A spacious two bedroomed apartment with views to the rear, in a high quality modern development.

No. 18 is a comfortable two bedroom apartment, part of a well maintained block of flats which were built in the late 1980's. Amenities include uPVC double glazing, gas central heating, a passenger lift and telephone entry system.

The flat is situated to the second floor of the building and benefits from excellent views over the town to the rear aspect, with the benefit of two balconies, one from the living area and another from the main bedroom. There is also the benefit of one allocated parking space for the flat. The flat has been generally well cared for although now requires some updating throughout. The property is set back from the road, in a popular residential area about 1/2 mile from the town centre and seafront. There is an impressive new footpath close by above the sea wall to the east beach and along the seafront to Marine Parade and harbour. Summerhill House is a well-managed development and communal parts are well kept.

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 this, 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 is a designated World Heritage Site commonly known as the Jurassic Coast. 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 the market town of Dorchester are both a similar distance from Lyme Regis. Locally there are primary schools in Lyme Regis and Uplyme, along with the well respected Woodroffe and Colyton Grammar Schools.
