SUMMARY
Bankers Hill House is situated in a picturesque location off a quiet country lane within walking distance of the Wildlife Trust of South and West Wales Parc Slip Nature Reserve. Set in a quiet location off a little used country lane yet within easy reach of the M4.


DESCRIPTION
Bankers Hill House is situated in a picturesque location off a quiet country lane within walking distance of the Wildlife Trust of South and West Wales Parc Slip Nature Reserve. The Reserve is a restored former opencast site consisting of grassland, woodland, wetlands, including lakes with bird hides. The Park is made up of broadleaved and coniferous plantations, improved grassland, and four flower rich fields. There are ample footpaths, a bridleway and Route 4 of the National cycle network crosses the Reserve.

The property has the best of both worlds: a very quiet location off a little used country lane yet within easy reach of the M4, approximately 3 miles eastbound at junction 36 and about five miles westbound at junction 37. The Bridgend Designer Centre and its comprehensive retail outlet which includes a cinema are adjacent to junction 36. Bridgend town centre is about 5 miles, Cardiff about 20 miles and Swansea 20 miles. There is a local train station at Tondu and Bridgend main line station has fast and frequent train services to London Paddington in about two hours.

The Property
Bankers Hill House is a welsh long house reputed to date back to about 1740 set in approximately three acres of natural pasture, in keeping with the adjacent Nature Reserve, and traditional cottage gardens which include an orchard, a kitchen garden, mature shrubs, herbaceous borders and a rose garden. There are substantial outbuildings for a variety of uses eg livestock and/or horses and currently used as a leisure suite. There is also a greenhouse and potting shed.

The country lifestyle continues into the house, full of character with its beamed ceilings, exposed stonework, wood burning stoves, new sash windows to the front elevation and bespoke fitments including handmade timber kitchen units with matching timber worktops. There are four reception rooms, a conservatory and a cloakroom to the ground floor and three double bedrooms, a sitting room and a very large well appointed bath/shower room to the first floor.
