4 bed detached house for sale

Hill, Berkeley, Gloucestershire GL13

Hill View Farm is believed to date from 1860 and is Grade II listed. The present owner purchased the property in 2010 and have since redecorated the interior including laying Boniti wood floors, upgraded the kitchen, family bathroom, and en suite shower room. There are many appropriate features to the period retained including flagstone floors, archways, dado rails, window shutters, and the original dresser and bread oven in the family room.

The rooms are well proportioned and light, and the atmosphere is warm and friendly. The interior is very well presented and there are lovely views over its garden countryside, especially from the first floor. The sitting and dining room each have a log burning stove and the family room is fitted with period style range and original bread oven. The breakfast kitchen is well fitted with units, a large central island with breakfast bar, and integral appliances include an lpg range cooker, dishwasher, microwave, large cabinet fridge/freezer and sink with boiling water tap.

On the first floor, the four double bedrooms have wonderful views. The en suite shower room in the principal bedroom and family bathroom are well fitted in a contemporary style.

Outside
Hill View Farm is approached over a sweeping drive leading to a parking area beside the house providing parking for a number of cars. The front and rear gardens are a delight and follow an English country garden theme. At the front, a central pathway with lawn on either side leads to the front door. There are inset circular beds, well stocked borders and box hedgerow. Further level lawn to the south has attractively planted borders with a variety of plants and shrubs, and a large paved area with pergola, ideal for entertaining, has wonderful views. A wrought iron archway clad with a mature climbing rose and clematis leads into a small mixed orchard with pear, plum, apple and cider pear tree.

There is a part walled kitchen garden screened by dense hedgerow and a further shaped rose bed. A brick-built home office/gym converted from an old farm building has a Belfast sink unit, terracotta tiled floor, stable door, and is accessed either from the garden or from a paved area at the rear of the house. Beside is a timber garden store, and a wood store is located in the parking area.

The Paddock
The paddock is approached from the entrance drive through a five-bar farm gate and gives access across the paddock to a detached timber stable and tack room block. Adjacent, is a substantial purpose-built timber barn with two pairs of solid steel doors, and an open side Dutch barn. The paddock amounts to approximately one acre.

Hill View Farm is situated towards the end of an attractive no through lane, adjoining farmland, surrounded by unspoilt and undulating countryside with easy access to bridleways and country walks. The village lies between the market towns of Thornbury
and Berkeley.
