"A gorgeous Grade II Listed property with a wealth of character in the tranquil village of Allendale"

The Property
Hallgarth is a handsome Grade II Listed period property with a host of charm and character. The property occupies a generous plot with beautifully maintained mature gardens, all tucked away in a quiet spot yet only steps away from the centre of the popular and historic village of Allendale and close to all village amenities. There is scope to update to add a personal stamp to this lovely property.

A keystone above the front door dates the property to 1829 with a mix of squared stone, quoins and dressings all contributing to the striking symmetry of the front elevation. The front door opens to the hall with the reception rooms to either side. Both rooms are spacious, light and airy. The sitting room has a triple aspect with impressive deep window sills and an exposed stone fireplace housing a gas-fired stove. The dining room also has a fabulous stone fireplace, this time with an open fire. French doors sweep open to one side to allow access out to the driveway and gardens. The kitchen/breakfast room has a country house atmosphere with timber ceiling beams and traditional floor tiling. Fitted units provide ample storage with complementary wood work surfaces. A grand AGA rests within a tiled inglenook and there is plenty of space for a table and chairs for day-to-day dining. Adjoining the kitchen is the utility room with lots of further storage and workspace along with an additional sink and space for white goods. There is direct access to the gravelled driveway and gardens. Beyond the utility room is a ground floor shower room.

There are three bedrooms on the first floor. The two bedrooms to the front elevation each have lovely character fireplaces and one has fitted wardrobes. The third bedroom sits to the rear elevation and all three are served by a shower room with suite comprising large walk-in shower, wash hand basin, bidet and heated towel rail. There is also a separate WC adjacent to the shower room.

Externally
Hallgarth is approached onto a gravelled driveway that sweeps around the house to a generous parking and turning area. There is a substantial detached garage offering space for parking, a workshop or both. A stone-built former outhouse currently offers excellent storage in addition to a garden shed for outdoor equipment. This storage supports the upkeep of the magnificent gardens at Hallgarth which have been laid out and maintained with elegant style. Manicured lawns stretch away with a huge variety of flowers and plant species bringing colour and form. Fruit trees dot the lawn and the whole garden is surrounded by beautiful stone walling that provides privacy. The summerhouse is a delightful spot to relax in peace with a good book, or simply to look out across the wonderful gardens.

Agents Note
Viewers are advised to park in Market Square then proceed on foot, taking the lane to the left side of the Allendale Inn then following around to the right to reach Hallgarth. There is ample parking at the property for the residents but the approach is narrow.
