Trinity Hill Road, Axminster

SUMMARY
Fox & Sons are truly privileged to present to the market this breathtaking two-bedroom middle floor apartment, an exceptional home steeped in charm and character, set within a captivating period conversion of a former schoolhouse in the sought-after Trinity Hill area.


DESCRIPTION
Nestled within expansive, peaceful grounds, this remarkable 1920s Manor House is a place where history and refined modern living entwine effortlessly. The atmosphere is one of serenity and quiet grandeur, where every corner whispers stories of the past while embracing the comforts of contemporary life.

Inside, the apartment reveals a beautifully curated and generously proportioned interior, adorned with high ceilings and arched doorways that enhance the sense of space and elegance. From here, enchanting woodland vistas unfold of the beautiful Lym Valley, offering a rare and intimate connection to nature.


Thoughtfully designed, the property benefits from its own private entrance, leading into a welcoming and spacious hallway that immediately sets the tone for what lies beyond. The kitchen flows gracefully into a light-filled lounge, where four expansive south facing windows frame spellbinding countryside views, complemented by an additional west facing window that floods the room with natural light. The apartment further comprises two generously sized bedrooms, each offering comfort and tranquility, alongside a tastefully appointed bathroom.


There is a beautifully maintained and thoughtfully arranged front garden with lawn, patio, terraced flowerbeds and a summerhouse, plus a garage and additional communal parking.

This is more than a home — it is a rare and evocative sanctuary where history, beauty, and tranquility converge.

Front Garden  
The approach to the property is nothing short of enchanting with a delightful bridge that leads gracefully to the front porch and private entrance, adding a storybook quality to your arrival home.

The front garden is truly special - a welcoming lawn creates a sense of openness and calm whilst a charming patio area provides an inviting space for relaxation or al fresco dining, all framed by a combination of characterful stone walls and timber fencing that offer both privacy and a sense of rustic charm.

The garden itself is rich with mature character, featuring an abundance of established plants, vibrant flowerbeds and productive vegetable beds laid out across gentle terraces, and a tapestry of hedging and fruit trees that provide both colour and seclusion throughout the seasons.

Tucked within this idyllic setting is a charming summerhouse — perfect as a peaceful retreat, creative space, or simply a place to sit and soak in the tranquil surroundings.

Location  
The property is approached by a long and imposing tree-lined drive of nearly ¾ mile, through coniferous and deciduous woodland, bordered with rhododendrons. Retaining period character features throughout typical of its age, Flat 2 St. Marys occupies a superb location set within Trinity Hill Forest managed by the forestry commission, offering peaceful living whilst being within easy reach of both the beautiful coastal town of Lyme Regis and the historic market town of Axminster, and its mainline railway station serving London and Exeter

Adding to its unique allure, the property stands upon land believed to have once housed an ancient monastic centre known as St. Mary’s, reputed to have been a modest outpost of Glastonbury. Echoes of this rich heritage remain, with parts of the original walls and garden terraces still thought to endure, lending a profound sense of history to the surroundings. In more recent decades, St. Mary’s served as the cherished home of High Wych School, which relocated here in 1953 and remained until the early 1980s, before this distinguished building was thoughtfully transformed into just three exclusive apartments.
