Occupying an excellent position, with far-reaching views over the Fynn Valley, in the popular village of Little Bealings, Pipits Hill is a superb contemporary family home with delightful gardens, an impressive outdoor kitchen and useful outbuildings.
The house has been maintained and extended by our clients to an exceptional standard, to create a comfortable family home, comprising wonderfully proportioned and light-filled accommodation, presented in immaculate condition.
The front door opens into a useful porch which leads through to the generous reception hall, which opens out to an inner hall and through to a games room, cloakroom, and a ground floor bedroom with an en suite. From the reception hall, double doors lead to the sitting room, bi-folding doors to the kitchen, and stairs up to the first floor bedroom accommodation.
The impressive and particularly spacious, triple aspect kitchen/snug/dining room is flooded with natural light and enjoys amazing views over the garden and valley. Bi-folding doors open out to the terrace and garden.
