The Property - Sea Tree House is a substantial Georgian house arranged as three apartments located in the heart of the highly sought after historic and picturesque coastal town of Lyme Regis. It occupies a prime elevated position with stunning sea views along the Jurassic Coast to Portland and overlooking the iconic Cobb. The house is believed to date back to the Georgian period and is Listed Grade II of Architectural or Historic Importance. It has a very interesting history being as a gentleman's residence in the mid 1800s. Previously, the property was a boarding house where Jane Austen is believed to have stayed in 1804 and views of the Cobb may have inspired her to write the book 'Persuasion'.
Holiay Letting Business - A very successful and well established holiday letting business is being operated currently through the holiday agents Lyme Bay Holidays. It has been under the current ownership since 1998 and has been subject to extensive sympathetic refurbishment. Currently arranged as three apartments, the lower apartments (Tamarind Tree and Tulip Tree) are used for holiday lettings and the upper apartment (Temple Tree) as a private home, although there would be the option to let all three.
The property can be purchased as a going concern with the great benefit of forward bookings. The comprehensive and quality fixtures and fittings are available by separate negotiation.
The accommodation is arranged as follows: Ground floor- reception hall, laundry/cloakroom and Georgian staircase.
The ground floor apartment, Tamarind Tree is classic to the Georgian period with a host of character features, it extends to - reception hall, sitting/dining room with bay windows and French doors opening out onto the garden and patio, kitchen, bedroom with en-suite shower room.
The first floor apartment, Tulip Tree is also very classic, the accommodation is arranged as follows - reception hall, sitting/dining room with bay window, kitchen, bedroom with en-suite shower room.
Upper apartment - Temple Tree is a second floor and third floor apartment with a combination of classic and contemporary features extending to - large landing/hall, sitting/dining room with bay window, kitchen/breakfast room, bedroom, bathroom with hip bath. Third floor- open planned bedroom with dressing room and living room area incorporating a double spa bath, separate shower room and large partially covered sun terrace/balcony.
Outside - Sea Tree House enjoys a very large rear garden with a conservatory and shed which takes advantage of the wonderful sea views.
It has the immense advantage of a nearby parking space located at Stile House in Pound Road. Aavailability of off road parking in Lyme Regis town centre is very scarce, so this is a major selling point.
Sea Tree House has the right to unload and load in the side passage (which is under the ownership of Palmers Brewery).
The attractive rear garden is currently divided into three areas for the apartments and again enjoys the fantastic sea views along the Jurassic Coast and overlooking the Cobb.
Situation - Although located in the heart of the town centre, Sea Tree House occupies a quiet and peaceful tucked away position just off Broad Street and the sea front is very nearby. Lyme Regis is a hugely popular and historic town forming part of the World Heritage Jurassic Coast. It is famous for its iconic Cobb, harbour and beautiful bathing beaches. The thriving town centre offers convenient and bespoke shopping of a surprising variety as well as a number of renowned popular restaurants and hotels. It has excellent walks and water sport facilities and within an area designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The market town of Axminster is within 4 miles with train services to London Waterloo and there is also excellent road and rail access further westwards into Devon and Cornwall.
