About The Property - Set within the sought-after conservation village of St Hilary, this exceptional five bedroom home combines modern luxury with elegant design. St Hilary is regarded as one of the most picturesque villages in the Vale of Glamorgan, with its historic church, thatched cottages, and the renowned “Bush Inn” public house/restaurant. The village is perfectly placed, offering a peaceful rural setting while remaining within easy reach of Cowbridge and its excellent range of shops, services, and Waitrose supermarket.

The property has been finished to the very highest specification, with impressive attention to detail throughout. From the moment you step through the Oak front door, the sense of quality is apparent. A spacious entrance area with coat cupboard sets the tone, leading into the principal living spaces.

To the left is the lounge and sitting room, complete with a striking “Topstak” log burner, integrated speaker system, and sliding doors opening to the patio. The open-plan kitchen/dining room is a true centrepiece, fitted with high-end appliances including double Samsung ovens, a Neff induction hob on the central island, and an integrated Samsung dishwasher. Stylish matt black paired with white quartz worktop, while a walk-in pantry offers additional work surfaces and electrics. A second “Topstak” fireplace adds warmth and character. Expansive bifold and French doors open directly onto the timber decking and patio, creating superb indoor-outdoor flow.

Further ground floor highlights include a media room, a sleek home office with French doors to the garden, a home gym, and a beautifully decorated cloakroom. The utility room is cleverly designed with excellent storage, a laundry chute from the first floor, and access to both the boot room and the double garage. Underfloor heating extends across much of the ground floor.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress. The master suite enjoys views across neighbouring woodland, with a walk-through dressing room and stylish en suite shower room. A superb guest suite offers its own lounge, shower room en suite, and a balcony overlooking the rear of the property. Three further spacious doubles share a beautifully appointed family bathroom with large walk-in shower and freestanding bath.
