The property

Lyme Regis 1 mile. Red House is a substantial family home set in a unique and stunning location in Uplyme near Lyme Regis, Devon. Set in picturesque grounds with acres of land, including a former double grass tennis court, croquet lawn and a patio with heated outdoor living room with coffee/tea and table football and hot tub, this magnificent residence provides an exceptional base for exploring Devon and Dorset. It was added as additional accommodation to a magnificent 200 year old late - Jacobean house built by Admiral Sir John Talbot (who served with Lord Nelson), and funded by his Royal Navy Bounties for capturing enemy ships. You will find the ample off-road parking area at the side of the house. Step inside and first discover the kitchen/living space, featuring a centre island with granite tops, a large AGA cooker and other integrated appliances, sure to inspire some home-cooking. Enjoy mealtimes in the elegant dining room, toasting to a special getaway, before escaping to the snug for a cosy evening by the open fire or the large sitting room with TV. Find the 6 double beds upstairs, offering a family en-suite room with two king beds , three double bedrooms and a master ensuite bedroom with magnificent valley / sea views from the veranda. Both en-suites have roll top baths and there is a large walk in shower room for something quicker. The quality of this home continues outside; a large patio space is well-equipped for summer barbecues and alfresco dining, plus the inviting hot tub offers a fantastic way to end the evening. Work up a sweat in the sauna, challenge each other to a game of ping-pong, all from the cellar and outdoor living room that has table football. The charming village of Uplyme is nearby, offering a traditional green and a great choice of pubs serving up delicious fare after a long day. From Uplyme, there is a riverside walk from the village into Lyme Regis with its family-friendly beaches, independent shops and galleries, along with must see attractions including the iconic Cobb Harbour and Aquarium. Head to Charmouth, perfect for a day out fossil hunting on the beach or dive into the area’s fascinating history at the Heritage Coast Centre.
