Quay Hill, Lymington, Hampshire, SO41 3AR

Grade II listed Georgian town house with five bedrooms, private courtyard and successful holiday-let income.

Description

A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully refurbished Grade II listed Georgian town house, ideally positioned on the famous cobbled Quay Hill in the heart of Lymington.

Combining period character with modern comforts, the property is currently operated as a successful holiday let, whilst also offering an excellent main residence or second home.

The property retains a wealth of period features, including its attractive Georgian façade and striking full-drop box-bay window overlooking the cobbles. Extending to approximately 1,383 sq ft over three floors, the accommodation comprises five bedrooms, two bath/shower rooms, a ground floor cloakroom and well-proportioned reception spaces.

The ground floor includes a welcoming entrance hall, spacious sitting room with fireplace and box-bay window, dining room with exposed floorboards, and a fitted kitchen with direct access to the private courtyard.

The first floor provides three bedrooms, two with fitted storage, and a family bathroom, while the second floor offers two further bedrooms with exposed beams and dormer windows, together with a shower room.

The property has been further enhanced by the current owners with new fitted wardrobes and bookshelves to the sitting room, principal bedroom and hallway, alongside upgraded curtains and blinds. They also installed the new fireplace in the sitting room.

To the rear is a private wooden decked courtyard with a store room. Planning permission is currently being sought for a rear roof terrace, new full-width kitchen, relocation of the ground floor WC and a dormer extension to create a larger bath/shower room.

The property is an established and successful holiday let, registered for business rates and currently benefiting from a 100% small business rates exemption. It has generated proven revenue over several years, with an approximately 80% profit margin after cleaning fees and utilities, equating to a gross yield of around 6% based on the purchase price.
