Additional Information - At the heart of the house is the beautifully proportioned sitting room, accessed through double doors. The room is triple aspect, has a multi-fuel stove with traditional surround, mellow floorboards and a square bay with French doors giving access to the garden. The floorboards continue to the adjacent dining room. Open the bi-fold doors back and a superb living space of nearly 30 ft is revealed with two sets of French doors offering direct access to the garden patio outside. The kitchen breakfast room is fitted with country-style modern units including an island unit, granite worktops, integrated appliances, a laundry cupboard and space to accommodate a dining table. The room is illuminated with natural light with glazing running across the front elevation and a set of French doors. On the first floor are four bedrooms and two bathrooms including the principal bedroom suite which spans the depth of the house and has lovely views; alongside is the three-piece en suite bathroom. The three further bedrooms are served by a house bathroom which includes a freestanding bath tub with shower attachment; the single bedroom would serve equally well as an office/study.

The cottage is detached, has accommodation of nearly 700 sq ft arranged over two floors, has its own separate entrance and sliding doors facing south. Constructed in 2018, it has barely been used and is both well-equipped and appointed. The kitchen breakfast room is fully fitted and can accommodate a small table; alongside is the cloakroom/wc and access to the garden. Upstairs the 18 ft sq bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and a walk-on balcony with far-reaching country views.

Outside - An in-and-out block paved driveway continues along the western boundary, past the rear entrance to the house, terminating in front of the cottage. The whole provides generous parking and turning options. The rear garden is secure, sheltered and private, bounded by fencing and well-established hedging. It is predominantly lawned, with mature shrubs, and faces south with two paved terraces positioned to enjoy the best of the sunshine all day.

Environs - Sheriff Hutton is steeped in history with a privately owned 14th century castle, formerly home to the infamous Richard III, the ruins of which dominate the village. St Helen's church dates from Norman times and the medieval stocks are still in place on the village green. Amenities abound including a village primary school, church, post office/general store, garage and a public house. The city of York with its railway station lies some eleven miles to the south, offering a mainline service to Edinburgh, Manchester/Airport and to London Kings Cross in under two hours. The village sits in glorious countryside on the edge of the rising Howardian Hills and is conveniently located midway between York and Malton. Its proximity to the A64 York-Scarborough road enables easy access to the North York Moors and Yorkshire coast as well as to Leeds, the A1(M) and national motorway network.
