Fairways, Thornholme, Driffield, YO25 4NN

Fairways is one of those properties that you could easily dismiss at first glance, but what it lacks in curb appeal, it more than makes up for when you take a closer look. Its immaculately presented accommodation extends to over 3,260 sq ft (303 sq m). It includes five bedrooms, three en-suite bathrooms, five reception rooms, a bar/games room, and a fully equipped cinema room.  The outside space is also packed with many features, including the extensive brick set parking area, a double garage, an outdoor kitchen, pergoda covered dining area, a pond, and a log cabin offering additional one-bedroom accommodation and a hot tub deck.  But it doesn't stop there.  Hidden away at the rear of the site is a large commercial building with planning consent for light industrial use. It is perfect for anyone looking to run a business, motor enthusiasts, engineers, or anyone needing storage and workshop space.
