Description
3 St. Georges Hill is an attractive and well positioned detached bungalow, situated within a pleasant cul-de-sac location on the outskirts of Lyme Regis.
The property is constructed of brick elevations under a tiled roof, and offers generous living space throughout. Whilst the bungalow has been very well cared for by the current owner, it would now benefit from some updating, and represents a great opportunity for prospective purchasers to further improve. Sea and coastal views can be afforded from both the living room and master bedroom, as well as from areas of the rear garden looking towards Golden Cap.
The rear garden is a particularly attractive feature, with a small lawn and further patio area which wraps around the property and with further tiered levels to the side of the outside space. There is also driveway parking for two to three vehicles as well as a double garage.
The bungalow is offered to the market with no onward chain.
Lyme Regis is a picturesque coastal town noted for its many character buildings, centuries old Cobb Harbour and unspoilt surrounding countryside. The town centre provides good shopping facilities for day to day needs and the larger centres of Taunton and Exeter are both about 28 miles away. There is a main line railway station at Axminster (6 miles inland). In Lyme Regis there is also a sailing club, bowls, golf course, theatre and numerous local societies.
The town is situated on the beautiful and unspoilt Devon and Dorset ‘Jurassic Coast’ awarded World Heritage Site status by UNESCO in December 2001.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on Area rent estimate.
- Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
- Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
- Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
- Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
