Description
Nestled in the heart of the highly coveted village of Kirkby Overblow, this elegant country residence is full of charm, history and individuality. Originally built in 1806 as five alms houses, the property was later converted into one substantial home and has since been sympathetically extended. Today, it combines period features with modern comforts, creating a warm and welcoming home that is truly one of a kind.
Perfectly positioned with far-reaching views across open countryside, the property enjoys a peaceful setting while remaining within easy reach of Harrogate, Wetherby, and excellent transport links to the A61 and A1(M). Kirkby Overblow itself has a vibrant, close-knit community, with an active calendar of events including plays, quiz nights, music concerts and festive celebrations.
Ground Floor
On entering, you are welcomed into a cute entrance hall that flows into the open-plan kitchen and dining room. This beautifully designed space features classic Shaker-style units, a Belfast sink, an AGA, and modern additions including a Quooker tap and waste disposal. A striking stone fireplace adds to the character, making this the heart of the home.
The large yet cosy sitting room, with its solid-fuel inglenook fireplace, is the perfect retreat. Towards the rear of the property there is an impressive reception/games room that offers soaring double-height ceilings and French doors that open onto a sheltered patio/BBQ area and garden, flooding the room with light and seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. A nearby shower room provides the potential to incorporate a sauna.
First Floor and Beyond
Upstairs offers six generously proportioned bedrooms, a separate walk-in wardrobe, a home office and two beautifully finished bathrooms. A spiral staircase leads to the standout feature: a private roof terrace overlooking the village and open fields, an ideal space to relax and unwind. With water and power already in place, it’s ready for an outdoor kitchen, while a smaller sunbathing terrace adds another unique spot to enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
Outside
Externally, the property benefits from dual driveways, a large single garage and the rare advantage of additional parking across the lane - a real bonus in a village setting. The landscaped rear garden features a patio, a built-in barbecue, and two storerooms, one currently fitted as a utility room with plumbing, lighting, and power.
Summary
This is more than just a house, it’s a quirky, characterful home with a fascinating history and a truly welcoming feel. Worth viewing in person, as the roadside view doesn’t do justice to the warmth, space and charm within. With its perfect blend of elegance, practicality and community spirit, this property offers a rare chance to embrace village life in one of the region’s most sought-after locations.
