THE HOUSES.
Haydon Finch Studio have designed a unique pair of houses set on an extraordinary site nestled above Lyme Regis on the Jurassic Coast. These super low-energy homes will provide contemporary living by the sea, with the 21st century family lifestyle in mind. They have been carefully designed by architects and interior designers with consideration for every detail, incorporating high-quality and low-maintenance finishes.
The development comprises two large ultralow energy homes set within a private gated site. Each home is
carefully designed to achieve internationally recognised standards for energy efficient building (Passivhaus, or AECB). Whether escaping city life, downsizing or simply looking for a new family home, these dwellings are designed to the highest modern standards and with versatility in mind.
A series of privately screened terraces and outdoor spaces draw you out into the open during good weather. When the seas bring rain and wind you can retreat inside and enjoy the expansive views from within cosy bedrooms and living spaces.
The houses congregate around a shared courtyard which provides extra parking for visitors and access to generous open-sided carports. Alongside sheltered front doors, secondary entrances provide dedicated access to the ground floor ensuite bedroom, which provides flexibility for visitors, be they family, friends or holiday rentals.
Each home boasts a generous open plan kitchen, dining and living space, which can open out onto a generous rear garden terrace. Flawless craftsmanship, clean lines and understated elegance combine to give a contemporary Nordic style, setting the scene for an inspired escape. Each master suite includes an ensuite bathroom and spacious dressing room area, along with a double-height bedroom with skylights and sublime south westerly views towards the sea.
SITUATION.
Colway Gate is conveniently located on the outskirts of the town and is just a short walk (circa 0.7 mile) away from the beach and the magnificent South West Coastal Path, which stretches right along the Dorset coastline and from which the exceptionally picturesque scenery can be enjoyed.
Lyme Regis has an extensive range of independent shops and boutiques and is famous for its historical harbour and Cobb. There are also many recreational and sporting facilities which include a sailing club, bowls, sea fishing and also a well-respected golf course which sits on the top of the cliff.
The busy market town of Axminster lies approximately 6 miles to the north-west and also has an excellent variety of shops and a mainline rail link to London Waterloo. There are some excellent schools close at hand and Colway Gate is within the catchment area of the 'outstanding' Woodroffe School, and Colyton Grammar, one of the country's top mixed state schools, is some 6 miles away.
The nearby A35 gives fast access to Exeter which has an international airport and express rail link to London Paddington, and Taunton with M5 motorway connections. The market town of Bridport, which has excellent shopping, sporting and leisure facilities lies approximately 11 miles to the east.
