Everingham, York

BIRCH LODGE This spacious, designed family home offers the perfect balance of modern living and timeless charm, making it an ideal space for both everyday family life and entertaining. Whether hosting gatherings in the large open-plan living areas, or enjoying quiet moments in the summer room-turned-office, the house is designed to provide a functional and comfortable environment all year round.

The property sat within an impressive plot, positioned well back from the road, is approached along a pleasant drive, leading to a keypad entry gate and access to a circular gravelled frontage. There is ample parking for several vehicles and an electric charging point.

It is only when you walk through the front door that you will get a true sense and appreciation for the quality of the finish and workmanship that has gone in to this individual home.

A hand-crafted oak entrance door opens into a spacious hall with a glass and oak stairs and a guest cloakroom. Leading through into a lovely formal sitting room with a log burner. Further rooms off the hallway include a dining room with wall mounted contemporary Bioethanol fire and access to a family sun room, presently hosting a home office.

A feature of the property is the beautiful breakfast kitchen which is spacious enough to provide another family seating or dining area. It comes with underfloor heating, an array of floor and wall mounted units and an impressive three mid-level NEFF single ovens. The high-quality quartz preparation surfaces and matching central island with induction hob and breakfast seating section complete this space.

Glazed bi-fold doors open out onto a lovely terrace overlooking the private rear garden with lawn and gravelled area coupled with a striking monkey puzzle tree and covered entertaining space. The surrounding birch and fir trees create a secluded, peaceful setting perfect for unwinding on those warm summer evenings.

The first-floor light and spacious landing leads you to a magnificent master bedroom with Juliet balcony, generous dressing area, previously a bedroom, and impressive ensuite. There are three further bedrooms one of which has the benefit of an ensuite and a generously sized family bathroom with bath and shower cubicle.

The unique location of the home is another standout feature. It's situated equidistant from two popular market towns, and offers easy access to main cities via nearby roads, making commuting a breeze. The village itself is a hidden gem, with friendly neighbours and a strong sense of community. Enjoy a 15-minute walk to Coffee and Co in Bielby, or take in the beauty of the local woods for longer walks on a Sunday morning. The village hall hosts regular social events like quiz nights, coffee mornings, and beer tastings, providing a welcoming environment where everyone feels at home.

For families, there are plenty of activities nearby, from local pumpkin picking in October to strolls in Burnby Hall Gardens in Pocklington or exploring the Wolds with its endless walking trails and traditional pubs. Excellent local schools, including Pocklington Grammar School, Woldgate College, and nearby primary schools and nurseries, ensure a great education for children of all ages.

The potential for future development is also an exciting prospect. There's ample space to add a double or triple oak-framed garage, which could complement the current office and provide additional storage or workspace.

This is not just a house; it's a family home with a modern approach to living. It offers both the space for growing families and the warmth of a welcoming, connected community. Whether you're looking for a tranquil retreat or a place to entertain, this property offers the best of both worlds.
