Freehold
Description
Ludley House is a handsome, Seventeenth Century village house constructed of solid stone walls beneath a pantile roof. The property has been in the ownership of the same family for several generations and was comprehensively renovated by the current owners’ parents in 1995, to include items such as damp proofing, re-wiring, re-plumbing and re-plastering. More recently, both the front and rear doors as well as a number of windows have been replaced with double-glazed units in accoya wood.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors and amounts to approximately 1,150sq.ft. In brief it comprises entrance hall, sitting room with open fire, dining room, kitchen diner with AGA, rear lobby, guest cloakroom, and a utility room. To the first floor there are three bedrooms and a shower room. The rear elevation of the house enjoys a delightful, southerly aspect and there is plenty of room to extend, if required (subject to any appropriate consents).
The property occupies a generously proportioned plot of almost one quarter of an acre, positioned on the corner of East End and Station Road. It enjoys well-established and surprisingly private gardens, ample parking, garden store, and a former garage (more recently adapted as a library space). A recently constructed studio/garden room is a superb addition and could be utilised in a variety of ways.
Ampleforth is one of North Yorkshire’s best-loved villages. Nestled into a hillside, it sits within particularly attractive countryside between the North York Moors National Park and the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village features an attractive mix of period, stone houses and benefits from a surprising number of amenities including village shop and post office, two good pubs, a coffee shop, Doctor’s surgery, a primary school and Ampleforth College. The Georgian market town of Helmsley is only 4 miles away and benefits from a wide range of facilities. The other three Ryedale market towns are all within an easy drive and the City of York is some 19 miles south.

The gardens lie entirely to the rear of the house, enjoying considerable privacy, a glorious, south-facing aspect, and are made up of extensive lawn, well-stocked shrub borders and a several mature trees.
