Outstanding contemporary coastal house with fabulous views to Weymouth Bay and Portland.

Description

Cloudy Bay is an exceptional, architect designed, contemporary coastal property completed about 2 years ago by the current owners. The property is situated at the bottom of a long drive, off Wyke Road, in an elevated position with long, open views to Weymouth Bay and Portland beyond that.

The house has expansive accommodation extending to 4,445 sq ft arranged over three floors with part brick, part boarded elevations under a slate roof, the top floor accommodation overhanging the lower floors to add to the striking design, also to help with solar shading.

The house has been appointed to an extremely high standard, with low energy credentials, excellent insulation and under floor heating throughout, together with a mechanical ventilation and heat recovery system. On the middle level is a splendid, large family kitchen with seating and dining areas, large sliding screen doors on both the north and south elevations flooding the room with light and making the most of the sea views. A large terrace spans the width of the kitchen and sitting room to the south. A comfortable sitting room also with large glass door frames a view to the bay. All the opening windows and doors have level access to outdoor spaces. A cloakroom and entrance hall complete the accommodation on this level. From the hall a unique timber staircase rises to the first floor.

The landing doubles as a useful study area with picture window, the principal bedroom has a vaulted ceiling with a large window opening onto the balcony. A door gives access to the en suite which includes a freestanding bath, double basis and wet room. On the other side of the landing is the guest suite with Juliet balcony.

The garden level could easily double as a self-contained flat, having separate access from the garden. The accommodation incorporates an entrance hall large enough for a dining table, three further double bedrooms all with en suite facilities, a kitchen, boiler and plant room, studio room (ideal for a cinema room) and glass sliding doors to give access to the courtyard. Provision of a lift shaft for future installation of a lift if required.

Outside
A long drive from Wyke Road (serving just 3 properties) leads to a private block Pavia drive, with parking for several cars and sweeps round to the north of the property giving access to a double garage. To the north is a fine Monterey Pine tree, surrounded by a lawn retained by hand built dry stone walling. To the rear of the garage is a kitchen garden area with raised beds. Steps down to the east of the house lead to the main area of garden to the south which are enclosed on three sides with fencing, climbers and mature shrubs. A lawn is broken up with a gravel path, and a tiered border with dry stone walling.
