A property on an 0.7 acre plot described as an “outstanding Victorian residence” has come onto the market in Hessle.

Thorncliffe House in Southfield, Hessle, is listed for sale at £1,150,000. The main residence is full of stunning original features and a detached cottage provides even more living space.

It is being marketed by Limb Estate Agents, Brough. In their description of the property, they said: “Thorncliffe House is probably one of the finest examples of Victorian residential architecture in the region boasting many fabulous period features and exuding great character.

“The property is discreetly located within the stunning Southfield conservation area, home to many properties of distinction, on the southern outskirts of Hessle, a vibrant small town some six miles to the west of Hull.”

Arranged over two floors, the main residence has “elegant proportions” and was built to take full advantage of its south facing aspect “with many of the principle rooms enjoying views across the delightful gardens”, the agents said.

In the impressive hallway is an original mosaic floor which complements the striking staircase. There are two grand reception rooms plus a study, an Amdega conservatory, kitchen, large patio, utility and store room. Upstairs are five bedrooms served by two bathrooms.

The agents added: “The grounds have been lovingly tended over the years with thoughtful planting creating many areas of interest.

“Sweeping lawns extend to the south and west of the house complemented by well stocked borders with many ornamental shrubs and trees.

“A Yorkstone patio extends to much of the south and west elevations. There is also a very useful potting shed and greenhouse and vegetable garden.”
