Full Description: <p>Hill House is an effortlessly comfortable circa 2450 sq. ft family home, built over three floors with a charming “inside / outside” flow coupled with gated off-street parking and a generous circa 440 sq ft double garage. </p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">Over the past few years, the current owners have significantly refurbished, refreshed and modernised the house, commissioning the highly regarded “Nest Design & Build” team to bring the house up to today's specification and condition compared to when it was acquired a few years earlier. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">Day to day, the house can be accessed easily from both the front and rear; with short walks into Clifton village or Leigh Woods easiest from the front door, via the front garden and onto Bridge Road; whilst to the rear is accessible parking for a number of cars from Burwalls Road and a short flight of steps up to the ground floor entrance hall. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">From the ground floor there is access into a wide and welcoming entrance hall, with plenty of space for coats and boots; with a side door leading into a fully fitted utility room providing bespoke storage and plenty of room for day-to-day laundry needs. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">The open plan kitchen & dining room is superb; full-width and spilling out via French doors into the south-facing garden beyond. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">The kitchen itself is exquisite; newly installed by the current owners with a generous array of wooden floor and wall-mounted storage cupboards, topped with an expanse of quartz worktops and an immensely sociable peninsular breakfast island seamlessly linking the kitchen to the dining area; with its stylish banquette seating and space for a generous dining table and additional chairs. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">To the front is a useful fourth bedroom / study served by a separate newly installed shower room.</span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">Much of the lower ground floor (though not all) benefits from electric underfloor heating, supported by traditional style modern heat-efficient radiators (replaced throughout the house) running off the new gas boiler and controlled via a HIVE app. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">Upstairs, the hall floor is reached via the central staircase running to all three floors; itself the subject of a makeover with stripped wooden treads and a new runner, new spindles and an oak handrail. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">It can also be accessed via the front door, into a useful entrance lobby with further storage for coats and boots, covered by a storm porch from the front. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">To the rear is a gorgeous full-width sitting room, with a stunning architectural coffered ceiling (installed by the current owners) and glazed French doors leading out onto the south-facing covered balcony. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">The room enjoys a feature wood and coal effect gas fireplace with newly installed hard-wood flooring (running throughout much of the hall floor) as well as a light filled triple aspect catching the morning, midday and afternoon sun. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">To the west side of the house is a useful family room with a dual aspect and recessed bay window whilst to the front is a useful home office / study space overlooking the front garden. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">Upstairs, across the top floor, lie three double bedrooms and a light-filled landing space, with a Velux window providing light and additional ventilation for warmer summer days. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">The principal bedroom-suit occupies the entire rear half of the floorspace; divided between a lovely light doble bedroom, fitted dressing room and a beautifully appointed en-suite bath & shower room accessed via discreet pocket doors. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">The bedroom and bathroom both benefit from double height ceilings, with electric Velux windows in the dressing room and bathroom for additional natural light and ventilation.</span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">A bespoke staircase leads up from the bedroom to a useful mezzanine floor; currently used a second dressing room but equally versatile as a second home office / study. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">To the front lie two further double bedrooms; each dual aspect with a series of casement windows allowing plenty of natural light, served by a beautifully appointed family shower room.</span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">Outside: </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">The current owners have sensitively relandscaped both the front and rear gardens, as well as repaving the block driveway. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">Low maintenance and following the sun from morning through till night both present private and sociable spaces to spill out into from three sides of the house.</span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">To the rear, the garden is easily accessible from the kitchen and provides plenty of space for casual dining and seating; with a fully fitted outdoor kitchen comprising a recessed gas BBQ and a separate gas hob, integrated drinks fridge and wash basin, undercounter storage and plenty of prep space. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">The space for a dining table sits under a wooden arbour with plenty of natural shade, and lots of room adjacent to this for comfy chairs, outdoor sofas and a coffee table. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">A gated side path leads from the rear to the front, with the sunken front garden immensely private to the road and further space for evening drinks as the sun sets in the west. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:0.875rem;letter-spacing:0.01em">The gated rear drive provides parking for at least three cars on the drive, as well as a generous circa 440 sq. ft double garage with electric up & over doors, and there is an accessible EV charge point installed on the side of the driveway. </span></p>
