West Grange, Kirkgate, Sherburn in Elmet LS25

Welcome to West Grange — a truly special Victorian home, built in 1879 and meticulously restored to reflect both its original grandeur and modern-day living. This is a rare opportunity to own a home where the beauty of the past has been carefully restored, and the hard work has already been done.

From the moment you arrive, the attention to detail is clear. Set behind electric gates, with a secure and landscaped frontage, this is a home that immediately feels both impressive and private.

Step inside and you’re greeted by a grand entrance hall, high ceilings, intricate coving and beautifully restored original features set the tone. Throughout the home, the original character has been carefully preserved and enhanced, including refurbished cornicing, restored fireplaces and the stunning original stained-glass window, now fully re-leaded and set within a bespoke accoya frame.

The level of investment here is significant. All windows have been replaced with bespoke accoya wood sash windows combining traditional aesthetics with modern performance. Externally, the property has been comprehensively improved, including full repointing to the rear of the house, repair and restoration of the roof, ridge tiles and lead valleys, refurbished guttering, and landscaped gardens to all sides. Electric gates, CCTV and security lighting have also been installed, creating a home that feels both elegant and secure.

The kitchen is both stylish and practical, featuring quality cabinetry, a Rangemaster oven, new appliances including a recently installed dishwasher and integrated fridge, and updated fittings. A separate utility room adds further convenience, with its own access.

The living spaces are equally impressive. The main reception room is bright and elegant, centred around a high-output gas log burner, while the snug offers a more relaxed feel with a multi-fuel stove and exposed brick fireplace, perfect for cosy evenings.

Upstairs, the character continues.  As you make your way upstairs, the stunning stained-glass window creates a real wow moment with light pouring through and casting beautiful colours across the walls. There are three generous double bedrooms, including a principal suite with en-suite, alongside a stunning main bathroom. This has been completely reconfigured and upgraded, now featuring Burlington fittings, a roll-top bath, separate shower, decorative radiator and beautiful finishes throughout.

Behind the scenes, the home has been brought fully up to modern standards. A new fuse board has been installed, the heating system upgraded with a commercial-grade pump to improve efficiency across the property, and the boiler has been regularly serviced with full certification. The EPC rating has improved significantly as a result of these works, reflecting the care and investment made.

And it’s not just the house - it’s the story behind it.

“I fell in love with West Grange the moment I saw the stained-glass window… it was tired and in need of everything, but I could see what it could become. Every evening and weekend has gone into bringing it back to life -and now it’s a home full of warmth, character and so much love.”

Outside, the gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped to create a series of spaces to enjoy, including a private walled rear garden  perfect for entertaining or relaxing.
