Hargill House is a substantial Grade II listed Georgian residence offering spacious family living across approximately 2,800 ft². The ground floor features three reception rooms, a kitchen with Aga, utility and a boot room; high ceilings and period fireplaces give character and generous proportions throughout. Five well‑proportioned first‑floor bedrooms overlook mature gardens and village views, creating a comfortable, flexible family layout.
The house requires updating and renovation, presenting an opportunity to restore and personalise a historic home. Its listed status means alterations will be restricted and may involve additional consent and cost; any restoration should factor in specialist materials and listed‑building approvals. There are only two bathrooms (one house bathroom and a separate shower room), so modernising wet rooms could add value and functionality for a large family.
Externally the property sits on a large, mature plot with established trees, formal beds, patio seating areas and off‑street parking; there is scope to erect a garage if required. The village location is accessible and peaceful, with good local primary schools nearby and fast broadband, while the area is very affluent with very low crime.
Practical points to note: council tax is described as quite expensive, viewings are strictly by appointment, and the property’s period status will cause practical and financial challenges during renovation. For buyers seeking a distinguished, characterful home with scope to improve, Hargill House offers rare potential in a desirable North Yorkshire village setting.
