Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • Five bedroom detached house located within the Blackhall Primary School catchment, occupying a generous plot
  • Living room and conservatory connected via double doors
  • Airy breakfasting kitchen
  • Large dining room with a fireplace
  • Beautifully maintained front and back garden
  • Detached double garage with electric doors and a multi-car driveway
Occupying a generous plot on Hillhouse Road in Blackhall, this traditional detached house (which hasn't been on the market since 1973) offers three reception areas, a breakfasting kitchen, five bedrooms, a shower room, a bathroom, and a WC, plus vast gardens, a detached double garage and a private driveway.

You are welcomed into the home by an entrance vestibule and hallway, with both areas accompanied by built-in storage.

The living room and conservatory are connected via double doors, opening to create a sociable open space or closing for privacy. The living room is decorated in pastel tones, carpeted for comfort, and offers plenty of space for a choice of lounge furniture layouts. In the adjoining conservatory, versatile space is provided to be used in a number of ways to suit the new owner, including a second sitting area, a family/TV room, or a children’s play room, whilst French doors open onto the rear garden, extending the space outdoors during the warmer months.

The airy kitchen accommodates space for a small dining/breakfasting area, perfect for morning coffee, informal meals on busy weeknights, and relaxed weekend breakfasts. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wood-styled wall and base cabinets, framed by workspace and splashback tiling, whilst a central island offers additional cabinetry and a solid wood worktop. It is further supplemented by a walk-in larder/pantry and a separate utility room with a clothes pulley.

The dining room provides ample room for at least an eight-seater table and additional furniture, presenting the perfect space for dinner parties, sociable gatherings with guests, and sit-down family meals. The room is neutrally decorated and fitted with Junckers wood flooring, whilst a fireplace (with a working open fire and flanked by built-in storage) adds a touch of character to the space.

The home’s five bedrooms are arranged over the ground and first floors and consist of four doubles and a single. The bedrooms all offer plenty of space for furniture and have their own unique styling, and the single offers alternative use as a home office – ideal for those requiring a quiet space to work or study from home.

The house offers a shower room, a separate bathroom, and a WC. The shower room and bathroom are both on the ground floor, with the former comprising a large shower enclosure, a WC-suite, and a towel radiator, and the latter including a bath with an overhead shower, a basin and WC set into storage, and a mirrored, wall-mounted vanity cabinet.

Externally, the house is perfectly complemented by beautifully maintained, well-stocked productive gardens. The front garden features a lawn with a border of leafy trees and shrubbery, whilst the enviably south-facing rear garden is particularly generous, perfect for family life, children, and pets. The rear garden includes a patio seating area, a vast, manicured lawn, a wealth of mature trees (including Victoria plum, apple (eating and cooking), quince, and pear trees), an allotment area with summer and autumn raspberries, redcurrants, rhubarb, and root veg, shrubs, hedges, and colourful planting. Excellent private parking is provided by a detached double garage with electric doors and a multi-car driveway.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on May 5, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on May 5, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
