GARDENS & GROUNDS.
2 Blamphayne Sawmills stands in approximately one third of an acre, surrounded by fields over which the property gains splendid views. It benefits from gently sloping lawned gardens with a level terrace adjoining to the house, making an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining. The garden rises more steeply at the top from where the views are spectacular. A large bank has been landscaped and well stocked with a colourful variety of shrubs. This borders a gravel area and a pathway that leads to an area suitable for garden sheds. At the far side of the house a path leads around to steps that rise to the terrace outside the principal bedroom and beyond the steps, a gate gives access to the front of the property. The lower part of the garden is stocked with a mix of mature shrubs, perennials and herbs and with a pathway leading down to a small orchard in the lower corner of the garden.
At the front of the property is a large shared gravelled courtyard area which leads to a double garage. The property also benefits from an outside tap, external power socket on the terrace and lighting on PIR sensors.
SITUATION.
2 Old Blamphayne Sawmills is situated within the tiny hamlet of Blamphayne, which in turn nestles in a beautiful valley between the market town of Honiton and the coast at Lyme Bay. The property takes full advantage of this wonderful location and gains splendid far-reaching views over typical Devon rolling landscape. Country walks emanate virtually from one’s doorstep with The East Devon Way, a picturesque inland trail of some 38 miles being close by, as well as a myriad of local footpaths and the Southwest Coastal Path which runs along the magnificent World Heritage Jurassic Coast.
The property sits in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is within a few miles of the desirable town of Colyton. Colyton is an attractive, historic town with a village feel and a good range of amenities and local facilities. The beautiful Norman Church is the centre point of the town which is most famous for its role in the 1685 Monmouth Rebellion. On the edge of the town is the Seaton Tramway Station which operates services along the Axe Estuary, linking Colyton and Seaton. Colyton Grammar School is another draw for the area as the school consistently appears in the top 10 mixed state schools in the country.
The busy market town of Honiton lies approximately 6 miles to the north and has an extensive range of independent shops including many antique shops, community hospital, schooling, and a main line rail link to London Waterloo. Approximately 6 miles to the south is the World Heritage Jurassic Coast with popular towns and beaches at Seaton, Lyme Regis and Sidmouth being easily accessible. The Cathedral City of Exeter is some 24 miles distant with an excellent shopping centre, theatres, main line rail link to London Waterloo, express line to Paddington, M5 motorway access and Exeter international airport.
DIRECTIONS.
From Honiton High Street turn onto New Street and proceed to the top of the hill, turning left at the mini roundabout. Turn almost immediately right signposted Seaton. Climb the hill and continue past the Golf Course and take the third turning on the left (after about 2 miles) signposted Blamphayne. After about 200 yards take the first right hand turn and continue for about 1 mile. Turn into the gravelled courtyard and 2 Blamphayne Sawmills will be found in front of you.
