No onward chain. Superb two double bedroom upper ground floor retirement
apartment that is sure to be the envy of others, given its size and location
in the building! 'The Pennings' was built in 2003 for the over sixty age
group, a short walk from Axbridge Town Square and its range of amenities.
**Location**
The Pennings is located close to the heart of the charming, centuries o ltown
of Axbridge. Being an historic market town allowed Axbridge to prosper via the
wool trade during the Medieval period. But, whilst there is much evidence of
the rebuilding and re - facing of buildings that took place in the town in the
18th and 19th centuries, the centre of Axbridge has changed little and retains
a number of early, listed buildings in the Square and main streets. The Square
still has the feel of a marketplace today and there is an excellent farmers'
market on the first Saturday of every month. There are several shops, a
pharmacy and a post office, and a good choice of places to eat and drink,
including the Almshouse tea rooms, the popular 2 aa rosette restaurant at the
Oak House hotel, and The Lamb and The Crown public houses. There is a local
bus service, which stops close to The Pennings, providing access to the
surrounding district and a more comprehensive range of shopping and leisure
facilities in the nearby town of Cheddar. Axbridge has a lively community with
many clubs and societies on offer. There is a local museum housed in the King
John's Hunting Lodge (National Trust) in the square, and an active parish
Church which organises regular concerts, f'eates and coffee mornings.
**Directions**
From Winscombe heading South on the Bridgwater Road (A38), proceed for
approximately 1. 5 miles. Take the left hand fork in the road onto the A371
signposted to Axbridge, Cheddar and Wells. After approximately 2 miles turn
right signposted to Axbridge opposite the Cheshire Home onto the Cheddar Road.
This in turn leads onto Jubilee Road, which becomes St. Mary's Street where The
Pennings can be found on the right hand side, immediately after Chestnut
Avenue.
Alternatively, if approaching from the Cross junction, the town of Axbridge
can be enjoyed by driving down West Street, which becomes the High Street, and
then passing through the medieval square to St. Marys Street.
