The Property
Purplebricks are privileged to offer for sale this detached family-sized house in the conservation area of High Ackworth near Ackworth Quaker School.

Priory House is a three-storey Georgian house which was built using Ackworth sandstone in 1770 and was fully renovated in 2024. It occupies a bold, impressive plot at the entrance to Priory Cottage estate and is set within an exclusive courtyard setting.

The house is south facing and has lots of natural daylight. Offering flexible and versatile living space, the accommodation is arranged over three floors and boasts spacious, well-appointed rooms, each one tastefully decorated in Farrow & Ball heritage colours.

Entering from the main entrance, you will be greeted by an inviting entrance hall with a cast-iron radiator and solid-brass light fittings. The entrance hall leads to two reception rooms with full-height bay windows. The second lounge leads to the fourth bedroom, which could also be a study.

Directly forward from the entrance hall there is access to the luxurious main bathroom with a freestanding bath and a walk-in shower, and a rear staircase to the third bedroom on the second floor.

The principal staircase from the entrance hall provides access to the landing, two bedrooms and a second bathroom on the second floor.

On the ground floor there is a kitchen, pantry room, dining room with feature barrelled stone ceiling and wine cellar. The kitchen has a second entrance door, which provides access to a rear garden, storage room and private parking for 4 cars.

This fine residence is steeped in history and has been recently meticulously refurbished throughout in order to restore this Georgian house to its former glory. All rooms have been internally insulated. There is new solid oak flooring throughout the first and second floors; and limestone flooring throughout the ground floor and in the main bathroom. The house has been fully re-wired and new plumbing installed throughout.

Viewings booked 24/7.
