Stonebarrow View, Pound Road, Lyme Regis

A STRIKING AND SUBSTANTIAL 6 BEDROOMED DETACHED EDWARDIAN HOUSE CLOSE TO THE TOWN CENTRE ENJOYING PANORAMIC VIEWS OVER LYME BAY AND THE WEST DORSET COASTLINE.

‘Stonebarrow View’ is a striking and substantial detached Edwardian house built, we understand, in about 1906 with rendered elevations beneath a tiled roof.

The property has been under the current ownership for nearly 6 years, and is extremely well presented throughout. There are many original features which are typical of the period, with modern amenities including a beautiful kitchen diner/living area and stylish en-suite to the main bedroom.

The rear wing of the property has been utilised as a self-contained cottage, and has been long term let over a consistent period of time, providing a healthy income for the current owners, although the configuration of the property lends itself to the rear portion being incorporated back into the main part of the house.

The property is approached by a private driveway off Pound Road (shared by a small number of neighbouring quality houses) and occupies an elevated location, with the house enjoying spectacular views over Lyme Bay and the coastline. Whilst the property is tucked away and secluded, Stonebarrow View is only a few minutes walk from the town centre and sea front.
