Summary - THE OLD RECTORY CHURCH LANE FRIDAYTHORPE DRIFFIELD YO25 9RU
6 bed 4 bath Detached
Large renovated rectory with new extensions, outbuildings and over an acre of garden..
Nearly 5,100ft² of versatile living space
An impressive former Victorian rectory with nearly 5,100ft2 of living space, The Old Rectory combines 19th-century character with a striking recent transformation. In 2024 major works added a large vaulted living-room extension, a premium family dining kitchen, boot room and utility, all fitted with high-spec finishes, oak parquet floors and underfloor heating to the new areas. Those extensions are served by an air‑source heat pump and largely triple‑glazed fittings, improving comfort and running costs for the modern parts of the house.
Set in just over an acre of established gardens on the edge of Fridaythorpe, the property is aimed at families or multi‑generational homeowners seeking space and rural privacy. The house offers six substantial bedrooms (two en‑suite), a loft room, library, wine cellar, multiple reception rooms and extensive outbuildings including a barn with a bar, gym/office and greenhouse — useful for home working, leisure or ancillary accommodation.
Buyers should note material facts alongside the positives: the remainder of the original house is still heated from an oil boiler system (new extensions use the air‑source heat pump), the overall EPC is D, drainage is private and council tax is described as quite expensive. Broadband is average for the area. The property is newly renovated in key areas but, as a substantial Victorian house, ongoing maintenance and traditional fabric considerations remain. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, finishes and the extensive grounds.
