Location
Hillam is a small but very pretty village located 20 miles South of York, 15 Miles East of Leeds and 7 Miles west of the small market town of Selby. It is ideally located for commuting to all major cities with direct rail links to London available from York, Leeds, Doncaster and Selby within 2hrs, and local commuter stations at Sherburn in Elmet, and South Milford. Close to the A1M and M62 motorways only five minutes drive, and Leeds Bradford & Robin Hood Airports 35 mins away.
New shopping centres available at York, Leeds and Castleford provide great opportunity for the hardened shopper along with an abundance of cafes & bars, and with entertainment at the UKs largest indoor ski slope Xscape only 10 miles away.
Hillam and Monk Fryston are neighbouring villages that share local amenities such as the Post Office and General Store, three Village Pubs, Hotel, Play Ground, Doctors Surgery, Football & Cricket Club, and a community centre where the mother & toddler group meet.
Monk Fryston village primary school (walking distance from Hillam) is highly desirable and boasts excellent facilities along with high educational standards, among the highest in Yorkshire. The nearest Secondary education is at Sherburn-In-Elmet or Selby, both these schools have high educational achievements with Selby recently achieving the prestigious accolade of third most improved school in the country. Private school buses pick up in the village for qegs, gsal, Reed and Silcoates schools.
Hillam is surrounded by open country side with great local walks and woodland to explore and plenty to keep the kids entertained. Hillam is located in the county of North Yorkshire and part of Selby District Council, due to its location general insurances and council taxes are low compared to nearby Cities, crime is low and the quality of life is good.
The Property
Austin Cottage was completed renovated and extended in 2003 since then the property only occationally unoccupied by the current owners. The property is deceptively large with 2000 sq ft of living space excluding garage spread over the ground and first floor. The property has four double bedrooms, two with en-suite, family bathroom, dressing room and pc game room on the first floor. On the ground floor there are two reception rooms, one with glass roof, cottage breakfast kitchen with pantry, entrance porch, vestibule, utility room, store / gym and WC. The ground floors are predominantly tiled with natural slate. The cottage has good height ceilings with sunken lighting, some of the original low height doors have been retained. Although modern in every respect the property still manages to retain its quirky country Cottage feel.
Outside
Recent update- To the back of the property there is now a private rear garden with deck area, elavated sun terrace and garden wall separating Austin Cottage and Austin Barn. Plans are also in place to errect a 2m high timber fence (once hard landscaping is complete) down the centre of the currently shared courtyard to create additional private outside living space/ potential garden for each property, this means vehicle (car) access to the current garage will no longer be possible. An additional parking space has been created at the front of the property, with space for a car port. The opportunity also now exist to convert the exiisting garage to additional ground floor accomodation.
To the front Austin Cottage has dedicated parking space for 3/4 vehicles, there is also a garden currently lawn and private stone set patio area that is used for al fresco dining during the summer months. Hanging and wall baskets provide for flower planting in keeping with the court yard feel. There is also safe unrestricted on street parking.
The current planning permission for a single story Granny Annex to the rear of Austin Cottage is due to expire Oct 2011.
This property is being marketed individually and as a pair along with Austin Barn thereby leaving the option open to prospective buyers to buy separately or as whole.
