Stonecote Farm is a substantial five-bedroom farmhouse set in about 7.55 acres with far-reaching southerly views towards York. The house (approx. 2,700 sq ft) sits with extensive outbuildings including a 90ft x 40ft steel general-purpose building and a 90ft x 30ft calf shed with planning permission (granted January 2024) for conversion to a single dwelling. The setting offers immediate privacy, mature lawns, specimen trees and versatile outside space for gardens, paddocks or further development.
The property presents genuine development potential: the calf shed has permission for residential change of use and there is scope to seek further consents for other buildings or extensions (subject to planning). It can be purchased as a whole or considered in separate plots, which may suit an owner-occupier who wants additional income or an investor/developer seeking a country conversion project.
Practical considerations are clear and important. The house has oil-fired central heating and septic tank drainage; broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is average. There is an agricultural occupancy clause restricting who may live in the farmhouse and the property is in Council Tax Band G, so running costs should be factored in. No onward chain is stated, and purchasers should verify boundaries, services and potential planning uses before offer.
