Hawkchurch Axminster, EX13

A truly stunning home, set within beautiful gardens on the outer edge of the sought-after village of Hawkchurch. From the moment you arrive, it’s clear this is something special in an exceptional rural position with views over the surrounding countryside.

The Property
A substantial detached property which was originally a stone-built barn extended and converted into a dwelling in the 1970's and subsequently significantly enlarged to create the charming property you see today.

Accommodation
A very pretty barn conversion perfectly renovated and modernised by the current owner to suit modern family living. The property is approached through a five-bar gate, onto a drive that sweeps down through to the parking and the garaging. You enter the house into an impressive dining hall, which immediately sets the warmth of this stunning home and leads through to the main living areas. The beautiful sitting room, with its striking stone inglenook fireplace and fitted log burner leads into a cosy snug and impressive library. This room is a real highlight of the home with a Minster stone fireplace, woodburning stove, extensive bookshelves and dual aspect windows. The kitchen is a space designed for both cooking and entertaining and features a central island, a good range of units fitted with an inset stainless-steel sink and drainer, hob with cooker hood, two ovens and an integral fridge. As you would expect for a house of this size, there is both a boot room, perfect after a muddy winter’s walk, as well as a utility room, which has a stainless-steel sink and space for the washing machine and tumble dryer and to complete the ground floor accommodation, a study for peace and quiet when working from home.

To the first floor there are four bedrooms with the principal bedroom being quietly situated to the rear, so best to enjoy views out over the countryside, as well as having an en-suite bathroom and a superb range of fitted wardrobes, it also has a door to the terrace, which is a wonderful spot to enjoy the evening sun. Bedroom two is also fitted with en-suite facilities with the remaining two bedrooms having the use of the family bathroom.

Outside
Stepping outside, the property enjoys a beautifully designed terrace area perfect for barbecue or alfresco dining with great views over the garden and adjoining farmland. The garden features a lawned area with herbaceous beds and fruit trees, and a winding path that leads to a secluded and tranquil haven which used to be the croquet lawn, bordered by a stream at the bottom. Adjacent to the driveway is the access to the paddock with the total plot amounting to around 2.495 acres.
