Property description

Eton House is an attractive family home that occupies a superb, secluded location within the popular village of Hilperton. The property was built in the 1990s and purchased in 2001 by the current owner, who says it was the location in ‘old Hilperton’ that initially attracted her. The village enjoys a rural feel, whilst also laying in close proximity to a number of well-served towns. Being only 11 miles from the beautiful city of Bath, it makes a daily rail commute to London, if required, entirely practical.The owner says: “The layout of the house allows the spacious main living areas and beautiful formal dining room to flow from one to another around a generously proportioned entrance hall; thereby making it, when all the double doors are opened, an ideal house to entertain in. Equally, when independently used, each room offers its own charm and homeliness and the large living room, though generously proportioned, is a splendidly comfortable part of the house.”“The original design of Eton House had six generously proportioned bedrooms; however one has since been transformed into a spacious office. Although quality fitted units have been installed, this could very easily be returned into a bedroom if desired.”“Eton House, approached via a drive headed by electronic gates with video entry system, is set well back from the road and enveloped by a large and attractive garden. A huge double garage provides exceptional space for two vehicles or a number of other uses. Two sets of patio doors from the formal living room create an almost seamless connection between inside and out, and a lovely decked terrace provides an ideal place for alfresco dining or simply relaxing. Apart from a pretty pond and another decked seating area at the very end of the garden, the rest of the space is laid to lawn and so the entire area is ideal for both children and adults. The garden is not only very safe, but also very peaceful. This is further enhanced by the recent completion of a new road which has diverted non-local traffic away from the village. ”“Hilperton (mentioned in the Domesday Book and voted ‘Best kept Village’ in 2012) is a great location. With a local primary school and church, it is a beautiful village that also offers a real taste of rural living; be it long walks along the banks of the canal or a gentle stroll to a cosy pub at either end of the village. The local petrol station and shop provide the immediate everyday conveniences. Equally, if one needs to travel further afield, the excellent transport links also make the rest of Wiltshire and the United Kingdom extremely accessible.”
