Pound Street, Lyme Regis, Dorset, DT7

A beautifully presented Grade II listed Georgian townhouse with exceptional sea views, a sophisticated landscaped garden and elegant accommodation arranged over four floors.

Description

Positioned on the desirable western side of Lyme Regis, moments from the historic town centre and world-renowned Jurassic Coast, 15 Pound Street is a distinguished period home with timeless architectural character. The property enjoys elevated south-easterly views across the rooftops of Lyme Regis towards Golden Cap and The Cobb harbour, creating a remarkable connection with its coastal setting.

The house offers beautifully proportioned accommodation extending to approximately 1,700 sq ft, with a superb balance of formal reception space, family living and bedroom accommodation. Original period features have been carefully preserved throughout, including sash windows, fireplaces, panelled detailing and impressive ceiling heights, while tasteful interior finishes create a warm and inviting home.

The ground floor comprises an elegant dining room to the front, with a well-appointed kitchen that opens directly to the terrace and garden, creating a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living. Ancillary accommodation includes a utility area, cloakroom and useful storage spaces.

A graceful staircase rises to the first floor where a magnificent sitting room bathed in natural light benefits from high ceilings, a feature fireplace and elevated views over the garden and the Landmark Trust’s Belmont House garden. An additional sitting room or bedroom on this floor (that includes a wood burner installed three years ago) provides excellent flexibility.

The second floor accommodates two generous double bedrooms together with two bathroom facilities, while the principal bedroom occupies the upper floor, which enjoys panoramic views over the sea and coastline, creating a wonderful retreat that could equally serve as a creative workspace or studio.

A particular feature of the property is the beautifully designed part walled garden, thoughtfully arranged into a sequence of three distinct outdoor spaces.

A paved terrace provides an excellent space for al fresco dining and entertaining, which leads to carefully curated planting borders that feature green foliage and a white-flowered planting scheme. Beyond, the garden opens to a productive kitchen garden with raised beds.
