The town is located on the Jurassic World Heritage Site and within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The town has a thriving community with excellent shopping, business and leisure facilities . Axminster offers a rail service to London and the thriving town of Bridport is also close by.
Briar Lodge is a very attractive and substantial semi-detached Edwardian house, with two apartments and off-road parking. It was built in circa 1910 with later additions, having classic colour-washed, pebbledash elevations under a mainly clay tiled roof (the modern rear extension has a green roof). Under the current ownership, since 2014, the house has been subject to a whole number of alterations and refurbishment to a very good standard. The house still retains original features, including high ceiling, deep skirting boards, panelled doors, original timber windows with secondary double glazing, herringbone wood flooring, fireplace with multi-fuel stove and exposed floorboards.

Brick paved pathways lead onto areas of lawn together with raised beds and pergola with well established vine. A gate gives access onto woodland (belonging to the Woodland Trust).

Accomodation - The main house has a newly upgraded kitchen with marble composite worktops and Neff oven and electric hob. The apartments both offer modern kitchen and shower rooms.
