Read the full agent description
Tucked away on the cusp of Abbotsham and Kenwith, Hill Cottage is an individual 4/5 bedroom detached home set within delightful gardens and enjoying countryside views to the rear and one side.
The property although requiring modernisation, offers well-proportioned accommodation including three comfortable and connecting reception rooms, creating versatile spaces for entertaining, dining, and relaxation.
The fitted kitchen, complete with a Rayburn, is complemented by an adjoining utility and cloakroom. A bright conservatory extends from the kitchen, providing the perfect spot for a morning coffee while overlooking the gardens and surrounding fields.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, a family bathroom and a study area/occasional fifth bedroom. Two of the bedrooms enjoy their own en-suite facilities, both with garden outlooks, while the principal bedroom is further enhanced by a private balcony with countryside views.
The gardens are enclosed by mature hedgerows, offering privacy and a peaceful setting. To the front, sweeping lawns are dotted with established trees, shrubs, and bushes, while the rear features a paved patio and a timber summer house enjoying views over open farmland.
Hill Cottage is approached via a wooden five-bar gate opening onto a gravelled driveway that leads to an oversized garage (174 x 149 / 5.28m x 4.50m) with an electric up and over door. A spacious loft above the garage, accessed via a foldaway ladder, provides excellent storage and offers potential for conversion (subject to consents).
In all, Hill Cottage combines character, space, and versatility in a peaceful edge of village setting. With its pleasant gardens, countryside outlooks, and potential for further enhancement, it offers a wonderful opportunity for those seeking a comfortable family home with a true sense of charm.
