Flat 18 Summerhill House, Lyme Regis

A SPACIOUS 2 BEDROOMED APARTMENT WITH VIEWS TO THE REAR, IN A HIGH QUALITY MODERN DEVELOPMENT

No. 18 is a comfortable two bedroom apartment, part of a well maintained block of flats which were built in the late 1980's. Amenities include uPVC double glazing, gas central heating, a passenger lift and telephone entry system.

The flat is situated to the second floor of the building and benefits from excellent views over the town to the rear aspect, with the benefit of two balconies, one from the living area and another from the main bedroom. There is also the benefit of one allocated parking space for the flat. The flat has been generally well cared for although now requires some updating throughout.

The property is set back from the road, in a popular residential area about 1/2 mile from the town centre and seafront. There is an impressive new footpath close by above the sea wall to the east beach and along the seafront to Marine Parade and harbour.

Summerhill House is a well-managed development and communal parts are well kept.

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 market town of Bridport and shopping centre in Axminster and Seaton are close by. 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.
