Hilltop is believed to date back to 1758 and once belonged to the Popham Estate before being sold off in 1917. It was extended in the 1980's and again in the 1990's before the present owners purchased the property in 1996. There is scope to further extend, subject to any necessary planning consent.

The position of Hilltop is superb. It is situated towards the top of Cocker's Hill, adjoining farmland, and has extensive views over unspoilt undulating countryside. It is about .75 mile south west of the centre of the village.

The charming interior has been well maintained and all rooms have lovely extensive views. The sitting room is a particularly atmospheric and well proportioned room with a stone fireplace and chimney breast fitted with a log burning stove, beamed ceiling and window seats. The breakfast kitchen is well fitted, and integrated appliances include a fridge, freezer, and a Belling range cooker. The dining room overlooks and opens onto the garden. On the first floor, a split staircase leads to two bedrooms at the front of the cottage and the family bath/shower room, two bedrooms, one with en suite w.c. at the rear of the cottage. The views are superb.

Hilltop is approached through double wrought iron gates giving access to a gravel parking area in front of a detached stone and tile garage with adjoining carport and log store. Behind is a timber stable. The drive continues from the gravel area to the side of cottage, providing additional parking.

The peaceful gardens have been most attractively planned and take complete advantage of the stunning and unspoilt views. The front elevation is adorned with a Wisteria and the front lawn has beds planted with shrubs, roses, and lavender.

There is a large expanse of lawn with deep shaped beds and borders planted with a variety of flowering plants and ornamental shrubs. There are stone steps, stone paved areas for entertaining and an ornamental pond with stone paved surround. A variety of trees intersperse the lawn and include a Smoke tree, Willow, Beech, Spruce and Eucalyptus. Fruit trees include Cherry, Cider apple, Russet eating apple and a Bramley. At the bottom of the garden, a gate leads into a small wild meadow or paddock surrounded by mature hedgerow.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on December 23, 2021

    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 December 23, 2021

    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

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on August 20, 2019 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
