THE PROPERTY
5a Bridge Street is an attractive character period cottage, occupying a private setting just back from the seafront (although unfortunately there are no sea views) and within the heart of this highly sought after historic coastal town. It is estimated that the property dates back some 200/250 years and has timber clad and rendered elevations under a slate roof. The property is not listed, although is within the conservation area for the town.

The property has been under the current family ownership for some 30 years and over this time a whole number of improvements have been undertaken. Modern amenities include part electric convector heating, part uPVC sealed unit windows and uPVC stable front door, fitted kitchen with electric eye level double oven, electric ceramic halogen hob and pull out extractor fan, modern bathroom with electric Mira shower and designer wash bowl and a modern washroom to the first floor.

The accommodation is arranged over three floors (access to the attic third bedroom is via a steep flight of stairs). Character style features include part exposed beams, including a possible former sailing mast, part wood panelling and panelled doors.

Ground floor: living/dining room, kitchen, bathroom.
First floor: landing, two bedrooms, washroom.
Second floor: attic bedroom (sloping ceilings).

OUTSIDE
The property is very tucked away and has access through a shared passageway to its own small paved courtyard/sitting out area.

Although there is no off-road parking, there a number of council car parks nearby with annual/weekly/monthly permits available.

SITUATION
Ideally situated in the quaint old town, opposite the museum and Guildhall and within only a few metres of the seafront and town centre shops. Lyme Regis is part of the stunning Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site with a thriving town centre offering convenience and bespoke shopping of a surprising variety, as well as a number of renowned popular restaurants and hotels. The area is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and has excellent walking and water sport opportunities. The market town of Axminster is only 6 miles away with train services to London Waterloo.

SERVICES
