## Description

A handcrafted country home with open views and quiet confidence

Hillside offers a rare balance of quality, setting and lifestyle. Positioned along Gawsworth Road, with far-reaching views and open countryside on three sides, it provides a sense of calm from the moment you arrive.

The house has been designed with comfort and longevity in mind. Materials are natural and robust, the layout flows with ease, and every space has been finished to the highest standard. There’s a strong connection between indoors and out, with considered glazing that frames the landscape and brings natural light into the heart of the home.

At just over a third of an acre, the plot has been thoughtfully landscaped to create distinct areas for relaxing, growing and entertaining. Inside, six bedrooms and a choice of reception spaces offer flexibility for family life, hosting or working from home.

It’s a substantial home, carefully built and well cared for - ready for its next chapter.

The current owners have completed a series of works across the property, including bespoke solid oak internal doors throughout, extensive landscaping, various extensions, new kitchen, full redecoration, updated heating, and modern aluminium glazing across key living spaces. 

EPC rating: C. Tenure: Freehold,
