5 bedroom house

Hawthorn House is a detached village residence, which started life as a pair of Victorian cottages, built by the Sykes family of Sledmere House in the late 1800s. In more recent times the cottages were amalgamated and a substantial, yet sympathetic two-storey extension added to the rear to create a very appealing family home set within a wonderful half acre plot.



The property is constructed of attractive brick elevations under a rosemary tile roof and offers a versatile range of accommodation approaching 3,000sq.ft with the benefit of upvc double-glazing and LPG central heating. In brief it comprises: entrance hall, living room with inglenook fireplace, study/formal dining room, 19ft dining kitchen which is open onto a nicely proportioned breakfast room, guest cloakroom and utility. Upstairs there five double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a box room and an office or sixth bedroom.



A large double garage was added to the side around 25 years ago and offers great potential to create a self-contained annexe, if required, by incorporating the bedroom above - subject to securing the necessary consents. Having driveways on either side of the house, there is ample room to park and the property occupies an enviable plot of approximately half an acre. The back garden faces south, enjoying a high degree of privacy and is mostly laid to lawn and interspersed with mature shrubs along the boundaries. There are two generous patio areas and the far end of the plot has been fenced off and could easily make a small holding paddock or a productive kitchen garden perhaps.
