West Hill House is an imposing, period property with a wealth of detail, character and charm. It was designed and built in 1926 in the Arts and Crafts style by the well-known local architect, A.C Burlingham. It is set in the private and manicured wide verged section of Abbotswood and lies within the Abbotswood Conservation Area.
The property benefits from stunning original features such as the original staircase and attractive brick mullion windows. Two of the
striking features of this beautiful home are the flexibility it offers in terms of the use of the space and that it is airy and filled inside with natural light.
This is exemplified by one of the real features of the property which is the large open plan kitchen/breakfast/dining room which benefits from a large roof lantern. Double French doors open from this area onto both the drawing room and the dining/family room, which enables one to create a large, flexible space for indoor entertaining.
The drawing room and the family/dining room have modern, beautiful limestone fireplaces and both have working chimney stacks, which provide the flexibility to have real or flame effect fireplaces. The double French doors also lead from the kitchen/breakfast room onto a large, recently added raised sun terrace overlooking the rear garden. The sun terrace is enveloped by a beautiful all-glass balustrade and this area is a perfect outdoor space for relaxation, al fresco dining and for outdoor entertainment which can accommodate a substantial number of people.
There is a very useful option to create a self-contained annex within the house benefiting from its own entrance and consisting of a separate side entrance porch, one bedroom, one double aspect reception room and its own en suite shower room. Alternatively, the reception room in this part of the house can be used as a study, a music room or a dining room.
The first floor is very generously proportioned throughout. It has a double aspect master bedroom suite and, four good double bedrooms, three of which are double aspect. Four of the bedrooms have spacious fitted wardrobes and three bedrooms have built in desks. There is a family bathroom, and like all the bathrooms, these are modern and have Italian marble, Hans Gröhe taps and Villeroy & Boch sanitary fittings.
Further features of the house are that it has a Megaflow hot water system which provides instant hot water at a good and consistent pressure and the majority of the windows are high quality windows made by the respected Heritage Window Company.
There is the potential to extend the area above the kitchen/breakfast room area to create a large dressing area and en-suite bathroom to one of the large bedrooms. A further useful feature is a large undercroft area with lockable doors under the length of the rear raised sun terrace. This provides a handy storage area for bicycles, sports equipment, garden furniture etc.
West Hill House is set in about 0.4 acres and being located at the top of the hill, provides a good degree of privacy and far reaching views towards the Cathedral and the surroundings. It is accessed through a five bar gate leading onto the large paved driveway as well as a single integral garage. The generously sized front garden consists of a lawned area with trees and shrubs and is bordered by flowering plants. The large raised sun terrace leads via steps to the large rear garden which consists of two tiered flat lawned areas bordered by mature trees and tall, manicured hedge. This creates a great sense of privacy.
This property is being offered chain free.
