"A STUNNING GARDEN APARTMENT, STYLISHLY DESIGNED WITH MANY CONTEMPORARY FEATURES AND OFFERING DECEPTIVELY SPACIOUS TWO BEDROOMED ACCOMMODATION WITH SEA AND COASTAL VIEWS

The Old Garage is a spectacular ground floor apartment, hidden behind the facade of a 1920s former garage and workshop. The ground floor section of the building was substantially extended to the rear prior to the current ownership, providing superb living space. It has been sympathetically designed in retaining character features throughout such as steel ceiling joists and the former inspection chamber for the garage , and blended with contemporary touches.

The original section of the building is believed to be brick built with the extension to the rear constructed of cavity blockwork beneath a slate roof. This extension includes the excellent living room with vaulted ceiling, oak flooring and wide sliding patio doors which combine in and outdoor living with its scenic backdrop of sea and coastal views.

The apartment further benefits from a well appointed large kitchen diner, with underfloor heating throughout, generous family bathroom and two bedrooms, with an en suite to the main bedroom. The integral garage is a particular feature, providing parking for one vehicle which is rare within such a short distance of the town centre.

Lyme Regis is a picturesque coastal town noted for its many character buildings, centuries old Cobb Harbour and unspoilt surrounding countryside.
