Knollwood offers the best of both worlds — a traditional Bermuda home with lots of modern conveniences.

The property sits on just over an acre on Stowe Hill, Paget.

It’s secluded, yet only minutes from Hamilton and all that’s there — schools, grocery stores, restaurants and shopping.

The home is now available for sale, for $3,975,000.

It has four bedrooms with en suite bathrooms and a formal living room with a fireplace.

The property also boasts a state-of-the-art kitchen with Viking range and Sub-Zero refrigerator, a formal living room with a fireplace, an expansive deck for outdoor entertaining and a true English pub.

“It was originally built in the 1940s but was totally redone seven years ago,” said realtor Heather Chilvers of Coldwell Banker Bermuda Realty. “It’s the perfect house for entertaining.”

The large kitchen has a spacious dining nook off to one side. There are solid surface countertops and stainless steel appliances; meanwhile the cabinetry is made of cherry wood. Open beams in the dining room date back to the original build. The wood floors are made of Brazilian cherry overlay.

A staircase leads down to the gym and English pub. The latter room has its own dishwasher, ice maker and wine fridge. There’s also a built-in darts board.

French doors lead to a huge covered porch suitable for al fresco dining.

From there it’s an easy walk to the pool; the area lends itself perfectly to cocktail parties.

Said Ms Chilvers: “Tucked away in the heart of Paget, yet only minutes from Hamilton sits ‘Knollwood’.

“Over an acre of extremely private, well-landscaped grounds featuring mature plantings, and hedges around the perimeter.

“Upgraded within the last seven years, Knollwood has many traditional features, yet all the modern conveniences you can imagine — a large eat-in kitchen, dining room with fireplace, large living room, four bedrooms and four bathrooms plus a gym, powder room, laundry and its very own English-style pub.

“The pool has a lovely water feature with lighting, and the surrounding decks are spacious making this a perfect house for both executive and family entertaining.”
