The major portion of a Grade II* Listed coastal mansion including the Great Hall with extensive sea & coastline views.

The Rousdon Estate is situated on the East Devon coastline about 2.5 miles from the Dorset border at Lyme Regis. It is one of most beautiful and unspoilt locations on the Devon and Dorset ‘Jurassic Coast’ . It comprises parkland with a variety of mature trees, farmland and extensive areas of woodland (extending in all to about 350 acres) including a Nature Reserve which is leased to English Nature. Each property has the benefit of walks within the Estate and access to a private beach (Charton Beach) and also the famous ‘Undercliff’ coastal footpath between Lyme Regis and the Axe Estuary and Axmouth. At Rousdon there is a village stores, petrol station and garage.

The Mansion is Listed Grade II* as being of significant architectural or historic importance and is now divided into 6 separate houses.

Architecturally it is a fascinating property being arranged around a central courtyard. Built of stone under a red tiled roof, it takes the best from English architecture, beginning with the Tudor style, to the massive Jacobean Great Hall, tall Tudor chimneys and arched balcony at first floor level, more reminiscent of Venice. It is constructed to the highest quality the Victorians could produce, under the design brilliance of Ernest George, originally of George and Vaughan and later George and Peto.
