This lovely seaside home with fabulous sea and coastal views stretching all the way to Portland and Chesil beach, is situated in a tucked away location just off Silver Street, away from passing traffic (both vehicular and pedestrian). The house is semi-detached, Victorian in origin with a modern extension. Beautifully presented and welcoming throughout, the accommodation comprises three bedrooms (two on the first floor and one ground floor), bathrooms on both ground and first floors, kitchen, sitting room, conservatory, w.c., utility room and entrance lobby. The property has been well maintained with double glazing and gas central heating along with a pretty multi-fuel stove in the sitting room. Outside, there is a large decked area providing plenty of space for entertaining and a lower lawned garden with shrub planting. The property also has the benefit of two parking spaces and a useful store room attached to the extension, which could accommodate bikes or canoes etc. The views from the house are really superb, even from the ground floor but on the first floor, the view stretches all the way to Portland and Chesil beach, taking in the coast, Golden Cap, the sea and the town.
The seaside resort of Lyme Regis, famed for its historic connections and the Cobb Harbour remains popular with visitors. The town retains much of its original charm and a good variety of shops restaurants and places of interest to visit. There are many events throughout the year including a good range of live music and for those who would rather be on the sea, there are sailing and gig rowing clubs. This expanse of coast line has been designated a World Heritage Site and is affectionately known as the Jurassic coast. Bus services run regularly between the local towns of Bridport and Axminster, where the station runs a mainline service to London Waterloo and Exeter. The property is very well placed for proximity to the highly regarded Woodroffe Secondary School, which has been described by Ofsted as 'outstanding', with many house hunters seeking an address within the catchment area. Alternatively, the Colyton Grammar School, which is constantly ranked as one of the best in the country is approximately 8 miles to the west.
