Ravello, Uplyme Road, Lyme Regis

A 1920s/30s DETACHED BUNGALOW, INCLUDING MANY CHARACTER FEATURES AND SET WITHIN GENEROUS GARDENS. IN NEED OF UPDATING.

‘Ravello’ is a well built, characterful 1920s/30s bungalow, situated on the edge of Lyme Regis and benefitting from sea views to the rear.

Set within approximately 0.3 acres of mature gardens, the property has been under the same ownership for some years. It benefits from lovely character features throughout including timber panel doors, picture rails and feature period fireplaces, as well as an impressive wrap around timber decked and part quarry tiled veranda affording a pleasant outlook onto the gardens to the side and rear aspects.

Ravello would now benefit from updating to better suit modern living requirements, with scope to extend the existing accommodation subject to the necessary consents being obtained, given the plot that it occupies.

The property is offered to the market with no onward chain.

Lyme Regis is a picturesque coastal town noted for its many character buildings, centuries old Cobb Harbour and unspoilt surrounding countryside. The town centre provides good shopping facilities for day to day needs and the larger centres of Taunton and Exeter are both about 28 miles away. There is a main line railway station at Axminster (6 miles inland). In Lyme Regis there is also a sailing club, bowls, golf course, theatre and numerous local societies.

The town is situated on the beautiful and unspoilt Devon and Dorset ‘Jurassic Coast’ awarded World Heritage Site status by UNESCO in December 2001.

Access to the property is via a tarmacadam driveway which is shared with the neighbouring property (Woodberry), which in turn leads to a paved pathway to the front entrance as well as dual side access to and from the rear gardens again via pedestrian pathways. The front garden is laid to lawn with a variety of mature trees and planting throughout, whilst the rear garden is also laid to lawn with varieties of mature specimen trees, shrubs and planting, with a pond to the lower part of the garden. To the side of the bungalow, there is a generous patio seating area bordered by a brick arch feature, with steps down from the patio to the rear garden. The veranda can also be accessed from the patio area, which makes an ideal space for unwinding and relaxing during the warmer months of the year.
