Birch House, Riplingham Road, Skidby

Part Exchange considered. Very deceptively spacious and luxurious bespoke new build property.

This exceptional detached residence is a showcase of the quality synonymous with Swanhome Developments, an award-winning local builder with over 40 years of expertise. Renowned for their craftsmanship and personal service, this family-owned firm focuses on creating bespoke homes of true distinction.

As one of only two high-specification properties in this exclusive development, the home combines timeless external styling with contemporary, intelligently designed interiors. Arranged over three storeys, the accommodation features three reception rooms—including a magnificent open-plan living kitchen—five bedrooms, and four luxury bathrooms. Each home is set within an expansive plot, offering generous private gardens, ample parking, and garaging.

Location - The two properties are located on a fabulous, established, garden plot which is situated on the north side of Riplingham Road, a cul-de-sac on the western side of the village of Skidby. Tucked away and accessed via a long drive, this peaceful location is slightly inclined on one of the shallow chalkland wolds which the village occupies.

Skidby is a sought after village situated in the rolling countryside on the edge of the Yorkshire Wolds, lying just off the A164 which links Beverley with the Humber Bridge and the M62. The location provides a convenient base to access the amenities of Cottingham, Beverley and West Hull. Skidby has its own Church of England Primary School which is rated Good in the latest Ofsted inspection and also lies in the catchment area of Cottingham High School and Sixth Form Cottingham, also rated Good. Private schooling can be found nearby at Tranby in Anlaby or Hymers in Hull.
