Summary - OLD PRISON HOUSE, YORK, COXWOLD YO61 4AD
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Character three-bed with garden and far-reaching countryside views.
Three double bedrooms and two reception rooms, around 1,264 sq ft
A handsome stone-built period house in the heart of Coxwold, this detached three-bedroom home offers generous living space and classic village charm. The layout includes two reception rooms, a dining hall and a well-proportioned kitchen on the ground floor, with three bedrooms and a modern bathroom upstairs — ideal for family living or a countryside base.
Outside, the property benefits from off-road parking and a beautifully manicured rear garden that frames far-reaching views across open countryside to Byland Abbey and the Hambleton Hills. The location on the edge of the North York Moors National Park places local amenities, a pub, tea rooms and recreational facilities within easy reach, with schools and rail connections accessible in nearby towns.
Practical considerations: the EPC is rated E and the house is heated by an oil-fired boiler and radiators, so energy efficiency improvements could be required. The stone walls are likely uninsulated, offering scope for upgrading to reduce running costs and improve comfort. Council tax is noted as expensive, which buyers should factor into ongoing costs.
Overall, this sizeable period home (around 1,264 sq ft) suits a family seeking character, countryside views and a mature garden, or a buyer willing to invest in energy and insulation improvements to unlock long-term comfort and value.
