The rooms are arranged over two levels and provide four well-proportioned double bedrooms, offering flexible space suitable for family living, guests, or use as a coastal retreat.
The living accommodation comprises a kitchen, dining room, and a large lounge, each retaining elements of the property’s historic origins and offering scope for sympathetic updating. A small outside courtyard provides a private outdoor space, ideal for quiet relaxation further complementing the lifestyle offered by this Old Town location.
The property is offered without parking, in keeping with its central and historic setting, and represents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial period home in one of Lyme Regis’ most sought-after and atmospheric locations, with the added appeal of improvement potential.
