Set within the prestigious The Gates Estate in Hilton, this exceptional owner-built residence is a home of rare character, beautifully positioned to embrace the tranquillity and natural beauty of its surroundings. Framed by established gardens, mature greenery and captivating views across the estate and private dam, the property offers an exceptional sense of privacy and space. From its distinctive red-brick and stone architecture to the thoughtful landscaping, every aspect of the home has been designed to sit naturally within the Midlands setting.

Inside, the home unfolds with an effortless sense of warmth, space and individuality. Four beautifully appointed bedrooms provide generous accommodation, with the main suite offering a peaceful retreat complete with a Juliet balcony, walk-in dressing room and luxurious bathroom filled with natural light. Multiple living areas cater equally well to relaxed family living and sophisticated entertaining, including a formal lounge with fireplace, comfortable TV lounge, bespoke wine cellar and dedicated home office. Hardwood floors, considered lighting and carefully selected finishes add a sense of quality and character throughout.

At the centre of the home is an impressive gourmet kitchen, designed as much for gathering as it is for cooking, with quality appliances, generous preparation space and a central breakfast island. Stacking doors open the principal living areas onto covered patios and terraces, creating a seamless connection between the home and the garden while drawing your attention towards the peaceful dam and surrounding landscape. It is a setting that invites long lunches, relaxed afternoons and memorable evenings with family and friends.

Adding further versatility is a separate loft above the garages, currently generating an income but equally suited to use as guest accommodation, a studio or private retreat. Well-appointed domestic accommodation provides an additional practical option for live-in assistance. Situated within one of Hilton’s most sought-after estates, with Hilton College, St Anne’s and the wider Midlands lifestyle on your doorstep, this is a home that combines privacy, character and modern country living in an exceptional setting.
