" Occupying a SUPERB COASTAL POSITION encompassing a wide panoramic sea view over Lyme Bay, Clovercombe is unique in having no other properties between itself and the sea.

Built in 1928 with part timbered gabled elevations, this character detached house features a WIDE MARINE VIEW BALCONY and a veranda, both looking out over beautiful Lyme Bay and the coastline stretching from Teignmouth, Lyme Regis around to Portland Bill. The property, whilst in good order, would benefit from some updating but offers a wonderful canvas for a new owner to place their stamp.

Tucked away in pretty gardens with a high degree of privacy, Clovercombe is in fact just a short level walk from all the amenities of St Marychurch and yards from a bus service into the town centre and harbour, a local golf course and sailing club are also within a level walk as are also superb Babbacombe Downs seafront gardens.

Quite simply one of the best marine locations in the Bay.
