The Property
The Old Garage is an exceptional ground floor apartment, thoughtfully created from a former 1920s motor garage and workshop. Hidden behind its period façade, this remarkable home combines original industrial features with modern design, resulting in a distinctive and highly desirable coastal residence. Extensively enlarged to the rear, the property now provides generous and versatile living accommodation, carefully designed to retain its character. Exposed steel ceiling joists, the original inspection chamber and contemporary finishes create an attractive blend of old and new throughout.
Accommodation
At the heart of the home is a superb living room featuring a vaulted ceiling, engineered oak flooring and bi fold patio doors that seamlessly connect the interior with the garden and stunning coastal outlook beyond. The spacious kitchen/dining room is equally impressive, fitted with a comprehensive range of modern units and benefiting from underfloor heating, making it an excellent space for both everyday living and entertaining. There are two two well-proportioned bedrooms, including a generous principal suite with en suite shower room. A contemporary family bathroom and useful utility/storage cupboard complete the internal layout.
Outside
The attractive garden has been arranged over two levels and enjoys a delightful coastal ambience with decked and gravelled seating areas. From various vantage points, there are lovely views across Lyme Regis towards the sea and surrounding coastline. A particularly valuable feature is the integral garage, providing secure parking and storage, a rare and sought-after asset within such close proximity to Lyme Regis town.
Situation
The Old Garage occupies a high profile position along Silver Street, close to the heart of the town centre and seafront. Lyme Regis is a most popular and picturesque coastal town noted for its attractive period buildings, the famous centuries-old Cobb and harbour.
