Set privately on Mill Garth Park, this upgraded Advent Bamburgh lodge sits on a larger-than-average plot with extended driveway and wraparound timber decking. Designed for permanent, over-50s residency, the layout includes a dual-aspect lounge/diner, modern fitted kitchen, separate utility room and a flexible study — practical for hobbies or a home office. Mature planting and a Tree Preservation Order add privacy and enduring character to the garden.
Practical upgrades include an underground rainwater harvesting tank and thoughtful storage throughout. The principal bedroom benefits from a bay window, dressing area and en-suite; the second double has a full wall of fitted wardrobes and access to the main shower room. The lodge’s layout and plot size make it a comfortable, low-maintenance option for downsizers seeking space and light in a semi-rural setting.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold, over-50s, permanent-residence development with site rules: a monthly pitch fee of £250, an average annual service charge of £3,000, and 10% of the sale price payable to the park owner on sale. Letting or holiday use is prohibited. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal average — reasonable for rural life but important if remote connectivity is crucial.
Overall, this well-maintained lodge offers a rare combination of generous outdoor space, upgraded utilities, and a calm village location with good access into York. It suits retired or semi-retired buyers seeking community, manageable maintenance, and countryside living close to amenities and riverside walks.
