provides a welcoming focal point and adds warmth during the cooler months.

Open to the reception space, the KITCHEN is thoughtfully arranged with a range of wall and base units finished with wooden doors, their natural tones sitting comfortably alongside the exposed timber above. Integrated appliances include an electric oven and four ring hob with extractor, while there is also space for freestanding white goods. A generous peninsula provides additional preparation space and creates a natural divide between the kitchen and living areas without interrupting the sociable, open feel. A further door leads directly outside.

Continuing along the HALLWAY are TWO generously proportioned DOUBLE BEDROOMS. Both are comfortably sized for to accommodate associated furniture and windows provide pleasant outlooks towards the front or rear gardens.

Completing the accommodation is the spacious FAMILY BATHROOM which has been designed with relaxation in mind. A freestanding bath provides an inviting place to unwind, complemented by a separate corner shower, wash-hand basin set within a vanity unit and concealed W.C.

Altogether, this is a home with a wonderfully relaxed feel, where exposed timbers, generous proportions and light filled living spaces sit comfortably alongside the ease of single storey living. With the gardens forming a natural extension of the accommodation, it is a setting equally suited to quiet everyday life, entertaining friends or simply enjoying the space and surroundings.

Outside
Approached along a shared track, the property is discreetly positioned behind a PRIVATE, providing parking for up to FOUR CARS. Constructed in attractive stone beneath a traditional slate roof, the home blends rural character with modern-day comfort.

The generous wraparound GARDENS is a particular delight, with beautifully maintained lawns, mature trees and a secluded seating area from which to enjoy the far-reaching views.

Offering an appealing sense of peace and privacy, the grounds provide ample opportunity for those wishing to keep animals, cultivate a productive vegetable garden or simply embrace the luxury of substantial outdoor space.

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

• SEO-led campaigns and tailored landing pages designed to connect specific buyers with specific properties
