Dell Cottage is an imposing contemporary five bedroom detached residence set in a secluded position enjoying far reaching views over the village of Uplyme.
The property is a contemporary, detached, family residence ideal for a large family or multi generational living.
Dell Cottage was a bespoke property built for the current owners approximately 20 years ago.
The heating is oil and there are thermostats in every room with underfloor heating throughout the ground floor. The property has a rainwater harvesting system of 6000 litres that feeds the 7 toilets plus the outside tap and washing machine and can be easily reverted to mains.
As you walk into Dell Cottage you enter into an incredible double height galleried entrance hall with a reclaimed parquet floor. The imposing staircase leads to an impressive split landing with a full height picture window that looks over the grounds. There is also a
lift from the ground floor to the first floor landing. From the entrance hallway you can access all the main living accommodation which includes a well-equipped modern kitchen/ breakfast room with a large Island overlooking the garden and with access to it via double doors. There is a separate utility area just off the kitchen breakfast room with a rear entrance via a stable door. From the hallway you will also find a well sized study and a downstairs cloakroom. There is a triple aspect sitting room with double doors leading to the sun terrace which wraps around two sides of the property and affords garden and far reaching views of the Lyme Valley. These rooms have well-proportioned dimensions and of note in this room is a feature fireplace with oak surround and a Villager log burner. The house also boasts a substantial dining room which adjoins the entrance hall via double doors and has double doors to the garden.
The property has 5 large double bedrooms on two floors. The first floor is currently configured with 3 double bedrooms, 2 with en-suite shower rooms. A third Bedroom benefits from a family bathroom next to it. A well-proportioned double bedroom with balcony and stunning views, a separate dressing room and a fully equipped wheelchair friendly bathroom with walk in shower, whirlpool bath, a disabled wc and vanity unit (this bedroom originally formed part of a granny annexe). An extensive master suite can be found on the second floor via a spiral staircase from the landing and sits above the majority of the first floor, this includes a large en suite shower room and affords glorious views across the Lyme Valley.

This charming village has a variety of local amenities including a petrol station, post office, church, school, village hall with cricket pavilion and play area and a friendly pub with a delightful beer garden.
About a mile away is the bustling and picturesque town of Lyme Regis. Lyme is part of the stunning Jurassic Coast which stretches from Dorset to East Devon. The town has a thriving heart offering convenience and bespoke shopping of a surprising variety for a town of its size, as well as a number of renowned popular restaurants and historic hotels. The town has a good provision of day to day amenities including banks, a health centre, churches, well regarded primary and secondary schooling. Lyme has a fantastic family beach with golden sands, shallow waters and charming rock pools ideal for intrepid little explorers.
There is certainly enough to entertain and satisfy any age with the wealth of easily accessed beaches along this pretty stretch of coast.
The whole area is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and has excellent walking and opportunities for a number of pursuits, from a spot of mackerel fishing to fossil hunting.
Dell Cottage is a convenient 4 miles away from the mainline station at Axminster with services to London Waterloo, making the area an ideal weekend or holiday retreat with excellent road and rail access further westwards into Devon and Cornwall. The larger historic cities of Exeter and Bath are accessible by road or rail to cater for further needs.
Outside, the 0.62 acres of grounds wraps around the property and the privately owned drive gives rise to a gated chipped stone parking and turning area with space to park several vehicles. To the side of this is a substantial timber garage/workshop which could house a number of vehicles or a small boat. Next to this is a timber L shaped cabin which has been used in the past for extra ancillary accommodation. The cabin offers income potential (subject to planning).
The gardens are largely laid to lawn and are frequently visited by the local deer and birds which makes for quite the nature enclave. The lawns are level and gently sloping in places and have deep borders and mature shrubs and trees.
Throughout the garden you can see the views of the surrounding countryside and glimpses of the Lyme viaduct. There is a large sun terrace from which to entertain and enjoy the position. It is worth noting there is also an outside gardener's toilet that includes a shower, perfect for muddy dogs, dirty children or keen gardeners!
