A very attractive and substantial semi-detached Edwardian house with two apartments, enjoying sea views and parking, in this highly sought after and picturesque coastal town
SITUATION & DESCRIPTION
Woodmead Road is a popular and well established residential road within easy reach of the town centre and seafront (access to the town from View Road or along the River Lym). Lyme Regis is a picturesque and historic coastal town, famous for its Cobb, harbour and glorious beaches. The town is located on the Jurassic World Heritage Site and within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The town has a thriving community with excellent shopping, business and leisure facilities . Axminster offers a rail service to London and the thriving town of Bridport is also close by.
Briar Lodge is a very attractive and substantial semi-detached Edwardian house, with two apartments and off-road parking. It was built in circa 1910 with later additions, having classic colour-washed, pebbledash elevations under a mainly clay tiled roof (the modern rear extension has a green roof). Under the current ownership, since 2014, the house has been subject to a whole number of alterations and refurbishment to a very good standard. The house still retains original features, including high ceiling, deep skirting boards, panelled doors, original timber windows with secondary double glazing, herringbone wood flooring, fireplace with multi-fuel stove and exposed floorboards.
OUTSIDE
There is the immense benefit of off-road parking for two cars (many properties in Lyme Regis town do not have parking). Side pedestrian gate.
The rear gardens are a further big selling feature of the property, having a large depth and being very well established. Paved terrace with four mature apple trees. Brick paved pathways lead onto areas of lawn together with raised beds and pergola with well established vine. A gate gives access onto woodland (belonging to the Woodland Trust).
Useful range of outbuildings comprising a detached utility, wood store and studio, plus , at the far end, a detached summerhouse/studio.
ACCOMODATION
The main house has a newly upgraded kitchen with marble composite worktops and Neff oven and electric hob. The apartments both offer modern kitchen and shower rooms. The apartments generate excellent income (currently long term lets). Alternatively, the house could be used as one large home for two or more generations etc.
Briefly, the accommodation extends to:
MAIN HOUSE
