" A LINK DETACHED 1960s 70s HOUSE, OCCUPYING A TUCKED AWAY POSITION AND AFFORDING COASTAL VIEWS. IN NEED OF UPDATING.

Starley Bank is thought to have been constructed during the 1960s 70s, constructed to traditional specifications faced in reconstructed stone under a tiled roof.

The property has been within the same ownership for a number of decades, and whilst presented very well, it would now benefit from internal updating to better suit modern living requirements.

The house occupies a tucked away position off Clappentail Lane, and owing to its elevated situation, benefits from some lovely sea and coastal views across to Golden Cap from both the lounge and main bedroom. The rear garden is delightful and well tended, which also provides a fabulous outlook to the coast and Lyme Bay.

The property is offered to the market with no onward chain.

Lyme Regis is a picturesque coastal town noted for its many character buildings, centuries old Cobb Harbour and unspoilt surrounding countryside. The town centre provides good shopping facilities for day to day needs and the larger centres of Taunton and Exeter are both about 28 miles away. There is a main line railway station at Axminster 6 miles inland . In Lyme Regis there is also a sailing club, bowls, golf course, theatre and numerous local societies.

The town is situated on the beautiful and unspoilt Devon and Dorset Jurassic Coast awarded World Heritage Site status by UNESCO in December 2001.

There is also an external storage cupboard to the right of the front door. The rear garden is truly delightful, with a patio area and further lawned area which is interspersed with mature planting and well established specimen trees. There is a pathway to one side as well as steps from the patio area to a further path leading to a potting shed and rear access to the garage. A particular feature are the fantastic coastal views afforded from the rear garden, providing outlooks to the sea and Golden Cap in the distance.
