Situated in a popular residential area with pedestrian access from Colway Lane and vehicular access from Talbot Road, is this attractive, well presented detached bungalow, built in the 1930s.
The property has been well maintained and improved by the present owners, and benefits from UPVC double-glazed windows throughout, gas-fired central-heating and parking for several vehicles including caravan/boat. The property also benefits from a large roof space which, subject to the necessary consents, would provide additional accommodation. An early internal inspection is highly recommended.
Lyme Regis is famed for its many historic connections and character buildings, and of course, for its well known Cobb Harbour. As a resort, it is considered quite unspoilt, but has most of the shops and amenities that one could require, in addition to which there are numerous leisure activities including both sailing and power boat clubs, a cliff top golf course and a bowling club. The whole coastline with Lyme Regis and Charmouth at its centre has recently been designated a World Heritage Site (nicknamed the Jurassic Coast), putting it in the same category as the Grand Canyon. It lies approximately 5 miles from the market town of Axminster, with its main line railway connections to Waterloo (Approx. 2 3/4 hours). Taunton and Exeter are within a radius of about 30 miles with access to the M5 motorway and the county town of Dorchester is a similar distance.
