1 Bondgate, Helmsley - YO62 5BW

Nestled in the heart of the highly desirable market town of Helmsley, this truly exceptional period home offers a rare combination of rich heritage, characterful living space and an established holiday let business generating a generous income stream. Dating back to around 1560 and believed to occupy the site of a former Norman church, the property is steeped in history, with a wealth of original features including ancient exposed timbers, wattle and daub walls, panelled interiors and impressive stone fireplaces.

The beautifully restored accommodation extends to five bedrooms and three bathrooms, with the principal bedroom showcasing magnificent original beams and further bedrooms featuring elegant panelled walls. A choice of reception rooms provides versatile living space, from the cosy sitting room with wood-burning stove to the formal lounge with period mantel and shutters, while the family room centres around a striking stone fireplace. At the heart of the home, the bespoke country kitchen is flooded with natural light from a stunning roof lantern and features an Aga, central island, wine fridge and pantry, creating the perfect space for both everyday family life and entertaining.

Outside, the delightful gardens offer a series of private seating areas surrounded by mature planting, creating a peaceful and secluded setting, while discreet off-street parking is accessed via a rear lane.

Adding further appeal are two unique and successful holiday let accommodations. The self-contained cottage annex offers private access, a vaulted sitting room, kitchen, bathroom and loft bedroom, while the beautifully converted 1887 railway carriage retains many of its original features and provides charming guest accommodation with living space, kitchen and bedroom facilities. Together, these established holiday lets generate an income of approximately £70,000 per year, presenting an exciting lifestyle and business opportunity.

Featured in both Beautiful Homes and Period Living magazines, this remarkable home effortlessly combines centuries of history with modern comfort and style. Situated within walking distance of Helmsley's excellent amenities, independent shops, restaurants and historic attractions, and with the North York Moors National Park on the doorstep, this is a rare opportunity to acquire one of the area's most distinctive and characterful homes.
