Honeycote, Ellingstring

Starting Bid £335,000 -

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial three-bedroom property in the rural hamlet of Ellingstring, together with approximately 4.45 acres of land held in three separate parcels.

The property comprises an entrance hall, living room, dining room, kitchen with an old range, pantry, two additional store rooms, rear porch and WC. There are two separate staircases, with one staircase leading to the main bedroom, which benefits from an en-suite, and a second staircase leading to two further bedrooms situated at the opposite side of the house.

The house is accompanied by approximately 0.87 acres of garden and grounds, with two further separate meadow parcels extending to approximately 2.09 acres and 1.49 acres.

The property is understood to have formerly operated as a public house and historically benefited from additional rooms, offering an interesting layout and scope for reconfiguration, subject to any necessary consents.

Externally, there is an attached barn and lean-to, together with approximately 0.87 acres of garden and grounds. The gardens are currently heavily overgrown, with a mixture of established bushes and mature trees, providing a blank canvas for landscaping and restoration.

The property has been vacant for some time and requires full renovation and modernisation throughout, offering significant potential for someone looking for a substantial project in a lovely rural location.

Situated within the popular hamlet of Ellingstring, the property enjoys a peaceful countryside setting while being within reach of Harrogate and the surrounding towns and villages.

Please note: The property was subject to an Emergency Prohibition Order in August 2021. Prospective purchasers are advised to make their own enquiries and satisfy themselves fully regarding the condition, suitability and potential use of the property before bidding.
