Offered to the market for the first time in generations, 1 Hornington Cottages is a unique and characterful home steeped in local history. Forming the majority of what was once a row of three farm workers’ cottages, this semi-detached property occupies two-thirds of the original footprint and includes a generous side garden and lawn, attractive walled courtyard, useful outbuildings, and off-street parking. Beautifully set behind a picket fence and rose-filled frontage, this cottage offers a quintessential rural aesthetic in a pretty countryside setting. The home has been well-loved and once belonged to Hornington Manor, now a highly popular wedding venue. The property now presents an exciting opportunity for sympathetic modernisation. The double-glazed front door opens into a spacious front reception room, complete with original built-in cupboards, under-stairs storage, and stairs rising to the first floor. A second reception room sits adjacent, also enjoying front-facing views across open fields and featuring a solid-fuel stove with stone hearth and surround. To the rear of the property, the kitchen and dining area is fitted with a range of base and wall units, built-in storage, and space for freestanding appliances. A window above the stainless-steel sink frames uninterrupted views across surrounding farmland. A side door leads out to the delightful, enclosed courtyard with two brick outbuildings and a further gate opening to the garden. Off the kitchen, a latch door leads down into a former pantry—most recently used as a utility and WC—with power, light, and  WC plumbing in place. Upstairs, a side window fills the landing with natural light and provides a view over the gardens and lawned area beyond. There are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, each with charming rural views. The shower is room fitted with corner cubicle, Mira electric shower, WC, wash basin with storage below and electric towel rail. A window gives beautiful views to the rear.  Externally, opposite the cottage, the property benefits from an exclusive parking area for both cottages. It is gated and features honeycomb parking mesh with grass topper ensuring it blends in with the landscape. The boundary is a typical field hedge with post and rails and a five bar field gate. This area is divided between each property 50/50 with a separate title plan, rights of way, joint maintenance agreements and restrictions to remain as a car park. Subject to the required planning, it may also be possible to add a driveway to the property which could be investigated by the new owners.  The property benefits from an attractive and generous side garden comprising of a planted garden area with a lawn beyond. There is a lawned and planted strip of garden to the rear of the property which naturally opens out onto farmland, currently without fixed boundary. The attractive courtyard provides a footprint for a multitude of uses, including additional external seating area or the potential to extend the property, subject to the required planning consent. The courtyard also benefits from power, light, an external water tap and two outhouses. The garden beyond the courtyard is attractively planted with an array of shrubs and trees and houses the septic tank below. A lawn with stepping stone path leads to a gravel and patio area, which in-turn opens up to a substantial lawn with hedging on one side and ditch to the other. There is a Wayleave Agreement in respect of an electricity pole on the property. The septic tank is emptied annually by Leo Dawson from Harrogate. The annual cleaning cost is 50/50 split with the property next door. The cottage would benefit from a series of modernisation works including the installation of central heating in replacement of the disconnected storage heaters.
