Kilmington, Axminster, Devon, EX13 7HF

Broad View is a handsome detached residence which was built, we believe, about 100 years ago and is of traditional construction with rendered elevations under a slated roof.

It sits just off the quiet country lane commanding glorious panoramic views over the adjoining fields, wooded hills and the Axe Valley which stretches into the distance to the south.

The house itself retains a wealth of character and has well-proportioned rooms with high ceilings and large windows.

There are some delightful features and worthy of particular mention is the superb stair hall with its patterned tiled floor and period staircase, and the large double aspect drawing room with its ornate fire surround and wood burner.

The property also benefits from a second reception room with a wood burner which opens into a dining area with patio doors to the side.

Broad view has been under the same ownership for over 25 years and is now in need of a programme of refurbishment and modernisation.

It offers an excellent opportunity for those looking to put their stamp on an attractive period house located in a beautiful country position. OUTSIDE.

Broad View is approached through a timber 5-bar gate onto a driveway which provides parking for several vehicles.

A pathway then takes you to the rear of the property where there is a useful timber outbuilding which provides two sheds and an open store.

The gardens are divided into two principal areas, laying to the south and east of the house, and are in the main laid to level lawns which are interspersed with shrub beds and specimen trees.

They take full advantage of the magnificent panoramic views over a typical Devon patchwork countryside. SITUATION.

Broad View sits in a commanding position on the edge of the Blackdown Hills National Landscape and is surrounded by some of the county’s most attractive rolling countryside over which there are glorious walks close at hand.
