House For Sale £725,000
A stunning Grade II Listed attached period house offering beautifully proportioned 4 bedroom accommodation, a lovely private garden and surrounded by glorious unspoilt countryside. EPC: Band E
Records show a dwelling on this site at the time of the Domesday Book but, much of what is evident today dates back to the 1800's, latterly divided and redeveloped to form a delightful courtyard of five very individual dwellings. Berry Manor House forms the major part of the original farmhouse and has been sympathetically and meticulously updated by the current vendors to create a light and welcoming country home with superbly proportioned rooms and excellent ceiling heights. A magnificent entrance hallway with elegant staircase, flagstone flooring and panelling offers a taste of what is to come with two beautiful reception rooms, a study, well fitted kitchen/breakfast room that overlooks the courtyard, cloakroom and utility room. A full height window on the half landing offers superb views and allows light to flood through to the main landing where there are four superb double bedrooms, plus a dressing room or nursery, two with en-suite facilities, and a contemporary family bathroom. The icing on the cake is a fabulous games room/gym at lower ground floor level with access to the courtyard. The property benefits from Heritage double glazing and oil fired central heating.
From the public road, the driveway leads to an extensive brick paved parking area and double garage with automatic door. At the front of the house is a beautiful private garden with level lawns, large ornamental pond and sheltered terracing with views over the surrounding countryside. To the rear of the property is a secluded courtyard, shared by all the properties, enjoying a sunny South West aspect and enhancing the sense of privacy. This is a unique property in a very special location and worthy of early inspection.
Note: The vendors have planning consent for a single storey extension on the kitchen.
The property is set in a peaceful rural position surrounded by glorious unspoilt countryside on the Devon/Dorset border and enjoys privacy and seclusion but without isolation. The thriving village of Hawkchurch is just over 1 mile away with a pub, community shop, primary school and church whilst the traditional small town of Axminster is about 5 miles distant with a choice of major supermarkets, smaller retailers and a bustling Thursday market. Lyme Regis is a similar distance away with its iconic Cobb harbour, a wide range of pubs, restaurants and boutique shopping, together with access to the World Heritage Jurassic Coast. There are excellent road and rail communications with the A35 easily accessible and the A303 and M5 motorway within easy reach whilst Axminster benefits from an hourly rail service to London Waterloo and Exeter.
