Description
Flat 4 The Gables was comprehensively modernised about 5-6 years ago with great care taken to retain character features. It has been a successful holiday let for the present owner providing a useful income but is equally well suited as a permanent home. The property is very conveniently situated in the picturesque Old Town just 200 metres or so walk to the town centre shops and seafront. The Gables is an imposing Victorian property which was in fact the cottage hospital between 1820 and 1927. It has now been converted into self-contained flats.
Lyme Regis is famed for its many historic connections and character buildings, and of course, for its well known Cobb Harbour. As a resort, it is considered quite unspoilt, but has most of the shops and amenities that one could require. In addition to this, there are numerous leisure activities including both sailing and power boat clubs, a cliff top golf course and a bowling club. The whole coastline with Lyme Regis and Charmouth at its centre is a designated World Heritage Site commonly known as the Jurassic Coast. It lies approximately 5 miles from the market town of Axminster, with its main line railway connections to Waterloo (Approx. 2 3/4 hours). Taunton and the market town of Dorchester are both a similar distance from Lyme Regis. Locally there are primary schools in Lyme Regis and Uplyme, along with the well respected Woodroffe and Colyton Grammar Schools.
