Welcome to Damyons Mead, a beautiful, stylish home of 4509 sq ft, built in 2019, which truly blends the art of ‘indoor/outdoor’ living.

Taking full advantage of its sunny south-facing position the extensive terrace at the rear runs the full width of the property and bi-fold doors swing open from the principal rooms adding to the striking sense of light and space. It is indeed a home for entertainment, but also for quiet enjoyment, given its peaceful location and private rear garden.

It also cleverly provides the flexibility of bedroom accommodation both on the ground floor and first floor. With five bedrooms in total, each one has the luxurious advantage of an ensuite facility. There is also a cinema room on the first floor which, again could be designated for many different uses as individually required.
All this in the entirely enchanting village of Upwey. A friendly community justifiably proud of its picturesque setting abutting the River Wey.

Stepping beyond the front door, the RECEPTION HALL gives an immediate indication of the enjoyable journey ahead with floor to ceiling windows flooding the area with light. A useful CLOAKROOM offers a practical note and there is also the advantage of a spacious BOOT ROOM which incorporates a shower and also provides internal access to the garage.

Glazed double doors allow a glimpse of the kitchen/dining room whilst passing by to the SITTING ROOM. This is a room which certainly does not disappoint. Its vaulted ceiling, and double height window over sliding patio doors, add a wonderful sense of drama and light, and yet the contemporary styled ‘living flame’ gas fire adds a cosy note in the cooler months.

Further glazed double doors lead back into the KITCHEN/DINING ROOM, a valuable consideration when entertaining. This ‘hub of the home’ must perform many functions and this room readily achieves this. Its sumptuous appearance creates an enviable entertaining area, its bi-folding doors neatly access the outdoor terrace extending the room both practically and visually, and its well-arranged kitchen area meets the needs of any chef! An extensive granite island is offset by the exceptional range of high gloss units which incorporate a number of Neff appliances. These include double ovens, steam ovens, concealed dual dishwashers, a microwave and coffee maker. Within the island unit is an induction hob with built-in extractor and useful sink with tap generating boiling water. An adjacent UTILITY ROOM provides further cupboards including an integral washing machine and Smart American-style fridge with iPhone connectivity to the Family Hub.

Discreetly located at the opposite end of the house are the TWO GUEST BEDROOM: each with an ensuite shower/wet room with contemporary RAK sanitary fittings. One of the guest rooms has patio doors leading straight outside to the terrace: a rather nice touch for enjoying a morning coffee.

An oak and glass staircase rises from the reception hall to the first floor where there are three further bedrooms and a cinema room. Of particular note is the considerable storage provided on the landing with built-in cupboards and also a Plant Room with heating/hot water controls.

The MAIN BEDROOM has a walk-in dressing room and doors opening to a covered balcony which take full advantage of the views over the garden. The ENSUITE BATHROOM includes a stylish free-standing bath and remote operated double shower.

BEDROOMS TWO & THREE are of similar proportion with each having a similarly stylish ENSUITE SHOWER ROOM.

Off the landing there is CINEMA ROOM with projector, and further storage This could be a room for many uses depending upon individual requirements.

Outside
The property is prettily approached via a gravel drive with planting adding a colourful note and a river running alongside.

A pillared entrance leads to a further gravelled parking area which provides considerable space for many vehicles. The DOUBLE GARAGE has dual remote doors and is where the gas boiler is located. Saved from inclement weather, there is also an internal door leading to the boot room.

The plot measures just under one acre in total with the rear garden being entirely level and bordered by a stream to the front and rear boundaries.

To the front there is a detached OUTBUILDING known as ‘The Buttery’ which could be an ideal office, with a pedestrian gate onto the lane. Privacy is maintained to the front with screened hedging.

The wonderfully sunny terrace extends to over 25 foot along the rear of the property and provides a sheltered spot for entertaining, as does the gazebo offering a different vantage point over the garden. There is also a useful timber Garden Shed included.

Location
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 proximity of the wide-ranging facilities of the seaside resort of Weymouth and the county town of Dorchester (4 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'.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
