4 SITUATION Wildway House occupies a wonderful country setting on an escarpment, enjoying magnificent views across the Yarty Valley. Whilst situated within the countryside, the property is by no means isolated, being within a few miles of the small town of Chard with its good day to day amenities. The village of Membury is within a few miles, with its ancient church and post office store and the property is also close to the small town of Axminster with good amenities, supermarkets and Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall s award winning River Cottage Restaurant and Deli. Honiton lies to the south west and has good day to day shopping, whilst the larger centres of Taunton and Exeter both offer excellent shopping, Exeter having the Princesshay shopping mall and John Lewis store, with many well-known high street stores in Taunton. The West Country boasts excellent schools, Exeter School and Maynard s in Exeter, and in Taunton, King s College, Queen s College, Taunton School and the Richard Huish Sixth Form College. Sherborne, Millfield and Hazlegrove Schools, and Blundell s at Tiverton, are also easily accessible. The East Devon coast is within half an hour s drive with its pretty coastal villages and small towns, including Sidmouth, Branscombe and Beer, and Lyme Regis on the Jurassic Coast. COMMUNICATIONS The A30 and A303 are within easy reach and the M5 can be joined at Taunton, Wellington and Exeter. Fast trains to London Paddington leave Taunton and are scheduled to arrive within an hour and forty five minutes on the fast service, and both Axminster and Honiton have stations on the Great Western line with trains to Waterloo via Sherborne. Exeter airport is within easy reach, and likewise Bristol airport, which provides both national and international flights. Ferry ports with regular channel crossings are found at Plymouth, Poole, Southampton and Portsmouth.

5 THE PROPERTY Built to a traditional design in 1946, this handsome family house offers a good combination of reception space and bedrooms. An elegant drawing room stretches across the front of the house and opens out onto the terrace, enjoying glorious views, and an archway through to a sitting area. There is also a dining room, a study and a well-fitted kitchen, which leads out into a splendid conservatory enjoying the glorious outlooks. The bedrooms are all of a good size, well served with bathrooms, and all the principal rooms enjoy good outlooks. It is the setting which is so special at Wildways House, with a drive leading off the passing country lane down to a generous parking area and a quadruple open fronted garage, built in keeping with the main house. GARDENS AND GROUNDS A circular turning area and driveway provides good parking and is found adjacent to the quadruple open fronted garage with pillared uprights. There is a large terrace to the front of the house enjoying the glorious views, and lawned gardens which stretch out to the south, partly shaded by a number of mature trees. Two paddocks are found beyond, making the property ideal for those with equestrian interests. The land includes a belt of woodland, which offsets a further field and leads down to a large wildlife pond. Further wooded grounds surround the stable yard where there are a number of loose boxes, substantial barns, garages and kennels, as set out in the accompanying floor plans. In all the gardens and grounds amount to about hectares ( acres). jackson-stops.co.uk
