A replacement dwelling located high in Lyme Regis with views to Lyme Bay and along the Jurassic coast, this exciting new home finally gained planning approval in 2022.

​

​The existing house is a 60s bungalow crammed into the corner of the substantial site, making no use of the space and views available. The client came to us to design a large replacement home which would take advantage of the fantastic position and outlook this site has to offer.

​

The layout of the house is 'upside down' so that the key living spaces, master bedroom and balconies at first floor look out across Lyme bay, with the other bedrooms and utility rooms at ground floor will open out to the gardens.

​

While the house has a very contemporary form, it relates to the villa vernacular of Lyme Regis through its light materials (render, stone and aluminium) and will incorporate the latest in sustainable technologies to be a flagship example of contemporary residential architecture in Lyme.
