Spread across three floors, this spacious townhouse boasts, four reception rooms, four bedrooms and two bathrooms, providing ample space for a growing family or those seeking extra room for guests.
There is a one-bedroom annexe which is also Grade II listed and has the potential to be incorporated into the part of the main house (subject to planning permission, granted previously but now lapsed). In addition, there is a charming two bedroomed cottage, which offers flexible living for families or a potential rental income. The property features a well-maintained courtyard garden, ideal for enjoying the peaceful surroundings, as well as a workshop and off-street parking for added convenience. With a welcoming and homely atmosphere, this property offers a stylish and comfortable living space, perfect for those looking for a quiet retreat in a thriving community.
Upon entering, you are greeted by an inviting hallway adorned with original period details. The ground floor features two expansive reception rooms, each filled with natural light and boasting high ceilings and intricate cornicing. There is a stunning dining room with direct access through to the kitchen, making this a perfect space for family gatherings. The kitchen has fitted units at floor and wall height with attractive worktops and has integrated appliances.
To the first floor there are three good sized bedrooms, a house bathroom comprising a four-piece suite and a modern shower room. There is also a useful study which gives access to the top floor. The top floor is a fantastic space having a large bedroom, dressing area and storage room. There is external access to this floor making it ideal for families with older children wanting a private space or independent living space.

We are pleased to present a rare opportunity to acquire a charming property that includes not only a main residence but also a beautifully maintained cottage with exceptional potential. This additional dwelling opens up a range of lifestyle and investment opportunities, offering flexibility for personal use or as a valuable income-generating asset. The cottage is fully self-contained and ideal for long-term letting, providing a consistent and reliable income stream or could be used for staycations and unique travel experiences, the cottage is perfectly suited to operate as a short-term holiday rental, attracting guests year-round. In addition, there is potential for the cottage to be formally split into its own title, creating an entirely separate property that could be sold or rented.
Nestled in the picturesque countryside just south of Tadcaster, the charming and outstanding village of Saxton offers a peaceful rural lifestyle with deep historical roots. Surrounded by gently rolling farmland and quiet country lanes, Saxton is a quintessential Yorkshire village that blends timeless character with a welcoming community atmosphere.
At the heart of the village lies All Saints' Church, a beautiful Grade I listed building dating back to the 11th century, while walkers and nature lovers can enjoy the scenic trails that crisscross the surrounding landscape. Saxton retains a strong sense of local identity and pride, reflected in its well-kept homes, green spaces, and active village life. The village boasts a traditional village hall, often hosting community events and activities, and a local pub, The Greyhound, which serves as a friendly social hub.
Saxton is well-connected. It’s just a short drive to Tadcaster for local shops and amenities, and conveniently located between Leeds and York, offering easy access to both cities via the A64, as well as easy access to the M1 and A1. Families are served by local primary schools and are within reach of well-regarded secondary schools in the wider area.
