Hill Farm is a charming, detached period property situated in an elevated position on the outskirts of the village with views to the rear over fields. Dating back to 1731, it was originally part of the Dashwood family estate before being sold to Merton College as a small holding with approximately 60 acres.
The property has been under the same ownership for over 25 years, with great care taken to maintain its character and charm. The front door opens into a spacious entrance hall featuring parquet flooring, a winding principal staircase to the upper floor, exposed beams, a coats cupboard, and a cloakroom. The impressive drawing room boasts triple aspect views, a substantial inglenook fireplace with a log-burning stove, and French doors leading to the rear garden. The double aspect dining room has flagstone flooring and an inglenook fireplace with a bread oven. The kitchen/breakfast room leads from the dining room and is equipped with a gas-fired Aga in addition to a range of farmhouse style units with wooden work surfaces. A secondary staircase leads to the first floor from the kitchen. The large utility room houses the boiler, a walk-in larder, a Belfast sink, and a back door to the garden.
The first floor comprises five double bedrooms, three of which have built in wardrobes/cupboards, a bathroom, and a shower room.
