Thornton Heights, Thornton le Dale

A beautifully specified contemporary house, constructed by a highly regarded local builder as part of a small development of just 14, high-quality homes. Located in a prime position on the approach to Thornton Heights, with an open view over farmland and quietly located on the fringes of this sought after village yet only a short walk to the centre, with its pretty village green, edged by shops, pubs and cafes.
Originally built by the developer for their own occupation, it naturally carries an exceptionally high level of specification and a unique design with an open flow of accommodation. 1 Thornton Heights combines the aesthetics of the traditional with the credentials of a contemporary home, scoring a high ‘B’ for energy efficiency with underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, excellent levels of insulation, EV car charging facilities and a highly efficient central heating system, all amounting to a substantial family home with comparatively reasonable running costs.
The overall floor area extends to approximately 2,815sq.ft and in brief comprises:  Central entrance hall with oak staircase, coats area and a separate cloakroom. Front facing study and a large, triple aspect sitting room with bifold doors opening out onto the stone flagged terrace at the rear. The back wing of the house provides a superb, open plan area, ideal for entertaining with a large dining area opening round to the kitchen with a separate living area to the far end. Two sets of bifold doors open out onto the terrace, creating an easy flow of indoor and outdoor space. Adjoining is a walk-in pantry and a separate utility room. There are five bedrooms over the top two floors. To the front is a large master suite with bedroom, dressing room and en-suite bathroom. Two further double bedrooms with en-suite shower rooms lie on the first floor. On the top floor are two further bedrooms, one enjoying a lovely view southwards, and the main house shower room.
 Outside are landscaped garden and grounds to all sides, plenty of private parking for any number of vehicles and separate detached garage.
 LOCATION One of the main attractions of the property is the situation, being located within Thornton le Dale, one of North Yorkshire’s most picturesque and popular National Park Villages. The village is centred around Thornton Beck and the Green, clustered around which are a number of small independent shops and eateries, including two public houses and bistro. Thornton le Dale is situated approximately two miles east of the popular market town of Pickering and eight miles north of Malton and enjoys easy access to the A64 providing links to the wider metropolitan area.  Malton benefits from a train station with regular services to the main line station of York, where there are direct services to London, Leeds & Edinburgh.
