An impressive and substantial detached stone-built residence offering in excess of 4,000 sq. ft of beautifully versatile accommodation in a highly desirable setting on Wyke Road. This exceptional home combines generous family living with striking entertaining spaces, extensive parking, mature gardens and a wonderfully private woodland backdrop. Thoughtfully redesigned and rebuilt in the early 2000s, the property now offers contemporary, light-filled accommodation arranged across three floors, perfectly suited to modern family life.
A welcoming ENTRANCE LOBBY leads through into a spacious central HALLWAY where exposed stonework immediately sets the tone for the quality and character found throughout the home. Large windows allow natural light to travel effortlessly through the property, whilst a downstairs W.C. and practical UTILITY ROOM provide additional everyday convenience.
Undoubtedly one of the standout spaces within the home is the remarkable open-plan KITCHEN/DINING ROOM, designed very much as the social heart of the property. Exceptionally light and impressively proportioned, the room has been thoughtfully arranged for both relaxed family living and large-scale entertaining. Expansive bi-folding doors open directly onto the TERRACE, seamlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor spaces.
The KITCHEN itself is comprehensively fitted with cream-fronted cabinetry and extensive work surfaces, centred around an island unit with integrated NEFF hob and extractor. Additional integrated appliances include stacked NEFF ovens and a warming drawer, whilst there is space for both a fridge and freezer.
The SITTING ROOM is an elegant and exceptionally generous reception space enjoying a dual aspect together with direct access onto the terrace. A feature fireplace provides a natural focal point and adds warmth and atmosphere to the room. A second RECEPTION ROOM, currently utilised as a playroom, offers excellent versatility and would lend itself equally well as a snug, home office or family room.
The bedroom accommodation is arranged across the UPPER FLOORS and offers exceptional flexibility for both families and multi-generational living. The PRINCIPAL SUITE occupies the entirety of the top floor, creating a wonderfully private retreat away from the main accommodation below. This impressive suite incorporates a substantial bedroom area beneath attractive sloping ceilings, together with a generous DRESSING ROOM and ENSUITE facilities.
Particularly charming is the hidden window seat positioned on the upper landing beside fitted storage - a peaceful nook in which to sit and relax whilst enjoying glimpses towards the sea in the distance.
The first floor provides five further BEDROOMS, including guest accommodation with ENSUITE facilities, together with a FAMILY BATHROOM and separate SHOWER ROOM serving the remaining bedrooms.
Outside
Wrought iron gates open onto an expansive driveway providing parking for approximately 10-15 vehicles, complemented by two DOUBLE GARAGES. The property is further enhanced by CCTV coverage to both the front and rear together with SOLAR PANELS fitted to the roof.
To the rear, the home truly comes into its own. A magnificent paved TERRACE spans the width of the property and wraps around the rear elevation, creating exceptional outside entertaining space perfectly suited to summer dining, gatherings and relaxation. Glass balustrading allows uninterrupted enjoyment of the surrounding outlook whilst enhancing the contemporary feel of the space.
Broad stone steps gently descend to the lawned GARDENS below, bordered and embraced by mature woodland which wraps around the boundaries and creates an unexpectedly private and tranquil setting. The woodland backdrop attracts an abundance of wildlife, with deer and foxes regularly visiting the garden, further enhancing the peaceful atmosphere and connection to nature.
The elevated position also affords glimpses towards the sea from both the terrace and upper floors, combining the feeling of coastal living with the privacy and greenery more commonly associated with a countryside setting.
Location
Wyke Road is one of Weymouth's most established and desirable residential addresses, ideally positioned for access to both the coastline and surrounding amenities. The property enjoys a convenient setting within easy reach of local shops, schooling and everyday facilities, whilst Weymouth's historic harbour, marina and award-winning sandy beach are all easily accessible.
The nearby coastline forms part of the spectacular Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site, offering exceptional coastal walks, sailing waters and outdoor pursuits. Nearby beauty spots include Sandsfoot Castle, Chesil Beach and the Isle of Portland, all highly regarded for their scenery and recreational opportunities.
Despite being conveniently positioned for the town, the property enjoys a wonderfully private feel thanks to its mature woodland surroundings and elevated setting.
