Built in 1908 for a Master Mariner and now offered to the market for the first time in sixty years, Henlly's is a handsome, double-fronted Edwardian villa commanding an enviable position in the celebrated coastal village of Robin Hood's Bay. A home of rare period character, it has been sympathetically renovated to preserve its considerable original charm while providing every comfort expected of a modern family residence.
The double-fronted facade, with its elegant bay windows, makes an immediate impression, hinting at the craftsmanship within. Throughout, the renovation has been undertaken with great care and sensitivity, retaining a wealth of original features including period fireplaces, stained glasswork, and an impressive carved balustrade — details of authentic character increasingly difficult to find in today's market.
The lounge and dining room are both distinguished spaces, each centred around a beautiful marble fireplace that serves as a gracious focal point. The breakfast kitchen is a wonderfully characterful room, featuring a traditional Aga and original quarry-tiled floor, complemented by a walk-in pantry and adjoining utility room.
Five well-proportioned double bedrooms, arranged across two upper floors, provide generous family accommodation served by two bathrooms, with a convenient WC positioned off the half landing. Modern electric heating and double glazing ensure contemporary comfort throughout without compromising the property's period integrity.
Externally, a collection of charming original outbuildings — including an outdoor privy, coal store, and workshop — speaks evocatively to the villa's rich history. A private rear garden with garden shed completes the outdoor offering, providing a tranquil retreat from which to enjoy the surrounding coastal landscape.
