East End, Walkington, HU17 8RY

A rare opportunity to secure a detached cottage style property in the heart of this highly sought after East Yorkshire Village.  With what are believed to be elements of a period building including a gable end and the front wall the property has a lovely character and provides extensive living space supplemented by four first floor bedrooms, three of which are doubles. 

The property overlooks the western edge of the picturesque village pond and is nestled behind a mature beech hedge.  An expansive area of gravelled hardstanding provides parking for a number of vehicles and gives access to the integral garage.  The attractive period entrance and door opens into the entrance hall with stairs to the first floor and a WC cloaks.  There is a spacious living room with double doors leading to the garden room.  To the other side of the entrance hall there is a dining room with French windows opening onto the garden and a newly fitted breakfast kitchen with a range of fitted appliances.  A utility room provides access to the garage and also the garden.  The property benefits from a gas fired central heating system and extensive uPVC double glazing. 

To the first floor a long landing leads to four bedrooms including master bedroom with fitted wardrobes and en suite shower room, 2 further double bedrooms (both with fitted wardrobes) and a single bedroom.  There is a modern fitted 4 piece house bathroom with a separate shower unit.

To the rear of the house is a delightful mature cottage garden with a paved patio area, lawn and a host of well established plants and shrubs.

The property was flooded in late 2023 due to a sluice gate being closed on the nearby pond during very wet weather.  It was an unprecedented incident and steps have been taken to ensure it shouldn’t happen again.  Please ask for further information.  As a result of the water ingress extensive redecoration and improvements have been made to the ground floor of the property.  The current owners are moving to live closer to family.

We are delighted to be instructed to offer this wonderful property to the market.  Blending traditional charm, an excellent location and spacious modern accommodation we are sure it will generate significant interest and an early internal inspection is highly recommended.
