Wath Hall is an elegant Georgian country house offering generous family accommodation across approximately 4,786 sq ft. The principal residence has been thoughtfully modernised while retaining high ceilings, sash and bay windows, feature fireplaces and deep skirtings — character features that suit a buyer seeking substantial period living in the Vale of Pickering. The house sits in well-maintained, south-facing gardens with long views to the Wolds and fully enclosed grounds ideal for children and pets.
The property includes three reception rooms, a conservatory, study, modern fitted kitchen with Aga and utility, plus five bedrooms and five bathrooms. The principal suite includes a dressing room and two bathrooms; three further bedrooms benefit from en suite facilities, making the layout especially suitable for multigenerational families or regular guests. There is scope to create a one-bedroom annexe from the adjoining accommodation, though that area requires a degree of modernisation.
Outside, the plot extends to about 3.06 acres and includes two enclosed paddocks with field shelters and water supply — useful for small-scale equestrian use, livestock or hobby farming. A public footpath runs through the paddocks and terminates in the north-eastern corner of the eastern paddock; purchasers should be aware of this recorded right of way. A further adjoining parcel of about 5.61 acres is available separately by negotiation.
Practical points: the house uses oil-fired boiler heating and benefits from double glazing installed post-2002, but the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated and the EPC is rated D. Broadband speeds are very slow in the hamlet and council tax is described as quite expensive. Flood risk is low and the location gives convenient road and rail access to Malton and Pickering.
