Location
Hovingham is a traditional estate village situated in the Howardian Hills Area of National Beauty, included in The Times Best Places to Live 2022. It is a thriving community with a primary school, village shop, tennis and bowling clubs, hotel, bakery and hairdressers. There is an award winning monthly food market offering more than 40 stalls from across the region.
Surrounded by rolling countryside the village occupies an enviable position and is about five miles from Castle Howard, a stately home open to the public with an excellent farm shop. Hovingham Hall presides over the village and has been home to the Worsley family for 450 years, with its cricket ground, reputed to be the oldest continually played-on, privately owned pitch in the UK.
Helmsley (7.9 miles) is a picturesque market town on the edge of the North York Moors National Park with more extensive shopping, and Malton (8.1 miles) has a supermarket and train station with direct services to York and Leeds. York train station is only 17 miles to the south with regular services to London in under 2 hours.
The House
Ford View Barn is a well executed barn conversion, quietly situated off a village lane. The current owners created this wonderful home of great character, with two reception rooms and three bedrooms.
The impressive kitchen breakfast room has a stone flagged floor, and a vaulted ceiling. There is room for a table, and a breakfast bar with a marble top and bookshelves. The sitting room has a vaulted ceiling, wood burner and opens onto the dining room with french doors onto the garden.
There are two ground floor bedrooms with bathrooms, ideal for those looking to live predominately on one floor, and a first floor bedroom suite with its own bathroom and built in cupboards.
In addition to the main house is a barn, providing two rooms providing a workshop and commercial kitchen which could be converted to a number of uses subject to planning permission and consent from The Hovingham Estate.
The property is accessed along a short, shared drive and has a parking area and gates to a courtyard which leads to the front door. To the rear of the house is the garden with two terraces and a lawn. Beyond the garden is an orchard currently held on an annual licence from The Hovingam Estate.
