Hawkslyn, a prominent Grade II Listed stone residence, is nestled in the charming village of Hawksworth and boasts a rich history that dates back to the late 17th century. Initially a farmhouse, it later served as the popular coaching inn known as 'The Brown Cow' during the mid-19th century, before reverting to its current form as a private home. This property offers an exceptional opportunity for renovation enthusiasts looking to breathe new life into a historic structure while preserving its unique character. With its original architectural features intact, including exposed wooden beams and stone walls, Hawkslyn presents a distinctive project for those who appreciate heritage properties.
The accommodation spans two floors, starting with a practical ground floor layout that includes a utility room with W.C., access to a vaulted cellar, breakfast kitchen featuring a cast iron Victorian range cooker, along with both dining and living rooms that showcase the home’s historical charm. The first floor hosts three bedrooms, including a principal suite with en-suite facilities, all of which could benefit from modern updates.
Outside, the property is set within approximately two acres of gardens ripe for transformation. The expansive grounds feature varied topography and mature tree borders which could be revitalized into landscaped areas or potentially developed further with appropriate permissions. The existing outdoor space creates an ideal canvas for creating private retreats or additional outbuildings.
Conveniently located just off Main Street in Hawksworth and within reach of local amenities in Menston and Guiseley. Furthermore, easy access to larger towns like Leeds and Bradford enhances its appeal for those seeking both tranquility and convenience.
