Description - Hillside is a unique semi-detached period home with a contemporary twist. Having been extensively re-modelled and extended over the years, the property now offers deceptively spacious, light and stylish accommodation while retaining its original Devon Cottage appeal. Outside the property continues to deliver, sitting within approximately 0.9 acres of garden and paddock which includes a detached timber-built workshop/stables, extensive parking, attached stone barn and plenty of space to enjoy the fine countryside views on offer. This is certainly a property that needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated.
Accommodation - On the ground floor is the sitting room with wood burning stove set into the chimney breast, a traditional 'cosy' space you would expect from a home of this age. However, the next room you could say is the complete opposite, and certainly has the 'wow' factor. A superb open plan kitchen/diner with a range of stylish units that include oak work surfaces, a number of integrated appliances and fitted sink with a steam tap. Breakfast bar, with drawer units either side of the chimney breast, coupled with an oil-fired Rayburn that is the centrepiece to the kitchen. This space flows effortlessly into the large living room with floor-to-ceiling wall of windows and door that overlooks the garden and surrounding countryside. A wonderful space which has been designed in a social layout, easily adaptable for both entertaining and the practicalities of family life. Also on this floor is a useful utility / rear boot room that has a range of kitchen units with work surfaces, space for white goods and WC.
The first floor has four bedrooms, three of which are large doubles. The principal bedroom is arguably the most impressive space of the house which features vaulted ceilings, a wall of floor to ceiling windows, with Juliet glass balcony enjoying some stunning countryside views. This room also includes a shower en-suite which is concealed behind a false wall with glass sliding doors. The en-suite is entirely tiled and features a pair of wall-hung wash hand basins with matching w/cs on either side, as well as a centralised frameless glass shower enclosure. This floor also includes the main bathroom, which features a white three-piece suite with a shower over the bath and tiled splashbacks.
Outside - The property is approached via a long driveway with five bar gate leading to the rear of the property which includes a raised deck, ideal for entertaining and enjoying the views, with the remainder being gravelled, allowing it to be used for additional parking. The extensive garden/paddock is just short of an acre and could be suitable for a small holding, ponies, goats, exercising dogs, the good life etc surrounding by an assortment of mature trees. Mini orchard and a modern timber-built workshop and stable.
Services - Mains electricity, water and drainage. Air source heat pump heating and solar panels for hot water.
