Bentley House is a substantial, recently renovated 4/5 bedroom detached home set in about 0.78 acres of private, walled gardens in the village of Brompton. The accommodation totals roughly 4,000 sq ft across two floors, with a 34ft kitchen/breakfast room, 26ft orangery, generous drawing and family rooms and a principal suite with dressing area and en suite. The layout suits a busy family needing flexible living, home working space and generous storage.
The house has been refurbished throughout, so services are modern and the interiors are light-filled — the orangery’s lantern and multiple French doors/bi-folds bring the garden into daily use. The plot is a major asset: high, mature boundaries, south/west aspects for good sunlight, paved terraces, immaculate lawns and room for a greenhouse or kitchen garden beyond the gated wall. Off-street parking and a double garage add practical convenience.
Practical considerations are set out plainly. The property sits in a small town/town-fringe location with relatively fast broadband and good rail links at Northallerton station, but local crime statistics are above average and council tax is described as quite expensive. The house was built in 1974 — its style is classically Georgian-inspired rather than period Georgian — and while recently renovated, prospective buyers should inspect for age-related items typical of a large 1970s house set in mature grounds.
This home will suit an established family seeking space, privacy and easy access to Northallerton’s amenities, or buyers wanting a substantial turnkey house with scope for personalised landscaping. Viewings will show how the internal flow and extensive garden combine to create a private family compound on the edge of town.
