Description
A truly exquisite late Georgian house within a conservation area located in the charming village of Thorner. This stunning house dates back to circa 1840 and stands proudly within just over two and a quarter acres of meticulously maintained gardens.
Having been lovingly cared for by the same family since 1964, The Grove offers a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of history and make it your own. The house stands back from the road behind a dressed cut sandstone wall and a belt of mature trees, approached by a gated driveway with turning circle. The Grove is everything you would expect from a grand period home, full of original features with excellent ceiling height and spacious principal rooms, the majority of which overlook the beautiful surrounding gardens.
The property is entered through a magnificent entrance hall, giving way to the three principal reception rooms and sizeable kitchen. Just off the kitchen you will find the original pantry, providing excellent further storage.
Continuing through the ground floor there is a guest bedroom with a sizeable en suite bathroom. A second staircase leads to the first floor and provides the opportunity to create a separate annexe.
The first floor houses five well-proportioned bedrooms, and two house bathrooms. Stairs lead to the second floor which is currently used as a study, with generous eaves storage space.
The grounds are comprised of manicured lawns and magnificent Rhododendrons flanked by belts of mature trees and hedges, with a paddock and kitchen garden to the western side of the property. There are a number of well-maintained stone outbuildings which give way to a wonderful glasshouse with mature grape vine.
Location
Thorner supports a broad range of amenities, sports clubs, a delicatessen, two public houses, a restaurant as well as a highly regarded primary school. The Grammar School at Leeds, in Alwoodley and Gateways School at Harewood are both within easy reach. The market town of Wetherby is only 15 minutes’ drive from the property offering a wide range of amenities including supermarkets, shops and further recreational facilities.
There is excellent access to the principal Yorkshire centres of Leeds, Harrogate and York with the A64 one and a half miles, A1(M) six miles to the east and the M1 and regional motorway infrastructure 6 miles to the south.
Please note all distances and travel times are approximate.
