Description

This three-bedroom detached bungalow is positioned on a substantial plot in a sought-after residential area, offering significant renovation and investment potential. With a garage, driveway, and wraparound gardens, the property invites creative updates to enhance its existing charm. Located within walking distance of Lyme Regis's vibrant center, this home is close to the iconic Cobb Harbour, picturesque seafront, and beautiful beaches, making it an appealing option for both personal use and rental opportunities. The South West Coast Path nearby further adds to the allure of the location for outdoor enthusiasts. Upon entering, you're greeted by an entrance hall that includes a useful storage cupboard and provides access to the main living spaces. The spacious lounge/dining room features dual-aspect windows that fill the space with natural light and includes an open fireplace set on a stone hearth—an inviting focal point that could be revitalized with modern design elements. Adjoining this area is a conservatory that opens onto the rear garden, merging indoor and outdoor living. The kitchen offers solid wood base and wall units alongside practical counter space for cooking. Although currently functional, it presents opportunities for modernization with ample room for undercounter appliances and an existing freestanding gas cooker setup. Additionally, there's direct access from the kitchen to a shower room/utility area leading out to the garden. This bungalow comprises two double bedrooms equipped with fitted wardrobes and a versatile single bedroom that could serve as an office or guest room. A well-positioned shower room completes the internal layout. Outside, the front garden boasts a neat lawn bordered by mature flowering shrubs and trees along a low stone wall boundary. The property benefits from two driveways leading to side access; one features a garage with an up-and-over door for added convenience. The south-facing rear garden stands out as a key feature of the property, enclosed by timber fencing with shrub borders and predominantly laid to lawn—ideal for landscaping enhancements. A paved patio area allows for outdoor seating while enjoying distant sea views. With no onward chain and all mains services connected, this bungalow holds great potential for those looking to invest in a property ripe for transformation in an enviable coastal location.
