Occupying a private, edge-of-village position on Butts Batch, Hillfield is a spacious five-bedroom detached family home that enjoys far-reaching countryside views towards the Mendip Hills. The house is light and airy throughout, with a superb 31' dual-aspect kitchen/dining/family room and a south-facing sitting room with two pairs of patio doors and a wood-burning stove — ideal for family life and entertaining. Gardens wrap around three aspects, offering privacy, a sunny lawn and distinct patio areas for outdoor dining and play.
Practical family features include a large double garage with loft storage and generous off-street parking on a gravel drive (shared with one other house), a useful boot/utility area, and a substantial home office that could serve as a dining room, playroom or sixth bedroom. Recent replacement double glazing improves thermal performance and comfort, and the property benefits from mains gas central heating plus excellent broadband and mobile signals — useful for remote working and family connectivity.
Notable practical points: the house was constructed before 1900 in sandstone/limestone and some external walls are assumed uninsulated, so buyers should consider potential upgrade costs for wall insulation. Flood risk is assessed as medium in this area and council tax is high; tenure is currently unspecified. The double garage has been used as a gym/playroom and offers potential for alternative uses, subject to necessary planning and building consents.
Hillfield will suit buyers seeking a well-appointed family home in a sought-after village location with outstanding outdoor space and views. It balances ready-to-enjoy accommodation with sensible future-improvement potential for energy efficiency or garage conversion, making it appealing for growing families who value privacy, schools nearby and easy commuting to Bristol or the coast.
