Outside - To the front, the property is approached via a gravelled driveway off Malton Road, bordered by timber fencing and providing ample parking for multiple vehicles and including two car ports. The front garden is principally laid to lawn, with a paved pathway leading to the entrance door. To the rear lies an extensive and mature plot, gravelled driveway area enclosed by timber fencing, which provides access to a range of storage barns and sheds. A generous paved south facing terrace extends directly from the rear of the house, creating an excellent space for outdoor entertaining, enhanced by a pergola and a number of architectural features. Adjacent to this are raised beds and a paved pathway leading onto the main lawn. A sunken LPG tank is discreetly positioned near the patio. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn and interspersed with a wealth of established and younger trees, including a section arranged as an orchard. A fenced enclosure offers flexibility for uses such as keeping chickens or a vegetable garden. A tree-lined walkway of silver birch leads through to the central section of the plot, where a collection of mature trees and hedgerow provides a natural division between the formal garden and the wider grounds. Pathways run through this area, opening out onto the remainder of the land, which is again principally laid to grass and enclosed by post-and-wire fencing, with mature hedging and trees defining the boundaries. This final section offers excellent potential to be utilised as a paddock, ideal for grazing or equestrian use if required.

Plans are available on the official website or at request from the agent.
