Gower Hall Barn,Foston,YORK,YO60 7QD
YO60 7QD
5 bed 5 bath Detached
Versatile 5-bed estate with annexe and 3.5-acre grounds near York.
Over 5,300 sq ft living space with high ceilings and oak beams
Set within 3.5 acres and reached by a gated 500-metre drive, this architect-designed barn conversion balances dramatic scale with thoughtful detailing. The main house offers over 5,300 sq ft of living space, a striking 70ft oak and glass walkway, and multiple reception rooms that suit family life, entertaining, or flexible working. High ceilings, original oak beams and stone finishes give authentic character throughout.
Five generous double bedrooms all have en-suite facilities, and a self-contained annexe benefits from planning consent for holiday letting — ideal for multi-generational use or additional income. The bespoke oak kitchen with stone worktops, butler’s pantry and bifold doors to the garden support large-scale entertaining, while separate rooms include a gym, study and media/library spaces.
Comfort and sustainability are built in: underfloor heating is provided by a ground-source heat pump, CCTV and Cat 6 cabling are fitted, and solar preparation is in place. Practical notes include integral double garage, garden store and extensive landscaped grounds that will require ongoing maintenance given their scale.
Important considerations: the property sits in a very private, remote hamlet location which brings tranquillity but means daily amenities are a drive away. Broadband speeds are currently slow — suitable for many uses but potential buyers should check specific connectivity needs. The long gated drive and large plot also bring higher upkeep responsibilities and running costs despite energy-efficient systems.
