Summary - Marston Grange, Tockwith Road, Long Marston YO26 7PL
6 bed 4 bath House
Spacious period home with outbuildings and over two acres near York.
Six double bedrooms across principal house and attic space
Marston Grange is a substantial six-bedroom detached farmhouse set in just over two acres of formal gardens and paddock. Built in 1778 with Victorian additions, the main house offers generous reception rooms, tall ceilings, period fireplaces and a country kitchen with a Rayburn — well suited to a growing family or buyers seeking a lifestyle property close to York and Harrogate.
The property includes more than 1,300 sq ft of outbuildings with planning permission to convert to a two-bedroom annexe and approved extensions to the farmhouse, giving clear scope to increase living space or create ancillary accommodation. The site also provides secure off-street parking and a large garage, plus wide, private grounds ideal for gardens, small-scale equestrian use or recreation.
Buyers should note some practical constraints: heating is oil-fired to radiators, drainage is private, and the original solid-brick walls are assumed to lack insulation — reflected in an EPC rating in the E band. Council tax is high and ongoing maintenance of a large, historic country property can be significant. These factors are typical for a home of this age and scale but important when budgeting.
Overall this is a rare, characterful farmhouse offering flexible potential in a sought-after village location. It will particularly suit families, multi-generational buyers or investors wanting to add value by converting the outbuildings and improving energy performance.
