Hatfield House, Church Lane, Skirlaugh, HU11

A pretty 3 bedroom semi detached cottage located in thecentre of this highly regarded residential village east of Beverley.  Theproperty has been a much loved home over many years but areas will requireupdating for some.  It offers 2 good sized reception rooms, a large diningkitchen and 3 bedrooms including 2 good doubles, in all nearly 1100 sq ft ofaccommodation.  In addition, there is a good sized garden and a longoutbuilding which was a garage and could be re-used as such.  A reallylovely property.

The property’s cottage feel is enhanced by its timberframed style exterior and exposed beams to the two reception rooms as well asdoors and fireplaces.  Its room proportions though are of a more modernfashion, particularly the very generously proportioned kitchen which backs ontothe garden and may provide an excellent opportunity for bifold doors ontothe garden (subject to necessary regulations).  There may also be thepotential to extend over the kitchen to extend the first floor, subject tonecessary permissions.  The property may suit a range of purchasers, fromdownsizers to others looking for a larger property.  Its location in thecentre of Skirlaugh with a good range of shops and amenities for a village islikely to have real appeal.  With oil fired central heating and extensivedouble glazing the accommodation comprises:  Entrance Vestibule, LivingRoom, Dining Room, Dining Kitchen and Bathroom with 4 piece suite includingseparate shower unit.  To the first floor are 2 Double Bedrooms and a SingleBedroom.  There are gardens to the front with a high privet hedge to theperimeter.  A gravelled driveway provides off street parking and leads to thebuilding which was formerly a garage and could be returned to use as one(subject to any necessary permissions).  The rear garden is largely laidto lawn with a number or mature trees and shrubs and is not particularlyoverlooked. 

A really lovely property that demands an early internalinspection and has no forward chain.
