Hangingshaw East Lodge, Yarrowford

A fantastic opportunity to purchase a beautifully presented bungalow, enjoying an idyllic location, surrounded by views of rolling hills in the wonderful Yarrow Valley. The property enjoys a quiet location set back off the main thoroughfare and enjoys a generous plot with garden grounds extending to approx. 0.44 acres which are mainly laid to lawn, with a kitchen garden, bordered by plants, shrubbery and hedging. The C listed, double fronted cottage has potential to extend and previously had permission to develop the attic but would equally benefit from a garden room/kitchen extension with a large garden plot included in the sale enabling the owner to take best advantage of the spectacular location, which would lend itself perfectly to those looking to downsize for a peaceful, outdoors lifestyle.

The striking detached property hosts a large master bedroom and living room which both sit proudly with bay windows either side of the feature entrance. An inner connecting hallway is currently utilised as a useful lobby/study area, perfect for those home working. A bright and neutral kitchen sits to the rear of the property enjoying outlooks over the extensive garden grounds, with a door providing convenient access out to the side and parking area.

Steeped in history, Hangingshaw East Lodge was a former gate lodge, constructed approximately 150 years ago and later converted and developed by the present owner some 50 years ago to provide todays accommodation. Exuding character and charm throughout and benefitting from wonderful natural light, the property also offers exciting development potential with the attic space, or extending to take advantage of the sizeable garden to the rear.
