A very bright and spacious detached bungalow with a double garage and gated driveway, situated in the popular Raymonds Hill area, on the outskirts of Axminster.

The accommodation comprises three bedrooms, two bathrooms, living room with wood burning stove, large dining area, kitchen/breakfast room and utility room. At the back of the bungalow is an enclosed garden with lawned and paved areas, offering plenty of space for entertaining. At the front is a gravelled driveway providing parking for 3 vehicles and access to the double garage. The driveway is bordered by a grassy bank at the front which has been thoughtfully planted with Pittisporum bushes and a good Laurel hedge, which provides privacy. The property benefits from oil fired central heating and double glazed windows.
Raymonds Hill is a settlement just over 2 miles from the town of Axminster and lies in East Devon close to the border with Dorset. The area is well placed for access to the coast at Lyme Regis (about 3 miles to the south) and Charmouth (just over 3 miles to the east).
Axminster is an old market town made famous by the Axminster carpet company and is situated on the River Axe in East Devon. There is a main line train station with services to London Waterloo and Exeter and the town provides a good range of day to day shopping, banking and health needs with plenty of cafes. The popular seaside resort of Lyme Regis is less than 6 miles away and the surrounding area has been designated as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
