Description

This stone-built property presents a noteworthy opportunity for renovation and modernization located on the edge of the charming village of Hovingham, close to the scenic Howardian Hills. With a well-established layout comprising two formal reception rooms, four bedrooms, and two bathrooms, it offers ample space both indoors and out, complemented by gardens and a single garage. Originally constructed in the late 1980s, this detached home is positioned conveniently at the corner of Pasture Lane, making it ideal for those looking to create their own vision. Upon entering, you are welcomed by a storm porch leading into a reception hall with a staircase and access to a cloakroom. The generous sitting room boasts triple aspect windows and an attractive stone fireplace, setting the stage for potential aesthetic upgrades throughout. The kitchen, though functional with its current integrated appliances, is ripe for transformation—consider expanding it into an open-plan dining kitchen that aligns with modern living trends (subject to local planning regulations). The first floor features a principal bedroom complete with an en-suite shower room along with three additional bedrooms—two offering delightful rural views—and another bathroom needing updates to match contemporary standards. Noteworthy are the original styled sanitary ware in both bathrooms that await reimagining. Additional highlights include oil-fired central heating and double glazing for comfort. The external spaces include open lawned areas at the front and side, along with rear parking accessing the garage. A pathway leads from the garage to the house along with a quaint side garden featuring seating possibilities. This property's combination of location and potential makes it an appealing project for investors or buyers looking to personalize their next home.
