AN EXTREMELY WELL APPOINTED LIFESTYLE PROPERTY LYING ON THE EDGE OF THIS SOUGHT AFTER VILLAGE

Hill House is an individual architect designed property enjoying an elevated position on the edge of this popular village and bordering farmland.

It is very evident that great attention to detail went into its design and execution. The finished result is a real lifestyle property presented in excellent condition, both internally and externally. The rear landscaped garden and paved courtyard offer privacy and provide the ideal environment to entertain and unwind. A viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate all on offer.

The oak front door with glazed side lights opens into the reception hall which flows through to the main open plan living area with views over the garden and beyond. All of the ground floor accommodation radiates out from the tiled hall and an oak staircase gently rises to first floor galleried landing.

The accommodation has a very “Grand Design” feel with the principal living area being open plan and ideally suited to modern living. The dining area gives way to the vaulted oak framed Julius Bahn kitchen area with bespoke fitted units and matching central island with white granite work surface, inset sink and to the side, is an oak butcher’s block. Cooking facilities are provided by the three ovened AIMS controlled gas Aga with extractor hood above. To the side is a recess to house fridge/freezer and the integral Miele dishwasher conveniently sits next to the enamel double bowl butler sink with one having an InSinkErator.

In the corner of the kitchen a door opens into large walk-in fitted pantry with storage cupboards, work surface and shelving and there is an additional recess for housing a further full height fridge/freezer.

The utility/boot room is also fully equipped with integrated fitted units along and plumbing for washing machine. A full height cupboard houses the gas fired boiler, underfloor heating manifolds and a stable door leads out to the covered glazed Verandah to the side of the property. Adjoining is the downstairs cloakroom.

Running along the front of the property are three bedrooms one of which benefits from en suite facilities and the other two served by fully tiled shower room. Two bedrooms are currently used as home offices.

FIRST FLOOR

The oak staircase gently rises up to galleried landing with a run of fitted wardrobes and offering access to the well-proportioned principal bedroom which also benefits from built-in wardrobes along one wall. At the opposite end of the landing is the underfloor heated limestone floored shower room and the airing cupboard houses a vented pressurised water cylinder.

Lying at the far end is the seating area within the vaulted Julius Bahn oak framed structure overlooking the landscaped rear garden with extensive glazing allowing natural light to flood in. Bi-fold doors open onto the garden, paved outdoor dining courtyard and seating loggia.

A pair of sliding doors reveal the oak floored sitting room with recessed fireplace housing wood burner making it a very cosy room in the winter. This room enjoys both views and direct access onto the seating Loggia and paved courtyard.

GARDEN AND GROUNDS

Five bar electric field gate with separate pedestrian gate opens onto the paved drive, providing generous parking to the front of the property and access to the Julius Bahn Dutch Barn currently used as a two bay carport with one bay having storage above.

On the eastern side of the house, double gates open to reveal a further drive running under a glazed oak framed Verandah and continuing through to the rear garden. The Verandah enjoys direct access into the Utility/Boot room and includes an outdoor dog shower.

The partly walled rear garden and paved courtyard entertaining area are a pure delight and both offer the perfect environment to unwind and entertain. A seating loggia overlooks the courtyard with the lawn beyond gently rising to the far boundary edged on one side by mature herbaceous borders and raised terrace seating area. Close to the rear of the property is a sunken gravelled herb garden with raised beds.

At the far end of the garden sits the timber studio offering the ideal environment for creative home working with bifold doors allowing natural light to flood in. The studio enjoys an attractive rural outlook.
