A UNIQUE LISTED COUNTRY PROPERTY WITH STUNNING INTERIORS OFFERING FLEXIBLE LIVING ACCOMMODATION IDEAL FOR MULTIGENERATIONAL LIVING, INCOME GENERATION OR SEPARATE GUEST ACCOMMODATION AND SITUATED IN ONE OF THE REGION’S MOST DESIRABLE VILLAGES
Situation
Much admired for its individual homes and with only limited new development in recent years, it is no wonder the North Yorkshire Village of Harome enjoys such popularity. To many it is also the regional destination for food lovers with two award winning restaurants/hotels being the Star Inn and Pheasant Hotel. The village sits on the edge but just outside both the Howardian Hills National Landscape and North Yorks Moor National Park with the picturesque and well serviced market town of Helmsley only a 5-6 minute short drive. Scarborough is some 31 miles to the east, Thirsk 17 miles to the west and York 25 miles to the south.
Accomomdation
The Hollies occupies a prominent yet quiet position at the southern end of Mill Street, on the edge of the village in grounds of just over half an acre with particularly pleasant views over the surrounding countryside. The grade II listed thatched principal dwelling, known as Holly Cottage, exudes character as one would expect with a property dating from the C17th and believed to have earlier origins. The secondary dwellings at The Hollies comprise the delightful Foxglove Cottage and a pretty annex known as Primrose Cottage. Both are self-contained one bedroomed properties of varying size. The latter is ideally suited for use by dependent relatives, and the former for holiday letting purposes, to compliment the generous two bedroom living accommodation within Holly Cottage itself. Foxglove Cottage also has potential for enlargement into an attached utility store/garage (subject to appropriate consents). Each property is presented in its own distinctive and immaculate style following comprehensive improvement and upgrading by the present owners in recent years to an exacting standard.
The Hollies stands in substantial grounds totally some 0.53 acres being predominantly lawned, yet arranged to give private garden and terracing areas for each of the dwellings whilst at the same time not compromising the overall feeling of space and openness, nor the lovely views.
