A characterful flat situated within a Grade II listed building, situated in a prominent location just a short walk from the seafont and town centre.
44/45 Coombe Street is a substantial town centre property of considerable age and which fortunately still retains a variety of period features throughout. The building was subject to a model of major restoration some years ago, with the creation of the 3 self contained flats (including No. 3) to the upper floors, and great care taken to preserve the inherent character of the property whilst providing modern amenities. Unusually for Lyme Regis town centre, each flat has its own small garden area and separate store/utility.
A particular attraction of the property is its location, away from the main road yet just a 100 metre or so level walk from the seafront and the bottom of Broad Street (the main shopping street). Flat 3 can be found to the top floor of the building, and benefits from an open plan living kitchen area, two bedrooms and bathroom. The property is offered to the market with no onward chain.
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 been designated a 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 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. Locally there are excellent primary schools in Lyme Regis and Uplyme along with the well respected Woodroffe and Colyton Grammar Schools.
