5 bedroom detached house for sale

Hillview House is a most impressive detached five bedroom Victorian residence offering versatile accommodation.

Built in the late 19th Century, Hillview House is a most impressive detached Victorian residence offering versatile accommodation. The property has been extended over the years with two ground floor additions that provide exceptional accommodation with one of the extensions ideal for a relative in the form of an annexe, alternatively for an older child/young adult. The second of the extensions provides a delightful bedroom suite which can either be used as the master bedroom or would also suit a dependent relative with mobility limitations. Should an annexe not be required, there is ample space for a home office but at present the potential annexe space includes a family cinema room which adds to the appeal.

The ground floor is very much focused around the particularly large kithen/dining/family room, very much the hub of the home.

On the first floor are three good sized double bedrooms, all supported by a large bathroom, whilst from the landing a folding timber ladder accesses the converted roof space which is currently used for an office/study space and also features a useful en suite shower room with WC.
