- The Corner House is a stone-built property dating from the 1850s.

Formerly two separate houses and combined into a single residence many years ago, it retains a wealth of architectural interest, including stone mullion windows and an ornamental ridge.

Period features abound and include latched doors, deep-set walls with window seats, fireplaces, Yorkshire sliding sash windows, panelling, exposed beams and original cupboard doors.

The sitting room is triple aspect and uncommonly large with fine proportions, a working Baxi fireplace, fitted bookshelves and a door opening onto the rear garden.

Across the hall, the delightful kitchen/dining room is a family-sized space with engineered floorboards and an ornate cast iron fireplace flanked by arched alcoves.

The kitchen is fitted with granite worktops, integrated appliances and an oil-fired Aga which also heats the water.

The kitchen is complemented by a walk-in larder and alongside is a large laundry/utility room fitted with a Belfast sink.

On the first floor the principal bedroom is double aspect with fitted wardrobes. There are three further bedrooms (one serves as a study/office ideal for homeworking) and two large bathrooms.

The loft space is accessed via a loft ladder, is part boarded with power and light and fitted with shelving and a hanging rail.

Outside - The traditional front door of the house is approached over an open lawned frontage with a flagged path.

Climbing roses and honeysuckle adorn this elevation, framed by colourful herbaceous borders and a striking flowering cherry tree.

The paved driveway is accessed via a gate, overlooked by a much-admired ceanothus. It provides parking for two additional vehicles and leads to the garaging.

Part-walled and enclosed by established shrubs, with a summerhouse in the far corner, the sunken garden is centred on a lawn surrounded by deep, well-stocked flower borders.

This is a true gardener’s garden, featuring a range of cottage garden perennials along with laburnum, ceanothus, apple, holly and silver birch.

Bounded on two sides by a deep rockery planted with alpine species and spring bulbs, the garden is both sheltered and tranquil.

A flagged terrace with a raised herb bed leads through a wall adorned with roses to the courtyard, where there is a greenhouse, further outbuildings, two water butts, a composting area and a walled yard.

Outbuildings - The former stables are attached to the house and have been adapted to provide generous garaging for two cars, along with a log store and additional storage.

A staircase leads to the hayloft, now arranged as two rooms, both boarded and fitted with cupboards, electricity and power.

A window to the northern elevation enjoys far-reaching views across the Howardian Hills towards Terrington.

The courtyard has a greenhouse with electricity and four further outbuildings/stores, two of which have doors and are fitted out with shelves.

The summerhouse comes with an attached store for garden furniture.
