A rare opportunity situated almost a stones throw from the foreshore at Lyme Regis offering flexible accommodation of elegant proportions, with a courtyard garden and in need of renovation. EPC: E.

The Property - 17 Marine Parade is a beautifully proportioned home of much bearing which is believed to date back some 200 years, it has a huge amount of character and charm which has evolved over the years and is now in need of input from a new custodian. The property is situated just a stones' throw from the foreshore at the popular Lyme Regis beach, even having views of the sandy beach. It has a whole host of character features and has been amended over the years and benefits from not being Listed. There is a beautiful entrance vestibule with triple height ceilings and huge oak doors and tiled flooring which sets the tone as you enter this splendid home.

At present, the accommodation is configured with two downstairs reception rooms, the front having an open fireplace with a bay window overlooking marine parade, the rear having another open fireplace - this room is believed to have been the former kitchen. This leads onto further rooms at the rear and a rear door leading to the courtyard.

The first floor holds a small kitchen, a family shower room and an upstairs front sitting room that appreciates views between and over surrounding buildings to the beach. Further stairs lead to the second floor with two bedrooms which have good head height and proportions, the front bedroom appreciates sea and coastal views towards Portland.

Outside - The property is approached directly from Marine Parade with a couple of steps leading to the elegant front door.

There is an area of outdoor space which can be directly accessed from the rear of the property. This area can only be accessed by number 17 and number 18 and is delineated. At present this area of outdoors is not within the title plan of number 17 and has been subject to a previous family dispute. Whilst this has been resolved and is prescribed, ownership would need to be established. The outside area in question is described as follows: to the rear of the home, a door leads out to a path with steps leading round to a substantial raised paved walled courtyard area, delineated from next door. This area is in need of further works but would offer an excellent outside entertaining space.

Please also note: Further information on this can be provided by the agent.

NB: Please note that the property has no parking but is at the heart of Lyme Regis and could make for an exceptional home, holiday home or rental opportunity.
