About Mill Brook Green

Development Overview

Mill Brook Green is a new build development by Linden Homes, part of the Vistry Group, situated on Chard Road in the market town of Axminster, East Devon (EX13 5HW). The initial phase of this development, which offered a range of 1 to 4-bedroom new build homes, is now fully sold. A new phase of 4-bedroom properties is currently designated as 'coming soon.' Additionally, a collection of three-bedroom semi-detached houses was previously made available on a Shared Ownership basis in collaboration with Sage Homes. The site is part of a wider strategic plan for the area, which includes the future provision of a North-South relief road connecting the A358 (Chard Road) to the B3261 (Lyme Road), and a new 210-pupil primary school and nursery within the broader site allocation.

Property Details

The forthcoming phase will focus on 4-bedroom houses. While specific house types and floorplans for the new release are to be confirmed, previous new build homes at Mill Brook Green were designed for modern family living, typically incorporating contemporary kitchen designs with energy-efficient appliances and stylish bathrooms. All properties sold by the developer include the reassurance of a 10-year warranty. Linden Homes is an established national builder, generally rated highly on the HBF customer satisfaction survey. However, prospective buyers should note that public reviews for the developer are mixed, with some feedback indicating initial prompt snagging resolution alongside reports of quality issues such as soundproofing and water ingress on specific older properties.

Location and Connectivity

Mill Brook Green benefits from excellent transport links. Axminster railway station is approximately a two-minute drive from the development, offering direct South Western Railway services. Commuters can reach Exeter Central in approximately 35–45 minutes, and London Waterloo via the main line in as little as 2 hours 39 minutes. Major road networks, including the A358 and A35, are easily accessible, with Exeter being approximately 28 miles away by car. Local bus connectivity is provided by First Bus Service 30, which runs through Chard Road, connecting to Taunton and Chard, as well as the X51 and X53 services to coastal towns like Weymouth and Bridport.

Local Amenities and Area Characteristics

The development is positioned less than a mile from Axminster town centre, a vibrant hub of independent traders. Specific local services within a short walk include a Co-op supermarket, a Post Office, a florist, and a veterinary surgery. Axminster is known for its culinary scene, being the home of the River Cottage Canteen & Deli and hosting the monthly Axminster Eats Boutique street food market on Minster Green. For leisure, the Axe Valley Wildlife Park is a local family attraction, and the picturesque Jurassic Coast, including Charmouth Beach, is under 6 miles away (a 10-minute drive). The surrounding Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONBs) provide extensive opportunities for walks and outdoor activities.
