General Comments - Old Hill House is a very attractive period "cottage" that is full of character with rendered stone elevations, traditional small paned windows and natural slate roof. It is partly attached to another property and is tucked away on the edge of Grampound village enjoying a semi-rural ambience and is almost hidden from view by passers by. It is part of the Conservation Area of the village but Old Hill House is not believed to be "Listed".
All windows are double glazed and the traditional casement windows to the front elevation have been hand crafted in hardwood and are a true replica of the originals. Beamed ceilings, slate flagged floors and deep fireplace recesses are some of the original features and modern additions include quality kitchen and bathrooms, gas central heating and recent plumbing and electrics. At the rear is a stunning high vaulted living room that has been added in recent years and this is an absolute triumph. It enjoys fabulous garden views and has full height windows that floods the room with natural light. The accommodation includes a well proportioned sitting room, spacious dining room, fitted kitchen opening into the vaulted living room, study, utility and shower/cloakroom. The first floor has a spacious landing, four bedrooms, shower room and bathroom.
Whilst the property is attached it is surprisingly private with mature boundaries that provide protection from neighbours yet the whole property enjoys a sunny aspect.
The large gardens are located at the rear. They are a sheer delight and well stocked with many interesting shrubs and plants providing interest and year round colour. The rear terrace provides plenty of sitting out space and is positioned to enjoy the afternoon and evening sun. There is parking for three cars. An internal viewing is essential.
