SUMMARY
Fox & Sons are delighted to bring to the market this stunning two bedroom top floor apartment, situated within a period conversion of a former schoolhouse within the Trinity Hill area.
DESCRIPTION
Set within extensive and tranquil grounds, history and modernity intertwine seamlessly in this impressive 1920's Manor House. A well presented and spacious interior with high ceilings throughout, stunning woodland views and beautiful private garden leading down to the forest and Lym Valley make this a truly exceptional property.
Featuring its own private entrance, staircase leading to large landing with a useful study area, open plan kitchen/diner, lounge, two bedrooms, bathroom, garage with designated parking area and further communal parking.
It is believed that the existing buildings were constructed on the site of an ancient monastic centre called St. Mary's, reputedly a small outpost of Glastonbury. We understand that some of the original walls and garden terraces still remain. Until the mid 1980's St. Mary's was the home of High Wych School, originally established in Lyme Regis and then moved to this site from1953 to the early 1980‘s, when it was converted into three apartments.
The property is approached by a long and imposing tree-lined drive of nearly ¾ mile, through coniferous and deciduous woodland, bordered with rhododendrons. Retaining period character features throughout typical of its age, Flat 3 St. Marys occupies a superb location set within Trinity Hill Forest managed by the forestry commission, offering peaceful living whilst being within easy reach of both the beautiful coastal town of Lyme Regis and the historic market town of Axminster.
