EXQUISITE GRADE II LISTED GEORGIAN FARM HOUSE

A truly exquisite Grade II listed Georgian Farmhouse, located in the picturesque North Yorkshire village of Rainton. The house has undergone impressive renovations by the current owners and offers a perfect blend of stylish modern living whilst still preserving the original charm and character of the property.

The house has been very much designed to focus on family living, with one of the improvements being the creation of an open plan kitchen-dining area, featuring a wall of patio doors leading to the rear garden. The shaker style kitchen offers ample storage, a large island unit and a Lacanche Range Cooker. A log burning stove in the dining area makes for an inviting space at any time of the day. Adjoining the kitchen is a side entrance porch, substantial utility/boot room and WC.

The remaining reception rooms have been cleverly designed to create two multi-use and functional spaces. The first of which is a very relaxed, family orientated space, making for a superb teenage hang out. The second reception room exerts sophistication and with a secondary log burner, offers a relaxing retreat for cozy evenings.

To the first floor are four double bedrooms; one served by an en-suite bathroom, where another has built in wardrobes and high ceilings that highlight the original timber beams. The family bathroom features a four piece suite, including a large walk in shower and original cast iron bath.

Externally, a separate annex with shower room presents additional space for a wide range of uses. Currently used as a beauty studio, the space could also serve as a gym, home office, or holiday let, amongst other things. A good sized walled garden, laid mainly to lawn, offers a large patio area for alfresco entertaining and boasts a variety of trees and plants, including wisteria vines, which beautifully frame the rear of the house. The shared driveway provides 3 parking spaces, garage and log store.
