Description

This three-bedroom detached home in Lyme Regis offers a unique opportunity for renovation and investment, positioned in a serene area with partial views of the sea and cliffs. Its location within this sought-after coastal town makes it an appealing prospect for those looking to enhance its existing charm or reconfigure the space to better suit modern living. The layout features an entrance hallway illuminated by a large arched window, creating a welcoming atmosphere upon entry. The ground floor comprises two double bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom. An adjoining door leads to a triple garage, which presents the possibility of conversion into additional living space (subject to planning permission), further increasing the property's potential. On the upper level, a generous living room showcases a woodburning stove and opens onto a wooden balcony, perfect for enjoying the fresh sea breeze. The principal bedroom is also located here, featuring ample proportions along with an ensuite bathroom and dressing area. The kitchen/dining area is equipped with various wall and base units, including an electric oven and gas hob, complemented by additional space for appliances. A versatile room currently used as a bedroom could easily be transformed into a dining room or another reception area. Surrounding the property are gardens that present significant potential for landscaping or development, predominantly laid to lawn across different levels while providing distant sea views. This outdoor space can be tailored to your vision, whether you wish to create tranquil gardens or functional outdoor areas. Lyme Regis itself is renowned for its historical architecture, including the iconic Cobb and beautiful harbor. The town boasts an array of amenities such as schools, local shops, supermarkets, restaurants, a theater, and museums. Just a short stroll from the bustling High Street lies an award-winning sandy beach ideal for families, alongside opportunities for boating and fishing at the harbor. For outdoor enthusiasts, the South West Coastal Path beckons with its miles of scenic routes along the famed Jurassic coastline—a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its rich fossil history. Accessibility is convenient with nearby road connections to Exeter and Dorchester and a mainline rail station located at Axminster. This property not only meets immediate living needs but also represents an excellent investment opportunity in a desirable coastal community.
