Spacious family living with direct access to open fields.
Five bedrooms including two en suites and family bathroom
Set on a generous 0.15-acre plot in a quiet cul-de-sac, this five-bedroom detached house is arranged for flexible family living and entertaining. The home extends to around 2,067–2,201 sq.ft of accommodation, with a large open-plan kitchen/dining area added in 2021 that opens via bi-fold doors onto a south-facing garden and raised decking. The principal and guest suites both have en-suite facilities and enjoy elevated, uninterrupted views over open fields and Skipwith Common.
The house combines recent bespoke fittings with practical family spaces: a bespoke shaker-style kitchen with quartz surfaces and integrated appliances, a useful utility room, a generous sitting room plus a snug, and a galleried landing serving five bedrooms. Double glazing and cavity-wall insulation (assumed) help with warmth, while broadband speeds are reported as fast (Quickline fibre up to 200 Mbps).
Practical considerations include oil-fired central heating and manual twin garage doors; these are functional but may be less convenient or more expensive than gas or mains-heated alternatives. Council Tax is Band F, which should be factored into running costs. The property is freehold, on a modern development of just four houses, and is provided with mains electricity, water and sewerage.
For families the location is appealing: very low local crime, good primary schools nearby, easy access to open countryside and village amenities, plus direct bus links into York and several nearby railway stations. The plot’s direct access to fields and Skipwith Common is a strong lifestyle asset for outdoor family life and regular walks.
