West Wing, Hovingham Lodge, Hovingham, York, North Yorkshire

West Wing, Hovingham Lodge, Scackleton, Occupies a peaceful position within the rolling landscape of the Howardian Hills, West Wing forms part of an elegant Grade II listed Georgian residence, offering a rare blend of heritage, character, and space in an exceptionally private setting.

Once part of a traditional dower house, the property now represents a distinct and self-contained wing of the original home, extending to over 1,900 sq ft. Its origins are reflected in a wealth of retained features, including sash windows, working shutters, decorative cornicing, and generous ceiling heights, all contributing to a sense of understated period charm.

The property presents a fantastic opportunity for buyers looking to undertake a programme of refurbishment, offering the potential to reimagine and tailor the space to individual requirements.

The ground floor is arranged around a series of well-proportioned reception spaces.

A bright entrance conservatory provides an inviting introduction, leading through to a substantial sitting room centred around a multi-fuel stove, creating a warm and characterful focal point.

A separate dining room offers a more formal setting, while the kitchen and a convenient cloakroom complete the ground-floor layout.

The first floor hosts two bedrooms alongside a family bathroom, as well as an exceptionally large utility and storage room, offering flexibility for a range of uses. Each room provides panoramic countryside views.

The second floor is dedicated to a further bedroom, featuring a freestanding bath, creating a distinctive and atmospheric retreat within the home.

Externally, the setting is equally appealing. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn, complemented by a pond, and a generous workshop/outbuilding, ideal for hobbies or additional storage.

Finally, a shared driveway with ample private parking for West Wing.

We are informed that planning consent has been approved for the removal of the plastic conservatory roof and to be replaced with a slate roof, creation of a new opening in the internal wall between the living room and kitchen, three conservation skylights in the south east elevation, demolition of the existing garden store and erection of a garden room (Please ask the agent for more information or please search the NYCC planning portal for additional information)
