Flaxton, York

Located in the pretty and ever-popular village of Flaxton, to the north of York, is this picturesque, postcard-perfect detached home. Showcasing a quintessentially English design with a beautifully balanced and symmetrical façade, properties of this character and charm rarely come to market. Set back from the road and enjoying open views across surrounding countryside, this much-loved home has been in the same ownership for over half a century and has been meticulously maintained throughout. Offered with no onward chain, it now presents a wonderful opportunity for the next owners to make it their own, with scope for further personalisation.

Internally, the property opens into a welcoming entrance hall, which provides access to two spacious reception rooms. The principal living room is positioned to the right and benefits from dual-aspect windows, creating a light and airy feel while highlighting features such as the original fireplace. Across the hall, the dining room enjoys equally pleasant views over the front garden and offers ample space for a range of furnishings, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. From here, a second hallway leads to a ground floor shower room and into the charming cottage-style kitchen breakfast room at the rear. Flooded with natural light from expansive windows, the kitchen features traditional shaker-style wall and base units, providing generous storage and worktop space.

To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from extensive built-in storage. All bedrooms are served by a family bathroom.

Externally, the property continues to impress. To the front is a neatly enclosed garden with traditional iron railings and a pathway leading to the entrance. To the rear lies a deceptively large garden, enclosed by brick boundaries and predominantly laid to lawn, complemented by a delightful courtyard area with intricate paving, thoughtfully designed by the previous owner.

A single garage sits to the rear, featuring a vaulted roofline which offers excellent storage potential or scope for conversion, alongside a useful garden room. A driveway provides off-street parking and leads to the garage, with a right of way in place for the neighbouring property.

In summary, this is a truly charming and characterful home set within a sought-after village location, offering generous accommodation, beautiful surroundings, and exciting potential. Offered with no onward chain, early viewing is highly recommended.

Anti-Money Laundering Compliance - We are legally required to conduct Anti Money Laundering checks on all purchasers, sellers, and giftors. These checks become mandatory when a seller accepts a purchaser's offer on a property. Anti-Money Laundering checks are valid for 6 months from the date they are completed. If your purchase does not proceed and you make an offer on another property more than 6 months later, or if your checks are more than 6 months old when making a new offer, you will need to complete and pay for new checks. We use a partner supplier MoveButler, to carry out these checks on our behalf. They will contact you directly once your offer has been accepted (subject to contract) to complete the electronic verification process securely. There is a non-refundable charge of £30 + VAT per purchaser and per giftor for these checks.. This fee must be paid before we can issue a memorandum of sale to solicitors and is non-refundable under any circumstances. Ashtons receive a portion of this fee from MoveButler as compensation for facilitating these checks and our administrative role in the compliance process.
