Paradise Cottage is situated in a desirable location with a short walk through the attractive Old Town or along the picturesque River Lym to the seafront and beaches.

This charming semi detached two bedroom house, set beside the River Lym in the historic Jericho area of Lyme Regis, has origins we believe dating back to the early 20th century and retains a number of character features throughout. The property has been in long term ownership and now presents an excellent opportunity for sympathetic modernisation. Its generous garden and enviable riverside position make it a rare offering in the very heart of Lyme Regis.

Tucked away within a small cluster of homes along the River Lym, the property enjoys a peaceful and picturesque setting just moments from the town centre. A riverside footpath provides a delightful approach, creating a sense of seclusion that contrasts with the convenience of its central location.

This desirable riverside position offers a wonderful outlook over the River Lym and surrounding greenery, with the gentle sound of the water enhancing the calm atmosphere. The unusually large garden for such a central location is a particular feature, offering excellent scope for landscaping, outdoor seating areas, or simply enjoying the tranquillity of this tucked away setting. A useful garden shed/workshop sits towards the rear, providing practical storage or hobby space.

The property must be viewed internally to fully appreciate the light accommodation and the potential it offers for a new owner to create a bespoke home in one of Lyme Regis’ most characterful neighbourhoods.

Arranged over two floors, the accommodation currently provides a living room, separate dining room, kitchen, two bedrooms, and a family bathroom, with scope to reconfigure or extend (subject to any necessary consents). Many of the windows enjoy views towards the river or garden, and the layout lends itself well to modernisation.

A small shared pathway with next door leads to the front entrance, where a part glazed door opens into the hallway with stairs rising to the first floor. To one side is the living room, a cosy space with a front aspect window. The dining room offers a more formal reception area, ideal for entertaining or family meals with doors out onto the garden. The fireplace in the corner of the room is lined working and clear. To the rear, the kitchen overlooks the garden and provides direct access outside. Upstairs, two well-proportioned bedrooms with the main bedroom benefitting from views down the river and a bathroom complete the accommodation.

The garden is a standout feature, unusually large for a property so close to the centre of Lyme Regis. Mature planting, level areas, and the backdrop of the River Lym create a peaceful and private outdoor space with excellent potential for enhancement. The addition of the garden shed/workshop further increases the practicality of this generous plot.
