An elegant detached Georgian farmhouse set within a quarter-acre plot in the centre of an attractive rural village, enjoying a prominent position with a pleasant outlook across an expansive village green. The conservation village of Barton-le-Willows lies in beautiful countryside adjacent to the Howardian Hills AONB. Located between York (11 miles away) and Malton (8 miles away) it offers ready access onto the A64 trunk road 1 mile to the north.
The house, constructed of mellow brick under a mainly blue slate roof, retains many period features including: stone flagged hallway, return staircase, open fireplaces, and sash windows with “pull up” shutters. Well proportioned with high ceilings, the accommodation is arranged over two floors and amounts to almost 2,500 sq.ft. (3090 sq.ft. when including outbuildings).
The ground floor accommodation comprises: entrance hall, drawing room, dining room, office, guest cloakroom, farmhouse kitchen with Aga and pantry, snug/family room, rear lobby, utility room, and larder/store. To the first floor there are four double bedrooms and a family bathroom leading off a spacious central landing, the master bedroom having an en-suite bathroom.
The property is accessed over a private driveway across the village green. The courtyard layout to the side and rear of the house also provides a substantial hardstanding parking area. The good sized wrap-around garden and grounds are largely south/east/west facing, being part-walled, part-fenced, and mainly laid to lawn with flower beds, borders and hedging. A patio area adjoins the snug/family room. The gated driveway leads to a detached double garage and a further outbuilding for general purpose storage (including oil tank store).
Services include: mains water and electricity, mains drainage, oil-fired central heating and Aga, BT connection, intruder alarm (all subject to contract).
The property requires some refurbishment and updating, but presents opportunities for a buyer to newly fit out to their own taste and specifications, thereby re-creating what has previously been a delightful family home.
