Description
The ENTRANCE HALL, which has retained its mid 1930`s character with original parquet flooring, leads to the SITTING ROOM/DINING ROOM and KITCHEN. An understairs cupboard offers useful storage and the CLOAKROOM has a W.C and wash-hand basin.
The KITCHEN has a double opening window at the rear, overlooking the back garden, and double side window overlooking the side entrance, allowing natural light to flood the room.
The kitchen units are freestanding and crafted from solid wood offering plenty of storage space. Free standing units include double sink, a large fridge freezer unit, corner induction hob, and a suite of wooden storage wall and floor units returning to the hallway. A stable door, with leaded glazed top panel leads you out to the rear garden.
Returning to the HALLWAY, an original wooden door leads you into a spacious SITTING ROOM/DINING ROOM. The bay windows to the front and French doors at the rear fill this space with natural light. Both chimney breasts have been retained, brick work exposed and painted white, revealing the original fire openings. A log burner has been installed in the front fire openings. French doors lead you onto an exceptionally generous decking area and GARDEN.
Ascending the stairs from the HALLWAY, with all bedrooms and family bathroom located on the first floor.
The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is a generously proportioned room and enjoys the benefit of the bay window at the front of the property, with views over the front garden. This room benefits from built-in storage and space for freestanding furniture in the alcoves.
BEDROOM 2 is a double room, currently with 2 single beds, freestanding dressing table, and wardrobe units. The chimney breast is a central feature of this room, the fire opening has been exposed, and shelving installed in the alcoves. A large double window with views of the garden and out towards an open field, creates a well-lit welcoming room.
BEDROOM 3 is a good sized single bedroom, with a window opening to views over the back garden and surrounding fields. This room would make an ideal Home Office or Nursery.
The FAMILY BATHROOM has been elegantly refitted with L shaped bath, with glass screen, fixed mixer shower incorporating round rainfall style shower head and a lightweight hand set for extra flexibility. White tiles and white enamel W.C and wash-hand basin, helps create a compact and elegant family bathroom.
Outside
The DRIVEWAY at the front of the property has sufficient space for two to three vehicles. The lawned area to the side could be incorporated to enhance off road parking facilities – a low wall and hedging affords an element of privacy from pedestrians.
A path travels along the side of the property towards the REAR GARDEN with access to the KITCHEN via the side door. The GARDEN is mostly laid to lawn bordered with hedging and enjoying views out towards fields, and hills beyond.
A generous decking area with space for alfresco dining and relaxing sits at the rear of the property and offers steps leading down to the garden.
Location
Upwey is one of Dorset’s prettiest, most unspoilt villages. The property is nestled quietly within this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the valley of the Dorset Ridgeway. The River Wey meanders gently through this picturesque village, most well-known for the romantic setting of Upwey Wishing Well at The Spring Head, a favourite place of King George III. Whilst enjoying ‘village living’, it is also a practical location within close proximity of the wide-ranging facilities of the seaside resort of Weymouth and the county town of Dorchester (four miles in either direction). Weymouth, Dorchester and Upwey itself all have stations on the main line to London Waterloo. There is also a regular bus service locally, and a popular public house, ‘The Old Ship Inn’.
