THE PROPERTY
Commanding the most wonderful elevated position with panoramic views to Lyme Bay, Gatesfield House is a magnificent Regency building, justifiably Grade II listed of architectural and historical importance, that has been sympathetically converted into seven luxury apartments with communal landscaped gardens and allocated parking. Number 2 forms part of the later Victorian addition, and is beautifully situated with direct access onto the lawn, enjoying uninterrupted views to the sea and further to Portland and the Golden Cap.
The apartment comprises an entrance hallway, two well-proportioned double bedrooms, a large family bathroom and an elegant bay fronted open plan kitchen and living space, which takes full advantage of views over the gardens and to the sea, together with French doors opening directly onto the lawn. This is a fantastically light and spacious room, perfect for entertaining. There is also a generous Butler's pantry and wine cellar leading from the kitchen area, creating a very useful extension to the kitchen.
This wonderful apartment has direct access onto the beautifully landscaped communal gardens that too command panoramic views to the coastline.
All in all, this stunning apartment would make the most wonderful primary or secondary home in an enviable location.
LOCATION
The property is just a 10 minute walk from the beach and shops at Lyme Regis, a most popular and picturesque coastal town noted for its attractive period buildings, the Cobb, (made famous by Jane Austin and John Fowle's French Lieutenants Woman) and the harbour. These along with the stunning surrounding countryside and coastline all justify Lyme Regis's worldwide reputation. Lyme Regis and the Bay are situated at the heart of the Jurassic Coast, a major centre for fossil collecting. The town has an excellent selection of facilities, including many independent shops, as well as the familiar high street brands. There are two supermarkets, a number of restaurants, notably Mark Hix's Oyster and Fish House, the boutique Alexander Hotel to name but one of the many, as well as its own Theatre. The nearby town of Axminster just five miles away has a large supermarket, a variety of independent shops, restaurants and cafes, and a mainline railway station to London Waterloo. Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall's River Cottage HQ & Canteen is nearby. The larger city of Exeter lies some 30 miles away, with an international airport and large range of facilities and high street shopping with department stores including a large John Lewis.
