Property Description
Urrard House started life as the stationmaster's house on the Thirsk to Malton line which opened in 1853. Named Hovingham Spa Station in an attempt to draw more visitors, the station remained open until 1964 when it finally closed to all passengers, as a result of diminishing numbers and a drive to save money. The vacant house was then adopted by the village doctor who ran his practice from the neighbouring buildings until recently.
Whilst the original brick building is still in evidence, it has been significantly extended and reconfigured internally, forming the generous family house which stands today. The accommodation has been well-maintained and updated in recent years, each of the living spaces being of generous proportions and blessed with plenty of natural light. The first floor boasts 5 good-sized bedrooms, all with pleasant views of the gardens and surrounding countryside, and a large family bathroom with separate shower.
The property stands on the northern edge of this picturesque and particularly well served estate village, accessed via a gated gravelled driveway to one side which continues through the large front lawn and leads to a separate block of 4 garages. The gardens extend around to the rear of the house where there is an ornamental pond and raised terrace providing the perfect vantage point from which to enjoy the far reaching rural views.
