Positioned in the sought-after Somerset village of Norton St Philip—famed for The George Inn, one of Britain’s oldest taverns, with origins dating back to 1397—this beautifully presented detached home offers the ideal balance of modern comfort and country charm. Built around 2014 by Shepperton Homes, the property sits within its own well-maintained enclosed wrap-around gardens and benefits from a garage and parking for two vehicles.
Arranged over two well-designed floors, the home features three bright upstairs double bedrooms—one with an en suite, another with a walk-in wardrobe—alongside a stylish family bathroom. The ground floor offers a flexible and sociable layout, ideal for modern living. A family room or potential bedroom four and sitting room flow through to an open-plan kitchen/dining space, with French doors opening onto the patio—perfect for entertaining or enjoying the garden. The owners describe the property as ‘homely, light and sunny’, and it’s easy to see why. They reflect, ‘we initially thought we’d settle in Bath, but when we found Hill View it offered everything we wanted—charm, privacy, and ease of living. We just knew it was for us.’ Ten years on, the property remains in excellent decorative order, with thoughtful improvements to the outside space including creating a private suntrap area. Set amidst stunning countryside in a thriving village, the owners say, ‘we’ve especially enjoyed living in Norton St Philip – the local pubs, Pilates and dance classes in the village hall and monthly film nights. Local tennis clubs have been a real bonus too, along with easy access to Bath, Frome, surrounding picturesque villages, and beautiful rural walks.’
‘The ground floor has a circular flow, which makes moving between rooms effortless—when cooking for guests, you never feel cut off from the conversation.’
‘It’s a compact, easy-to-maintain home, with underfloor heating that adds to its energy efficiency.’
‘The garden offers several distinct spaces to enjoy throughout the day, including a Mediterranean-style area just off the kitchen and a secluded sunny side garden accessed from the family room.’
‘The house enjoys lovely views over its own gardens and out to the rolling hills beyond.’
‘We’re just 100 yards from the local Co-op and post office, and only 200 yards from The George—an award-winning pub with a fantastic terrace and garden overlooking the cricket pitch and church. Bath is just a 15-minute drive away, and there’s a reliable bus service too.’
‘The neighbours here are wonderfully friendly—there’s a real sense of community.’
