Set on a very large private plot on the edge of Scarcroft village, this substantial barn-conversion offers spacious family living with strong countryside character. The home extends to about 2,749 sqft with four bedrooms, each served by modern en-suite facilities, and generous principal rooms arranged around a formal dining hallway.
The breakfast kitchen retains exposed timber beams and solid wood cupboards, opening via French doors to a sunny south-facing stone terrace and landscaped gardens — ideal for family entertaining and outdoor play. A formal sitting room with a gas fireplace, a family room overlooking the rear garden and an adjoining double garage complete the practical layout for everyday life.
Practical points are straightforward: the property is freehold, approached by a private driveway and benefits from excellent mobile signal, minimal flood risk and proximity to sought-after local schools including Grammar School at Leeds. However, broadband speeds are very slow, and council tax is described as quite expensive; the wider area records above-average crime levels compared with neighbouring locations.
This home suits buyers seeking a substantial, characterful family house in a peaceful rural setting with excellent road links into Leeds and beyond. It’s presented with many original features and modern technology, but buyers should allow for slower internet connectivity and the higher running costs associated with the location and council tax banding.
