Overview

Overton House is one of Lyme Regis’s finest homes, finished to an excellent standard and with unrivalled quality throughout. The property occupies an impressive elevated position that provides splendid views of Lyme Bay and the famous Cobb. A recent extensive refurbishment to an exacting specification has created a magnificent family home with flexible, spacious accommodation, along with an attached self contained two-bedroom annexe.

An elegant reception hall leads to a large dual aspect drawing room and the striking open plan kitchen/dining room that was designed and built by local craftsman Marc Smith Bespoke. The impressive kitchen offers handle-less doors, brass gola rails, quartz worktops, a brass champagne sink, handcrafted oak wine rack, boiling water tap, an integrated coffee machine, warming drawer, twin ovens, double dishwashers and LED mood lighting.

From the kitchen, bifold doors lead to a wonderful dining terrace against the backdrop of beautiful Lyme Bay. The property also benefits from a utility room, boot room and a fitted wine cellar with bespoke storage and a wine cooler. There is a wonderful space for entertaining provided in the games room, which has a bespoke bar and attractive parquet floor. Yet more outstanding sea views can be enjoyed from this ground floor vantage point.

The first and second floors of the property are of significant proportions, hosting fine and exquisitely designed bedrooms, dressing rooms and en suite bathrooms. Five of the seven bedrooms have luxurious high specification en suite bath or shower rooms, with a large family bathroom servicing the remaining two bedrooms. The capacious principal suite located on the second floor has truly unrivalled waterside views incorporating the historic Cobb. The principal bedroom has a large en-suite bathroom with a walk in shower and free standing bath, with a separate dressing room and walk in wardrobe.

The landing space of the second floor provides a superb area which could be used as a quiet reading space/library/office, with a door giving access to the back garden, from which unrivalled views can again be fully appreciated. Completing the property is a gym, plus a sauna and steam room.

The adjoining two storey annexe provides further beautifully presented accommodation in the form of open plan kitchen/dining room, separate sitting room with garden access, two bedrooms and a family bathroom.
