Introduction - Shaws House is a truly special property located in the centre of this beautiful conservation village. Exquisitely presented and exuding great charm and character with an abundance of period features, this property really must be viewed to be fully appreciated. Of historical interest, having a prestigious Grade II listing, the rear section of the property is believed to date back to the 1600's when it was purportedly the "honeymoon cottage" to the then Howden estate. The front façade as we see it today was added in 1784, once being a school and a veterinary surgery. Today this outstanding period property is a delightful home which has a garden to the rear of approximately 280ft in length with paved terrace and lawn. The accommodation is depicted on the attached floorplan and briefly comprises two stunning reception rooms to the front of the property with a further reception room to the rear with kitchen, study and utility room beyond. The upper two floors have a series of four bedrooms complimented by a stylish shower room, en-suite to bed 1 and a fabulous loft bathroom with claw footed freestanding bath. This accommodation has a gas fired central heating system to radiators and there is a selection of double glazing. There are a number of outbuildings, one being a former stable complete with hay rack. The rear garden is idyllic extending to approximately 280ft in length being mainly lawned complete with an extensive terrace directly to the rear of the house, an ideal place to enjoy the sun, relax or entertain. There is a covered hot tub area complete with sun awning which looks down the garden.
