Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
An almost new (just 3 years old) detached four bedroom family home situated in an elevated residential location with partial sea views. The house is one of just 6 set along a sweeping private road overlooking a shared green with a number of mature trees having been retained on the outer edge of the development. A pretty front garden with a central path leads to the front entrance, with a driveway to one side providing tandem parking for 3 vehicles and leading to the large garage/workshop. Internally, the house is bright and well designed with good living space comprising, a generous study, lounge/sitting room, ground floor w.c., utility room and a large kitchen/dining/living room at the back. Upstairs there are four double bedrooms, two with en-suites and a family bathroom. The master bedroom has a dressing area with built-in wardrobes and sea views. The kitchen/dining/living space opens up to the rear garden, which is level and safely enclosed for children and pets. A garden path runs alongside the garage, providing access to a decked seating area, which offers a great deal of privacy, and a large, fully insulated art studio/summer house with power and light. The garage provides ample parking/storage space with a partition wall dividing this from the workshop area at the back. Both areas are fitted with light and power.
Being only 3 years old, the house is very energy efficient and a charging point for electric vehicles has been installed along the driveway. All windows are double glazed and gas central heating is installed throughout.

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.
