Hill View, Harmby, Leyburn

Hill View is a five-bedroom family home dating back to the 18th century, beautifully renovated to a high standard while retaining a wealth of original charm and character throughout.

The property is entered via a welcoming porch with a charming Joseph Wootton doorbell, and useful fitted shoe storage. This leads to the main hallway, linking through to the heart of the home, the kitchen. This is fitted with a range of bespoke units by Country Kitchens with both black saddled granite and solid wood surfaces. There is a generous island with breakfast bar seating and integrated appliances, a double Belfast sink, Rangemaster five-ring cooker and a practical walk-in larder. 

Leading directly from the kitchen is the impressive south-facing garden room and dining area, flooded with natural light through expansive windows and skylights, whilst perfectly framing the beautiful surrounding gardens and countryside beyond. The french doors open onto the paved patio, perfect for outdoor/indoor living, where there is also a useful separate WC. 

To the rear of the property is a practical utility room fitted with additional storage, plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, a wash basin, and direct access to the rear garden.

The sitting room is centred around an inglenook fireplace with a multi-fuel log burning stove beneath a feature exposed timber beam. This charming sitting room perfectly showcases the property’s character. 

The first floor offers four generously proportioned double bedrooms, two of which benefit from fitted wardrobes. The family bathroom features a vanity sink unit, separate shower and bath.

Occupying the entire second floor is the principal bedroom with en-suite. Flooded with natural light from multiple Velux windows, the room enjoys stunning panoramic countryside views, ample fitted storage, and a beautifully designed open-plan en-suite bathroom, featuring a freestanding bath positioned to enjoy the spectacular outlook, a shower, double vanity unit, and separate WC with bidet.

Externally, Hill View is approached via a gravelled driveway providing ample off-road parking alongside a detached double garage draped in mature wisteria. The front gardens are beautifully established with fruit trees, well-stocked flower beds, mature shrubs, and a raised lawn. 

To the rear, the property enjoys a private and beautifully maintained garden with a lawned area, colourful borders, fig tree, a small pond, and paved seating terrace perfectly positioned to take advantage of the outstanding open views across the surrounding countryside and beyond the traditional “ha-ha” wall.

Overall, Hill View represents a rare opportunity to acquire a superb character home finished to an exceptionally high standard throughout, offering generous family accommodation in an idyllic setting. An early viewing is highly recommended.
