Summary - Stonecote Farm, Easingwold Road YO61 1LS
5 bed 2 bath Farm
Rare 7.55-acre rural holding with approved barn conversion potential.
Five-bedroom traditional farmhouse with extensive character features
Stonecote Farm is a substantial five-bedroom farmhouse set in about 7.55 acres of pasture and mature grounds, positioned between Stillington and Easingwold with southerly views towards York. The house offers traditional character — exposed beams, a long sitting room with French doors, breakfast room with an AGA, and a gallery landing — and is habitable while also offering scope for modernisation and modest extension subject to consents.
A major value driver is the agricultural outbuildings: a steel portal-framed general purpose building (approx. 90ft x 40ft) and a 90ft x 30ft calf shed. Planning permission (ZB23/02457/MBN) was granted in January 2024 to convert the calf shed into a single detached dwelling with garden and access, creating obvious development potential and income or subdivision options. The property can also be sold as a whole or split into separate plots (subject to conveyancing and any further consents).
Practical points to note: the property uses oil-fired central heating and septic tank drainage, broadband speeds are very slow, and council tax is high (Band G). There is an Agricultural Occupancy Condition restricting occupation of the farmhouse to persons solely or last employed in agriculture or forestry (or dependants), which materially affects buyer eligibility and future marketing. Prospective buyers should verify boundaries, services and planning opportunities; a structural and services inspection is recommended.
