THE PROPERTY.
Woodhouse Heights is a highly individual and substantial detached house which was built about 25 years ago and designed to take advantage of its delightful elevated position. It has principally rendered elevations with stone quoins and detailing under a tiled roof and has versatile accommodation arranged over 3 floors. Under the current ownership (since 2010) it has been subject to considerable programme of improvement and refurbishment which has resulted in the very well-appointed home we find today which combines traditional features with a more modern approach to some of the fittings and finish.
Worthy of particular mention is the stunning vaulted kitchen/breakfast room which was designed and fitted by the highly regarded Spillers and features gloss units under granite tops with integral appliances, a Rangemaster cooker, contemporary free-standing wood burner, and French doors onto the sheltered patio. This beautiful room opens into another recent addition, the superb garden room with roof lantern which also opens onto the patio. Also worthy of note is the sitting room with its feature brick fireplace with inset wood-burner. Woodhouse Heights benefits from 5 bedrooms arranged over the first and second floors, two of which have en-suite shower rooms, and a family bathroom with a separate shower. It also offers a great deal of storage with many of the rooms having good wardrobe space and eaves storage.
GARDENS.
Woodhouse Heights is set well back from the lane and is approached over a tarmac pull-in and double gates onto a gravelled driveway which provides ample parking and gives access to the integral single garage which has a recently replaced electric door, power and light. To both sides of the house paved pathways and steps give access to the rear. On the western side, adjoining the kitchen/dining room and garden room is a large, private paved patio with retaining walls plus lavender beds and steps lead up the main garden which is laid to lawn together with flower/shrub borders and a greenhouse. Beyond this is a superb raised deck with canopy enjoying distant country views.
SITUATION.
Woodhouse Heights occupies a peaceful and pleasant elevated position overlooking open countryside with splendid views across the Axe Valley. Raymonds Hill is a semi-rural area on the Dorset/Devon border which has easy access to the surrounding countryside with many lovely walking opportunities close by. The highly desirable town of Lyme Regis is within about 3 miles and offers an excellent range of independent shops and business facilities, together with its famous Cobb harbour and stunning beaches. Woodhouse Heights is within the catchment area for the popular Woodroffe School at Lyme Regis (free coach travel available) and is also not far from the highly sought after Colyton Grammar School.
The busy market town of Axminster is within a few miles and has a main line rail connection to London Waterloo. The nearby A35 provides fast east/west access to the Cathedral City of Exeter and to London and the Home Counties.
DIRECTIONS.
From Bridport, follow the A35 west through the village of Chideock and Morcombelake and onto the Charmouth by-pass towards Honiton. On passing over the Devon border turn right into Green Lane at Raymonds Hill. Follow this lane to the junction with Crewkerne Road and continue straight over into Cooks Lane. Woodhouse Heights will be found after approximately a quarter of a mile on the left.
