Property Details

'Lynwood' as it is known today, was originally named back when it was built in 1938 by Ridsdale Builders and was sold to our client's family back in the late 1960's and the property has been the main residence ever since. 

Offering deceptively spacious accommodation throughout, The Hills is known for its beautiful panoramic vista overlooking the North East coastline and indeed, especially special for its fantastic sunsets seen from the front elevation.  It has been very well cared for throughout and offers an abundance of good sized living accommodation and a wealth of Period features including plaster corniced ceilings, original wooden entrance doors,  picture perfect windows with panoramic coastal views to the front elevation, a lovely staircase with gallery landing up to the first floor, a bay windowed sitting room, separate dining room, breakfast room with walk-in pantry cupboard, solid Oak fitted kitchen, a ground floor Cloakroom, access to the double garage and rear workshop/storage room is from the rear garden.

The established private walled gardens enjoys a great amount of privacy, set behind local dressed stone retaining walls with manicured lawns, well stocked planting including a variety of unusual plants which offer colour throughout the year, mature trees and borders and the property enjoys many species of visiting wildlife including a resident owl, pheasants and even local deer have been spotted to the rear of the property, which is not overlooked and has a wooded embankment stretching towards fields within Skelton Green.

Situated in an elevated position above and overlooking Skelton having enviable views of Upleatham Hills and the coastline stretching from Hartlepool across to Saltburn by the Sea, this property cannot fail to impress!  The Hills is home to less than twenty residential homes, all bespoke built with individual charm and character and this location has always been very much sought after, highly respected by the community.  Not only does the setting of the property give a sense of peace and tranquillity, the area is surrounded by beautiful countryside walks and resides on the Cleveland Way walk-way.
