Inside

Welcome to Southdown Avenue a special no through road running along the edge of Lodmoor Nature Reserve with many footpaths leading to the sea.

Southdown Avenue holds a premium position with panoramic, breath taking views out over the reed beds, and shallows of the Nature Reserve and distant views across Weymouth Bay over to the Isle of Portland. An individual and unique chalet style bungalow built in the 1960`s and affording a generous and practical family home.

The front door opens into a generous, bright and airy HALL with a large picture window framing views over the Nature Reserve and flooding the room with natural light. This space is currently used as a generous DINING ROOM, it could become a welcoming vestibule, or an Ornithologist’s dream location celebrating the range of wildlife visiting the Nature Reserve throughout the year and different seasons. From here a wooden staircase rises to the first floor.

To your left, a door leads into THE SITTING ROOM, another spacious and light filled room. Sliding glass doors open out to the large patio at the front of the properly and glorious sea and nature reserve views. A Portland stone fireplace with an open fire helps create the perfect cosy place on stormy days watching the clouds and rain roll across Weymouth Bay.

Back to the HALL an inner hallway to your left leads you into the KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM which is well equipped with an extensive array of wooden ‘cottage-style` wall and base units. Integrated units include dishwasher, washing machine, double oven and space for a large fridge freezer. Integral storage cupboard, which was previously a larder. A useful side door in the kitchen leads out to rear gardens and path to the side of the property.

The recently refurbished SHOWER ROOM is replete with wash hand basin, W.C and walk in large shower with contemporary glass screen.

Further along the hallway there are BEDROOM TWO and BEDROOM THREE both good sized double bedrooms with views over the rear gardens. Proceeding along the hallway further is an inner door leading into the integrated GARAGE.

Returning to the DINING ROOM, stairs led to the first-floor LANDING with a large window to the front aspect filling the stair well with natural light.

Doors lead to two further bedrooms - THE PRINCIPAL BEDROOM has the benefit of a generous ENSUITE. The bedroom is a remarkable space, the full depth of the property. A picture window embraces the stunning sea views, giving a sense of further space and light experienced throughout the house. The ENSUITE comprises a panelled bath, walk in shower cubicle, wash hand basin and W.C. Light floods in courtesy of a Velux™ rooflight window and there is also access to ample eaves storage.

Across the landing and into BEDROOM FOUR/STUDY, a single bedroom or home office/hobby/crafting space, with further Velux™ window.
