Description

Hutton-le-Hole is a popular village on the southern edge of the North York Moors National Park where a community of traditional stone properties are grouped around wide open greens where sheep graze freely and a shallow moorland stream meanders through. Surrounded by excellent walking and riding country, the village lies just three miles north of the A170 giving quick and easy access to the local market towns of Kirkbymoorside, Pickering and Helmsley. The village is also within commuting distance of the north east, taking the most direct route along Blakey Ridge which passes through spectacular moorland scenery.

Well Cottage occupies a slightly elevated position on the edge of the village and comprises a detached, east facing, stone property with a sizeable, well established garden. Although the property may benefit from some cosmetic updating it still offers a comfortable kitchen with an aga, Separate dining room, a sitting room with a log burning stove that links through glass panelled doors to a most light and pleasant garden room. Upstairs there are two good sized double bedrooms and a recently fitted bathroom. The garden surrounds Well cottage on three sides and has access for parking via the back lane of the village.

Outside

Well Cottage is approached from the front via a wooden gate and brings visitors onto a York Stone patio. This hard standing extends right around the side and rear of the house finishing in a terraced area that would ideally suit quiet, sheltered enjoyment of the garden. There is a considerable portion of the garden down to lawn that weaves its way amongst cultivated beds and herbaceous borders. Walking up the garden that is bound either side with dry stone wall one finally reaches a gravelled area that can be approached by vehicle via the back lane. It offers private parking and with relevant planning consent might well suit some garaging. There are two small outhouses within the garden to offer additional storage along with an oil tank for the central heating.

The owners pay an annual fine of £12 to the Manor of Spaunton Court Leat to access the rear of the property via Back Lane.
