Property details

Bedrooms: 4

The whitewashed facade hides a wealth of period features offered within this very generously sized cottage, the original part of which is thought to date back to the late 1700's. Hill Top Farm was a working farm for many years, held within the same local family. Today the property is offered for sale, providing a great opportunity for those seeking a home of immense character as the features retained are in abundance, with beams and a number of interesting nooks and crannies.
Stillingfleet is an attractive village, with St Helens church standing proudly before the bridge and The Green flanking each bank. The village falls within the catchment area of Naburn Infant/Primary school and the highly regarded Fulford School.
In brief: hallway, sitting room, lounge, farmhouse style kitchen, store room, utility room, porch with access to single storey annexe with living room and separate bedroom with en suite bathroom. To the first floor lies a split landing with study area, a master bedroom suite including a fabulous refurbished bathroom and dressing area, two further bedrooms and house bathroom.

The two barns situated to the rear of Hill Top Farm have planning permission allowing their conversion into two stunning homes and are available for sale by separate negotiation. Sale particulars for the barns are available on line or upon request.
