Owners Remarks: We fell in love with Hillside and its ancient woodland when we first saw it thirty years ago, and we have been very happy here ever since. At that time my wife was working in Inner London, and, returning home in the evening from work, she found it the perfect location to de-stress, so tranquil and close to nature. I am a musician and actor, and this was ideal for practising and rehearsing with colleagues, disturbing nobody! We had two teenage sons when we moved in. Now we are relocating to be closer to the extended family in Somerset. There will be such happy memories of the changing seasons and wonderful garden parties. Wherever you are in the house, you look out at a peaceful rural scene.
