Barnes Meadow, Uplyme, Lyme Regis

Handsome detached four bedroom house with lovely country views.

The Property - Situated in the exclusive Barnes Meadow development, 42 Barnes Meadow is a beautifully presented and spacious detached house built specifically to take full advantage of its elevated position above the popular village of Uplyme, with wonderful views over the surrounding countryside. Those views are further enhanced by the configuration of the house with the living accommodation on top and the sleeping accommodation below bringing the advantage of level access straight into the living areas. Add its proximity to the beach at Lyme Regis and walks from the village itself into the countryside and into Lyme Regis and you have a very attractive proposition indeed.

The living accommodation is thoughtfully arranged around a welcoming central hallway making it a light, airy and versatile living space. The triple aspect sitting room stretches from the front to the rear of the property with double doors onto a patio, a fireplace in the centre and double doors through to the formal dining room, which is strategically placed between the sitting room and kitchen. The kitchen is equipped with a comprehensive range of floor and mounted units, cupboards and a central breakfast bar. Integral appliances include gas hob, electric double oven, microwave and dishwasher. Both the kitchen and adjoining utility room have attractive and practical ceramic tile flooring. There is a study at the front of the house and a cloakroom beside the front door. Downstairs there are four good sized bedrooms each of which have extensive built-in wardrobes, with the principal bedroom having double doors onto a decked terrace and an ensuite bathroom. The three other bedrooms share a family shower room. There is a large fully floored and lined attic room with two Velux windows and power, ideal for a hobby room. The property has gas fired central heating and is double glazed.

Outside - To the front of the property a gated entrance leads to an extensive area of brick paved driveway that provides parking and turning for a number of cars and access to the double garage. The double garage has remote controlled electric up and over doors, light and power. The gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped for ease of maintenance and are, for the most part, laid to lawn punctuated by mature ornamental shrubs and trees. At the rear of the house there is a raised timber deck and paved terrace area providing an ideal outdoor living and entertaining space during the summer months. Behind the garage there is a more wild area planted to an array of shrubs and trees designed to give shape, colour and form throughout the year. A pathway runs throughout with a second area of terrace laid to gravel and paving. The whole garden is enclosed behind attractive railings and low walls, enhancing the setting of this larger than average corner plot.
