Description
A superb contemporary, elegant house enjoying wonderful views of Lyme Regis and Lyme Bay in a quiet residential area. Arranged over three floors, the property offers much flexibility for a large family or those seeking multi-generation living opportunities or an income potential by letting out the self-contained ground floor level. The property was completely renovated and overhauled by the present owners who have created an extremely comfortable and well designed home which sits beautifully within it's coastal landscape.
Accommodation
Accommodation briefly comprises;
Top floor with entrance hall (with WC) from the front door leading to an open plan living room with wood burning stove and full length sliding glass doors, leading to a large balcony, enjoying panoramic views of coast and country. Clever glass 'pocket doors' allow the kitchen to be closed off from the sitting room or kept open plan. The kitchen has been beautifully designed with masses of storage hidden away behind handle-less soft close cabinets and drawers with a central island for informal dining and an induction hob. There are four eye-level built in ovens, a drinks fridge and built in dishwasher. Next to the kitchen, forming an l-shape is a cosy snug area used as a tv room currently.
Middle floor with three bedrooms and family bathroom. The principle bedroom enjoys an ensuite shower room and private, covered balcony offering a lovely place to enjoy a quiet morning coffee whilst enjoying the view.
Ground floor offers the option to be completely self contained with one double bedroom with fully equipped ensuite wet room, a beautiful open plan kitchen and living space with built in ovens and gas hob around a central island. There are full length glass doors directly onto a decked section of the garden. Underfloor heating services the whole ground floor.
Outside
Of note are the beautifully landscaped gardens with multi-level terracing gently tiering downwards away from the house with coastal planting schemes offering much texture and interest whilst remaining low-maintenance shrubs and plants leading into an orchard with established fruit trees and raised vegetable beds. There is a lovely summer house with power, light and decking, looking over the orchard as well as various seating areas and decks to enjoy the sun at different times of the day dotted about the peaceful gardens.
At the front of the house is a two car driveway (with ample additional on-street parking in the very quiet cul-de-sac) under the driveway is a large store area with ample space to store paddle boards, garden furniture and machinery. There are external access stairs from the garden to the middle floor. A handy pathway leads all the way around the house making access easy for maintenance to all areas.
Services
Gas fired central heating, mains drainage, water, electric. Standard Block and cavity construction under a tiled roof. Boiler is in the store room.
Electric blinds to feature windows. Alarm system.
Directions
From Bridport, take the A35 west towards Lyme Regis. Follow the road through the town on the A3502 and continue up the road on Sidmouth Road. Turn right at the top of the hill into Somers Road and take right fork onto Somer Fields, where Orchard House will be found on your right hand side a short way along.
