An exclusive development of family homes set amongst the unspoilt and spectacular Blackdown Hills. This development is set on the edge of an attractive village surrounded by land designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Hemyock

This thriving village is set in an attractive valley within the Blackdown Hills, giving a sense of being away from the hustle and bustle of modern life, whilst still being within easy reach of Taunton, Honiton, Tiverton and Exeter. The motorway at Wellington is only 5 miles away and the main line station at Taunton 10 miles away.

Hemyock is the largest village in the Blackdown Hills with a rich and varied history going back to its roots in the 12th Century. It even has its own claim to fame with the Cadbury family, famous for their chocolate, originating from the village.

Today the village is busy and vibrant with a great sense of community and a wide range of amenities. A Pre-school and primary school are located in the village, with secondary education based in the nearby village of Uffculme. Both Wellington and Taunton also offer a choice of excellent co-educational private schools from pre-prep to A Level.

Being larger the village has retained many of the features lost by others over recent years, including a pub, shops, post office and medical facilities. The village also boasts excellent new sports amenities with the traditional cricket square and tennis courts being joined by floodlit multi-sport pitches.

The countryside surrounding Hemyock has an abundance of public footpaths and bridleways, from high in the hills to the River Culm that winds through the valley, whether on horse-back or on foot.

The Blackdown Hills have been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the homes at Churchill’s Rise have this as a spectacular backdrop, whilst still being within easy walking distance of the village centre and its many amenities.

The Properties

Churchill's Rise - Site Plan

This site plan was drawn up before construction began on site. Whilst it is always our intention to build in accordance with this plan, there are occasions where boundaries may change as the development proceeds. Please check the details of your chosen home with our sales representatives at the point of reservation. The deeds will be sent to you via our solicitors and should be inspected by you when you visit. Click plans to see larger version

The exclusive development provides contemporary accommodation using the latest construction methods and modern materials but with an emphasis on creating a comfortable living environment. Energy efficiency is of the highest importance and sustainable sources have been used where-ever possible during the building process.

Insulation, double glazing and heating systems are also of the highest standards required under new building regulations and Government guidelines to provide a classic home with all of the convenience of a modern home.

The development is based around a cul-de-sac to provide greater peace and quiet with room for the kids to play more safely.

All the homes feature fitted kitchens and bathrooms and many offer the added luxury of an en-suite to the main bedroom. Depending on the stage of the build purchasers can decide on their choice of tiles for making their new home truly individual to their own design. More details can be found in the Specification section. Every home also benefits from a garage or off-road parking.
