Full Description
Axminster is a small ancient market town surrounded by beautiful countryside, situated in East Devon close to the West Dorset and Somerset borders. The town offers a wide range of amenities with a large selection of shops and coffee shops/ restaurants including tv chef Hugh Fearnley Whittingstalls' River Cottage Canteen and Stores, Trinity House Department Store and various other small independent shops. The town also benefits from a traditional market held every Thursday in the centre of town. Other facilities include a library, doctors and dentist surgeries and a hospital. Various sports activities and facilities are available at Flamingo Pools and the Axe Valley and Cloakham Lawn sports centres. The town also has a secondary and two primary schools.
Oak Tree House is presented in excellent order throughout and provides flexible accommodation offering a large family home with separate annexe ideal for a dependant relative. The main property also lends itself to become a B&B and with the additional use of the annexe this could be let separately as a holiday let as it benefits from its own separate drive, parking and garden area. Extensive grounds surround the house and enjoy far reaching views across the countryside.
