Description

Hill Rise is an attractive, five bedroom detached home located in the popular Chiltern village of Nettlebed. The property is screened from the top of Priest Hill and is nicely positioned via a private lane and overlooks the village recreational ground. It's pretty white-brick frontage gives period characteristics of Victorian architecture, with exposed brick, hipped roofs, sash windows and cornices.

Upon entering you are greeted by a long entrance hall, which leads to the staircase and rear access to the garden. The open-plan kitchen/dining room is an ideal entertaining space and is focused on the large central island. It includes an integrated dishwasher, sink, power source and bespoke drawers. The room is finished with a grey and navy palette and has an abundance of natural light with a double set of sash windows and French doors overlooking the garden. There is ample room for a large dining table and a great sense of outside space with a double aspect of the surrounding garden.

Two further reception rooms occupy the ground floor, offering great versatility for the family. A separate family room sits off the kitchen which could be used as a snug or a playroom. The main sitting room is incredibly cosy with a wood-burning stove and solid wooden floor. There is also a separate study, cloakroom and a utility which leads to an integral garage for storage.

On the first floor are five double bedrooms and three bathrooms. The main principal bedroom is generous and includes integrated wardrobes and an en suite bathroom. There are two other bathrooms which sit off the landing and the additional bedrooms are all well-proportioned for guests and family alike.

Outside
The property is approached via a private lane which sits off of Priest Hill and leads to the Nettlebed Recreation Ground. The paved driveway sits at the front entrance and there is parking for two vehicles. The rear garden is a particular feature. The garden is south-facing and offers a high degree of privacy with surrounding hedgerows and mature trees. A patio sits directly off all the main living areas of the house and a larger area off the kitchen which is ideal for al-fresco dining in the summer months. The rest of the garden is predominantly laid to lawn with two separate areas to enjoy.
