Home Farm South, Lyme Regis, DT7

The Rousdon Estate, located on Devon’s stunning Jurassic Coast, was established in the late 19th century by Sir Henry Peek, a tea merchant and philanthropist. Designed by Sir Ernest George, the estate originally included a grand mansion, a church, and various amenities for self-sufficiency. It later became Allhallows School from 1937 to 1997. Now, it has transformed into a unique community of homes within 350 acres of farmland, parkland, and nature reserves, offering an idyllic setting with a rich history.

The property features a spacious open-plan kitchen and reception room with vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The kitchen is well-equipped and seamlessly integrates with the living area, making it ideal for entertaining or relaxing. Two well-proportioned bedrooms offer comfortable accommodation, complemented by a modern bathroom. The layout is designed to maximise space and comfort, ensuring a practical living environment suitable for a variety of lifestyles.

This home has been used as a second residence and occasional holiday let, offering versatility for future owners. Many of the furnishings, crafted by Chunky Monkey Bespoke Furniture in Exeter, add a distinctive and high-quality touch to the interiors. These items can be included in the sale via separate negotiation, providing an added benefit for those looking to move in with minimal effort.

Set within 350 acres of farmland, parkland, and nature reserves, the Rousdon Estate boasts breathtaking Jurassic Coast views and offers an exceptional lifestyle. Residents enjoy beautifully maintained communal gardens, wooded areas, and scenic walking trails, perfect for relaxation and exploration. The estate also provides private access to the South West Coast Path and a secluded beach, adding to its unique appeal.
