5 Bed Detached House For Sale

A lovely 1930's 5 bedroom detached family property peacefully located on a 'no through' road and within easy reach of all amenities. EPC: Band E

Dating from the 1930's and substantially built with rendered elevations set beneath a tiled roof, this attractive family home offers generous and welcoming accommodation with character and charm. The ground floor layout provides two spacious reception rooms, both double aspect and with open fireplaces, together with a cosy study/bedroom and a conservatory. The kitchen is well fitted with a walk in pantry, electric Aga and separate utility off, whilst a useful wet room next to the study offers the possibility of an annexe with independent access. At first floor level there are four excellent double bedrooms with long range views across surrounding countryside, a nursery/study and a family bathroom. Some updating is probably desirable but this is a wonderful opportunity for buyers to put their own stamp on the house and create a lovely family home.
From the public road, double gates give access to a wide tarmac driveway and parking area together with a single garage. The house sits well within its plot with mature garden on all sides, mainly laid to lawn with well stocked herbaceous borders, rose beds, ornamental shrubs and specimen trees. There are various useful outbuildings including a new workshop, two garden sheds and a summerhouse.

The property is quietly located towards the end of a 'no through' road on the edge of the small market town of Axminster, with views over countryside beyond but within easy reach of all amenities. Axminster provides an excellent range of day to day amenities with a choice of major supermarkets, many independent retailers and an intercity rail service (London Waterloo). The World Heritage Jurassic Coast is just 6 miles away at Lyme Regis with its iconic Cobb harbour and associated water sports and the Cathedral City of Exeter is also very accessible with excellent shopping and leisure facilities, access to the M5 and Exeter international airport.
