Merlin Lane, Hilton, DE65

A BEAUTIFULLY PRESENTED FOUR-BEDROOM FAMILY HOME THAT PERFECTLY COMBINES CONTEMPORARY STYLE WITH PRACTICAL LIVING. BOASTING IMPRESSIVE OPEN-PLAN SPACES, A STUNNING LANDSCAPED GARDEN AND POSITIONED WITHIN AN EXCLUSIVE DEVELOPMENT, THIS IS A HOME DESIGNED TO BE ENJOYED BOTH INSIDE AND OUT.

Our Agent Jodie Says:

“From the moment I stepped through the door, I could see this is a home that has been thoughtfully designed with modern family living in mind. Set within an exclusive development, it offers a fantastic balance of style, practicality and generous living space.

One of the things I particularly like about this home is how well the ground floor flows. The lounge feels warm and welcoming, centred around a striking media wall with a contemporary flame-effect fire that creates a cosy focal point and the perfect place to unwind. I also love the patio doors, which provide direct access to the garden and allow plenty of natural light to flood the room.

For me, the real highlight is the impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family area. This is undoubtedly the heart of the home, featuring high-quality fittings, ample space for busy family life and bi-fold doors that seamlessly connect the indoors with the garden. Whether you're entertaining friends and family or simply enjoying everyday life, this space works beautifully. The ground floor is further enhanced by a useful utility room and a convenient downstairs WC.

Upstairs, the main bedroom provides a peaceful retreat, complete with fitted wardrobes and a stylish en-suite shower room. The remaining three bedrooms are all well-proportioned and offer excellent flexibility for growing families, guests or those needing a dedicated home office, with one bedroom also benefiting from fitted wardrobes. The family bathroom is modern and well-appointed, featuring a shower over the bath to create a practical yet attractive space.

Outside, I was particularly impressed by the recently landscaped rear garden, which has been designed to be both attractive and easy to maintain. It's a fantastic space for children to play, relaxing with family, or hosting summer get-togethers. The pergola, bar and hot tub create a wonderful entertaining area and make it easy to imagine enjoying long summer evenings with friends or unwinding after a busy day. Completing the property is a garage and driveway parking, adding further convenience to what I believe is an exceptional family home.”

Our Sellers Thoughts:

“We have loved living in this home, especially the two separate living spaces which give plenty of room to relax while still being able to cook and entertain family and friends. The bifold doors open onto a spacious garden that has recently been transformed with porcelain tiles, a jacuzzi, and a bar area, making it perfect for socialising and family gatherings.

All four bedrooms are generously sized, providing plenty of space for growing families and children’s sleepovers. We have also been fortunate to have lovely neighbours, creating a friendly and welcoming community. As the road is only used for access to the houses and is not a through route, it remains quiet with very little traffic, making it ideal for families.”

The Area:

The village of Hilton is a fantastic family village and has something for everyone in the family.
