Summary - THE GABLES, 2, CHURCH LANE YO32 5XU
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Almost 0.45-acre plot with open countryside views
Set on almost half an acre on the edge of Strensall, this substantial three-bedroom detached house offers spacious family living with open countryside views. The extended layout includes multiple reception rooms, a conservatory, dining kitchen with AGA, garden room and useful utility and boot rooms—ideal for everyday family life and flexible working from home.
Outside, a gated carriage driveway, generous parking, triple carport and mature landscaped gardens provide excellent outdoor space and privacy. A former blacksmith’s forge on the plot currently functions as ancillary accommodation/home office and could be adapted to a guest suite or annexe (subject to planning), presenting scope for annexe living or small development potential.
Buyers should note material issues: the property sits in a high flood-risk area and council tax is described as expensive. The original fabric dates from the 1970s with mid-1990s extensions; cavity walls are assumed to be uninsulated and the double-glazing install date is unknown. These factors may require investment to modernise, improve thermal performance and mitigate flood risk.
This home will suit families seeking space, countryside outlook and outbuildings with potential, as well as buyers prepared to carry out targeted upgrades or explore annexe/redevelopment options (subject to consents). The village location offers good local amenities and transport links into York while retaining a rural aspect.
