Horsa Way, Dishforth, Thirsk

A substantial and adaptable family home offering extensive accommodation across three floors, with the flexibility to provide up to six bedrooms if required. The property offers generous living space, has been upgraded in key areas, and benefits from landscaped gardens and a garage. Positioned within the catchment area for Ripon Grammar School and with excellent access to the A1(M) and nearby rail links, this is a practical choice for families and commuters alike. Viewing is highly recommended.

The Property - On entry, a spacious reception hall sets the tone and connects to the majority of the ground floor accommodation, with a staircase rising through the house. The hall is finished with polished floor tiles and includes useful under-stairs storage and a cloakroom/WC.

The sitting room sits to the front of the property and comfortably accommodates a large suite. A full-height box bay window forms the focal point, drawing in good natural light and giving the room a bright, open feel.

To the rear, the living kitchen is the main day-to-day space. Fitted with a contemporary range of base and wall units, it offers excellent storage, complemented by excellent counter top workspace and integrated appliances. A central island provides additional preparation space and informal seating, while also creating a natural divide between the kitchen and seating area. There is ample space for a dining table, and the current owners have incorporated a sofa, making this a practical and sociable room. Double doors open onto the garden, and a separate utility room sits just off the kitchen, with matching units and plumbing for appliances.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom is generous in size and leads through to a dressing area with wall-to-wall fitted wardrobes. The en suite shower room includes a walk-in shower, WC and wash hand basin set within a modern vanity unit, finished with textured wall tiling. A further double bedroom on this floor is currently arranged with an additional area used as a study space; with minimal alteration, this could serve as a separate bedroom or home office if required. The main house bathroom has been upgraded and completes this level.

The second floor provides further flexibility. There is a large double bedroom with its own dressing area and en suite shower room, along with two additional double bedrooms and a substantial airing cupboard.

Externally, the front garden is manageable, with a pathway leading to the entrance. To the side, an extended driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a single garage with up-and-over door and limited overhead storage. The rear garden has been landscaped to create several seating areas alongside manageable lawned sections, with access to both sides of the property.
