Summary - 12 WATERSMEET ROAD LYNMOUTH EX35 6EP
6 bed 1 bath Guest House
Six-bedroom Grade II home with sea-view terraces and trading potential.
Six bedrooms across three floors with five en-suite rooms reported
Set above Lynmouth with wide coastal views, this Grade II listed Georgian/Victorian house offers substantial, flexible accommodation across three floors. Six bedrooms (five described as en-suite in marketing materials) and generous public rooms reflect its established use as a successful guest house, with terraced gardens, sea-view patios and direct access to Exmoor National Park attractions.
The freehold property presents a clear trading or lifestyle opportunity: excellent broadband and mobile signal, low flooding and very low local crime support year-round letting. On-site parking and multiple entrances add practical convenience for guests or a large household. Beautiful period features are retained alongside modern kitchen fittings noted in the description.
Important drawbacks are factual and significant. The building’s Grade II listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate any refurbishment or expansion; buyers should budget for specialist consent and higher maintenance costs. The dataset lists only one bathroom despite five en-suites being stated; interested parties must verify the exact sanitary provision. The wider area is classified as deprived, which may affect staffing, seasonal demand variation and long-term value dynamics.
This property suits an operator seeking an iconic coastal B&B with growth potential or a buyer wanting a large family house with income potential. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the views, garden tiers and interior period detail, and to confirm room-by-room configuration and any listed-building constraints before offer.
