Situation

Understood to have been constructed during the late part of the 1940’s this fine bungalow was one of 20 bungalows built for several members of the Axminster Carpets pre-war workforce when they returned home. To ensure that the workers could be retained, the company set up a self-build scheme providing a bricklayer, a carpenter and the materials, with the factory workers labouring for a few hours a day after their shifts were over. The property occupies a good position within a most favoured residential location less than half a mile from Axminster train station with its direct line to London Waterloo and Exeter. Axminster is a bustling market town on the eastern fringes of Devon, close to the border with West Dorset and South Somerset. The beautiful Axe Valley with its renowned bird sanctuary reaches the sea at Seaton (6 miles) and the famed beaches of the World Heritage Jurassic Coast and the resort of Lyme Regis are at a similar distance. Exeter (M5) is 28 miles, and Taunton 21 miles. Axminster itself offers a selection of shops including two supermarkets, as well as churches, cafes and restaurants.
