Dragon's Hill, Dorset

Occupying an elevated position in a highly favoured small cul-de-sac on the edge of Lyme Regis, this exceptionally spacious 1970s detached bungalow enjoys far-reaching views over the town, with a westerly aspect to the front. Set within a generous plot of over a third of an acre, the property is surrounded by mature, landscaped gardens offering a good degree of privacy, abundant planting, and wildlife, including magnolias, camellias, hydrangeas, acer, bottle brush, and heathers. Southwest facing patios provide ideal spaces for indoor-outdoor living, accessible from multiple points in the house.
The accommodation is light-filled and generously proportioned throughout, providing excellent scope for updating and reconfiguration. The entrance hall, with its original parquet flooring, leads to four bedrooms, family bathroom, and a separate WC. The principal bedroom benefits from a large window with views and an ensuite bathroom with bath and shower over. The family bathroom also has a bath with shower over, complemented by the separate WC for convenience.
The living room is impressively spacious, featuring a gas fire and two sets of patio sliding doors opening onto the southwest facing garden, allowing for maximum light and views. The dining room also enjoys large windows and patio access, creating a bright and welcoming space for entertaining. The kitchen/breakfast room is exceptionally light, with views and space for an under-counter fridge and freezer, while the utility room provides space for a washing machine and tumble dryer and has potential for use as a second kitchen.
Practical features include a lift from the double garage to the second bedroom, providing valuable accessibility, and a huge loft, part-boarded with light, offering extensive storage. The bungalow has a mixture of UPVC and aluminium double-glazed windows throughout.
Externally, the double garage is accessed via two electric remote roller doors and includes light, power, and an outdoor water tap, as well as housing a floor-mounted Potterton Kingfisher boiler. Driveway parking is available for multiple vehicles.
This bungalow presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial home with elevated views in a sought-after location, with lovely gardens, flexible living spaces, offering considerable potential for modernisation, reconfiguration, or multi-generational living.
The seaside resort of Lyme Regis, famed for its historic connections and the Cobb Harbour remains popular with visitors. The town retains much of its original charm and a good variety of shops restaurants and places of interest to visit. There are many events throughout the year including a good range of live music and for those who would rather be on the sea, there are sailing and gig rowing clubs. This expanse of coast line has been designated a World Heritage Site and is affectionately known as the Jurassic coast. Bus services run regularly between the local towns of Bridport and Axminster, where the station runs a mainline service to London Waterloo and Exeter. The property is very well placed for proximity to the highly regarded Woodroffe Secondary School, which has been described by Ofsted as 'outstanding', with many house hunters seeking an address within the catchment area. Alternatively, the Colyton Grammar School, which is constantly ranked as one of the best in the country is approximately 8 miles to the west. A footpath adjoins Dragon Hill and leads to Timber Hill, in turn this connects with the South West Coast Path and Lyme Regis Golf Club.
