Description

Nestled in the heart of the sought-after village of Middleton, just two miles west of the vibrant market town of Pickering and on the very edge of the breathtaking North York Moors National Park, this exquisite double-fronted stone-built farmhouse (dating back to 1797) commands an enviable position with delightful views along the main street from the front.

Spanning nearly 3,500 sq ft of versatile, light-filled accommodation across three generous floors (plus the detached home gym), this timeless period home effortlessly blends historic charm with contemporary comfort.

The ground floor offers an inviting flow of living spaces perfect for modern family life: a welcoming reception hallway with exposed timbers, a cosy snug with multi-fuel stove and sash windows, a formal dining room, a spacious sitting room opening via French doors to the rear garden, a further reception room that can be used as a family room or ground floor bedroom, a superb kitchen centred around the iconic Aga, a practical utility room with a walk-in pantry, a convenient ground-floor shower room and a sun room flooded with natural light that leads directly to the rear gardens.

Upstairs, the first floor features a large study ideal for home working, two double bedrooms (one with a feature fireplace), both with individual period charm and character and a luxurious family bathroom complete with a corner bath, separate shower, and bidet.

The second floor provides two further spacious bedrooms, both fitted with skylight windows.

Outside, the property truly shines: beautifully enclosed rear gardens with Indian stone patios, mature lawns, established borders, trees, shrubs, a pond with a water feature, and ample grounds for relaxation.

A wealth of outbuildings enhances the lifestyle appeal — including a detached stone-built home gym fitted with 3.42kw photovoltaics solar panels (fully owned and transferring to new owners), uPVC windows/doors, and an insulated loft space. An insulated, double-glazed timber garden studio with light/power; finally, a large summerhouse, a perfect addition for enjoying the gardens during the summer months.

Additional benefits include mains gas central heating, a water softener, and solar panels contributing to energy efficiency.

Middleton offers a genuine community feel with its pub, village hall, post office, tea rooms and parish church— all within easy reach. Wider amenities, excellent primary and secondary schools, and transport links are just a short walk or bus ride away in Pickering.

A rare opportunity to acquire a characterful, multi-faceted period home with exceptional outdoor facilities. Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate its full potential.
