Pierhill House is a highly attractive two storey house built of stone and brick with a white render finish, sash and case painted windows, under a slate roof. Pierhill House has instant appeal before even entering the house, from the private drive leading to a gravel driveway with ample parking, well maintained and beautifully stocked mature gardens, grazing land, several useful outbuildings and stables to the charming ‘secret’ oasis of private garden by the stream.

Pierhill House comprises a bright welcoming hallway which gives access to the large dining kitchen with cream Aga, separate oven and hob, Belfast sink, two attractive free-standing dressers and co-ordinating cream floor units including a carved wooden central island. There is access to the garden from the kitchen and the rear hallway leading on to the large utility room with washing machine and tumble drier. In addition, there is a door from the kitchen into the large dining room which can accommodate dining for 12 plus people, a decorative fireplace and wall lights. The dual aspect sitting room has a large picture window with window seat below from which to appreciate the wonderful countryside views, a wood burning stove set-in brick with wooden surround. Also from the hall is the living room with a wood burning stove set-in brick and wooden surround and bespoke hearth surround, dual aspect windows and window seat. There are two w.c.’s/cloakrooms on the ground floor. Stairs rise from the hall to the five generously sized bedrooms, four of which have built in wardrobes/storage. Two bedrooms benefit from wash hand basins set in vanity units. The family bathroom has a bath with shower over, shower cubicle, wash hand basin, w.c. and heated towel rail and the shower room complete with dual head shower, w.c. and wash hand basin complete the first floor accommodation along with the plentiful cupboard space.
