Hill House is an exceptional period residence situated in the heart of Stoke Gabriel, a quintessentially English village situated on the River Dart, surrounded by the green rolling hills of the South Hams.

Noted as a home of great historical importance, an illustrious list of guests has been welcomed to stay at Hill House, including King William III, William of Orange. Today Hill House has been meticulously and sympathetically renovated to create an exceptionally bright, contemporary and stylish home, whilst retaining many of the period features which bring it such timeless allure.

Approaching along the gated Driveway, lined with Italian cypress and topiary, there is an immediate sense of privacy and exclusivity; the gravel drive leads you to the elegance of the front entrance; looking up, the exterior of the house is defined by the formality of perfectly manicured window boxes which lead your eye around the house and to the Italianate gardens beyond. The elegantly panelled front door is framed by bay trees and carriage lamps.

Upon entering the Hallway, you immediately discover a bright, modern and spacious interior. The elegant wall panelling, a nod to the heritage of the building, leads you to the inner Hallway beyond; muted tones of Little Greene wall colours and Pale Oak Amtico flooring guide you seamlessly throughout the ground floor, creating a contemporary feel exuding a sense of space, calm and relaxation.

Beyond the Hallway discover the Atrium, a light-filled, calm and versatile space. Currently used as a relaxation and reading area; alternatively, it could become a private dining or play area.

The stylish and open-plan Kitchen and Dining area is definitely the heart of the home; a place for friends and family to come together. The large skylight bathes the Kitchen in light whatever the time of year. Comfort and Period elegance are created by the timeless Shaker style Kitchen in a soft linen tone, with quartz worktops, for professional functionality. The large central island with a breakfast bar brings you everything required for year-round entertaining, ensuring friends and family are always welcome. The Kitchen incorporates everything required for modern comfort; this includes Siemens built-in appliances: double oven and microwave, large 5-ring induction hob and extractor fan, as well as dishwasher and fridge freezer.

With its high ceilings and elegant cornicing, the spacious and bright Dining room greets you with soothing neutral tones, adding to the leisurely and relaxing enjoyment of meal times, whomever you may be sharing them with. Elegant glazed doors lead out to the welcoming Patio and garden for a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle; double doors linking the Dining Room to the Living Room, enhance the flow of the space further still, making it ideal for entertaining.

The Living Room captivates with its panelled feature wall that highlights a stunning stone open fireplace. The impressive bay window floods the room with natural light and offers picturesque views over the enchanting Garden.

A bright and spacious Landing leads into the sumptuous main Bedroom Suite; an elegant sanctuary of calm, accented by the warm neutral tones, panelled wall and high ceilings. The impressive large bay window allows natural light to flood the room, whilst providing panoramic views across the garden and village to the rolling hills beyond. Adjacent to the Bedroom, a refined Dressing Room provides generous space and storage, ensuring your wardrobe is organised with finesse. Completing this exquisite suite is a contemporary Shower Room characterised by sleek lines and accent lighting that evokes a sense of serene luxury.

The second-Bedroom suite offers comfort and space rarely imagined. A warm and cocooning atmosphere bathed in soft light. The airy Dressing Room leads into the spacious and uplifting Ensuite with its oversized shower enabling moments to unwind or revitalise, as the mood takes you.

The third Bedroom is a large bright and uplifting room bathed in warm sunlight through the double French doors bringing views over the garden and the village beyond. Step through the doors onto the extensive balcony, with plenty of room for sitting with a morning coffee or alfresco drinks to watch the captivating evening sunsets. This is a most versatile room and is currently used as a comfortable Family Room, embracing the benefits of the outdoor Balcony space.

A private staircase leads to the upper floor providing a modern-style Bedroom with far reaching views of the River Dart and beyond to the lush Devon countryside. A unique and stylish double Bedroom with access to an exceptionally large walk-in area for storage and with great future potential to utilise further.

The Garden is a captivating oasis, artfully designed to make the most of every vista. It features inviting pockets of interest, including a delightful kitchen garden. Traditional stone walls provide a timeless charm, while mature trees rise majestically, offering soothing shade. The stunning decking arranged in a contemporary herringbone pattern, plays with light across its surface, introducing a vibrant visual dimension. Picture yourself beneath the graceful Japanese paper bark maple tree, basking in the dappled sunlight that filters through its leaves, or selecting one of the thoughtfully placed seating areas that provide an ideal view of this wonderfully imaginative retreat.
