Set on about 2.87 acres on the edge of Rainton, this contemporary country house delivers more than 4,800 sq ft of flexible family living. The arrival is dramatic — a vaulted oak-framed reception hall leads into a large, glazed rear elevation that frames far-reaching eastward views over the Hambleton Hills and the Kilburn White Horse. The enormous open-plan living/dining/kitchen is the social heart, with a walk-in pantry, utility and generous circulation for everyday life and entertaining.
The principal suite occupies a generous first-floor position, with dressing room, large bathroom and a Juliet balcony overlooking open countryside. Four further double bedrooms, a separate shower room and family bathroom complete the main house. Above the detached double garage there is a self-contained room with en-suite that currently functions as studio/flat — ideal as a granny annexe, au pair space or private home office.
Practical features include mains services, Hive heating with boiler and underfloor heating, gated gravel driveway and detached double garage. The grounds are extensive — paved patios, raised beds and large lawned areas suitable for family sport or small-scale grazing. The location is rural but accessible, with good local schools and straightforward access to the A1/A19 and Thirsk station services.
Buyers should note the property’s scale brings ongoing maintenance and running costs; council tax sits in a high band, and broadband speeds in the area are slow. The house is well presented and offers immediate occupation, with potential to repurpose the first-floor garage space further if desired.
