5 bedroom detached house for sale

A fabulous rural hideaway just 3.5 miles from the centre of York. Wayside Farm is a hidden gem tucked away in the centre of Earswick Village and set behind a pair of gates with attractive gardens and grounds extending to 2.6 acres with a further 4.2 acre paddock. The vendors have created beautiful areas within the gardens with the artistic use of trees, an array of interesting planting and a thriving vegetable plot. The detached family house provides 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and 5 reception rooms. There are also a number of extremely useful outbuildings including a 5 box stable, workshop/studio, closed barn, pole barn and further stores. At the bottom of the garden is large pond which backs onto the separate paddock.

A private driveway winds through the secluded front garden and on through gates to the sweeping block paved courtyard overlooking the parkland-style lawned garden and continues to the outbuildings beyond.

The main part of the house provides 4 double bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and the living space to match, whilst the adjoining wing provides two additional living areas, a shower room/WC and a fifth bedroom.

The front entrance door opens into a lobby where double doors lead through into the entrance hall, and there is also a cloakroom/WC to one side. The open plan entrance hall and dining room connects with the south and west-facing conservatory which has a solid roof with Velux skylights, and overlooks the secluded side garden. At the opposite end of the house is the dual aspect lounge which enjoys a view over the main lawn and features an exposed brick Inglenook fireplace with a log burner. There is also a separate study to the front. The kitchen looks out to the rear garden and is fitted with a range of wall and base units with granite effect worktops, a gas hob, overhead extractor, an electric oven, a separate gas fired Rayburn range cooker, and an integral dishwasher.

There is a rear entrance door that opens into the utility room which has space for appliances and leads to the adjoining wing, and to the covered patio which in turn links to the boiler room. The wing building comprises a shower room/WC, a store room, a large family room, a bedroom and a separate office. The family room is particularly impressive as it has a vaulted ceiling, enjoys a dual aspect with patio doors to the garden, has a log burner, and ample space to accommodate two living areas. To the side is a triple aspect office, and a staircase that leads up the fifth bedroom on the first floor.

The property has gas central heating, double glazing and an energy performance rating (EPC) of C.

There are two main outbuildings; one which forms a continuation of the wing of the house, and the other which is a barn divided into four sections, including the largest area which houses an above-ground heated swimming pool. An adjoining large car port provides space for several vehicles. There is also a stable block, a garden pod and various green houses and potting sheds.
