Perched above the North York Moors, this Georgian stone manor occupies a huge plot (approx six-and-a-half acres) and extends to around 8,026 sq ft across multiple storeys. The principal house offers six double bedrooms, tall ceilings, large reception rooms and abundant natural light through arched sash windows. A self-contained annexe and separate holiday cottages add versatile accommodation and proven income potential, while extensive landscaped gardens, wildflower meadows and equestrian facilities complete the rural picture.
The house retains strong period character — stone walls, high corniced ceilings and generous room proportions — but is an older build (pre-1900) and shows trade-offs for authenticity. External walls are likely uninsulated stone, the main heating is oil-fired boiler and radiators, and some modernisation should be expected if you require contemporary efficiency standards. There is double glazing but install date is unknown.
Practicalities to note: the cottages drain to a septic tank while the main house uses mains drainage; the property benefits from private off-street parking and a legal right of way over the neighbouring Coach House for road access. Council Tax is high (Band G) and running costs (oil fuel, large grounds, estate upkeep) will be material. Mobile signal is excellent; broadband is average for a rural location.
This home will suit buyers seeking a substantial country estate with character and income potential — families wanting space, second-home buyers, or investors interested in holiday-let revenue. It will not be ideal for purchasers needing a turnkey, energy-efficient home without further expenditure; some fabric upgrades and ongoing maintenance are likely to be required.
