INTRODUCTION

During the current owners’ occupation, this pretty Victorian ‘Old Vicarage’ has been refurbished and modernised to an exacting standard and flows beautifully. This work has included the fitting of a stunning bespoke kitchen with living and dining area, beautiful limestone flooring, Tadcaster Limestone fireplaces, luxurious bathrooms and decoration through out including pieces created by Peter Thompson of York.

The ground floor has an impressive reception hall with grand staircase and access to the principal reception rooms, with the elegant and light filled drawing room overlooking the
Village church of St Mary to the front and the dining room and sitting room overlooking the very private and enclosed garden to the rear. The whole of the ground floor benefits from underfloor heating. The dining room and sitting rooms both boast built in display cabinets and bookshelves by Peter Thompson of York and are light filled and spacious with high ceilings and large windows. The house retains many original features including the pretty ceiling roses, cornicing, panelled doors and working shutters. The main reception rooms have log burners that are set within Tadcaster lime fire places, perfect for the winter months

The bespoke kitchen has everything you would expect in a house of this nature and is perfect for entertaining as well as everyday relaxing and dining! Off the kitchen is a useful utility room and pantry and a wc. There is access to the rear garden from here. The everyday entrance has a cloaks /boot room to the side and there is access from here to the gym and into the swimming pool.

This ‘leisure’ area of the house is fabulous with a well-equipped gym and a beautiful indoor pool with plenty of space around it to relax. There are two shower rooms, changing room, wc and a sauna in this area – so that there is no need to go back into the house!
