Outside

Surrounded on three sides by various gardens and courtyards, the grounds of Hillcrest provide a private oasis no matter the time of day. Consisting of a well thought out and beautifully stocked front garden and covered patio, it bends around the house to the side garden which features a pergola and pathways, planted up with mature shrubs, roses and other trailing plants and flowers.



This leads onto the covered pathway linking the house to the potting shed and garage with a path leading up to the parking area.



To the rear of the property and accessed via the sun room is a further enclosed courtyard with a number of planted borders and those views to the fells.



Hillcrest is provided with one off-road parking space and the garage, but further on road parking could be used directly outside on the lane.

Services

Mains electric and water. Oil central heating. Calor gas fire to sitting room. Septic tank drainage shared with your neighbour, with the tank located in the adjacent field.

Thoughts from the Agent

Hillcrest provides a wonderful opportunity for someone to really put their stamp on this period property and it would definitely suit anyone who is a keen gardener or a classic car enthusiast.



For those looking to re-configure the space a little, it would certainly be worth looking at the potting shed and fuel store to either incorporate into the house as a utility room, freeing up the rear hallway to be used for other purposes.



Taking it a little further, there is scope to extend (with the relevant permissions of course) the property out into the side garden without impacting the gardens to much, providing additional space for the kitchen, bedroom three and depending on the scale of the extension, another bedroom with either an en-suite or with dual aspect windows to take in those views to the front and rear.
