South View is a substantial c.1700 detached character property set within approximately three acres, offered to buyers seeking land and outbuilding potential. The house retains period features — exposed beams, an open fireplace and a large ‘L’-shaped living room with French doors — while presenting a clear opportunity to modernise throughout.
The plot includes a brick range of outbuildings: granary over two stables, additional stables/storage rooms, a double garage and an open barn, plus paddocks beyond gated access. These buildings and the extensive grounds make the site especially suitable for equestrian or small‑holding use, or for conversion/repurposing subject to consents.
The accommodation comprises a generous entrance hall, dining room, galley kitchen with pantry, and four double bedrooms served by a single house bathroom. Some practical positives are recent sealed‑unit double glazing and a mains‑gas combi boiler reportedly 2–3 years old, but the property overall requires complete renovation to modern living standards.
Buyers should note material drawbacks plainly: the home needs comprehensive updating and renovation, the EPC rating is E, council tax is described as quite expensive, and local recorded crime is above average. The house is freehold, has generous parking including a garage, and is about 3.5 miles from York city centre, offering easy access to schools and city amenities.
