Millfield House is a substantial, modern detached home of about 4,000 sq ft set in c.3 acres of meadow, formal gardens and private woodland on the edge of Haxby. Built in 2006, the house offers flexible accommodation over three floors including two large reception rooms, a bespoke kitchen–family room, conservatory and underfloor heating to the ground floor. The primary suite includes a dressing room and en suite; the second-floor arrangement already functions as a largely self-contained apartment if separate living is required.
The grounds are a major asset: mature planting, a meadow and c.0.7 acre of private woodland provide excellent privacy and countryside views. A substantial agricultural barn (almost 600 sq ft) and an additional outbuilding give useful storage or workshop space and potential for conversion subject to planning. Planning consent has also been granted on the site for an additional residential property, creating genuine development and intergenerational-living possibilities.
Practical benefits include a gated driveway with plentiful parking, a double garage, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and easy walking access to Haxby’s shops, schools and services. York city centre and the A64 are quickly reached by car, and a new nearby rail station is planned.
Notable negatives that buyers should be aware of: council tax is described as quite expensive, and any change of use or conversion of the barn or outbuildings would require planning and building‑regulation approvals (conversion STP). The property is large and may require ongoing maintenance typical of substantial houses and grounds.
