Beautifully situated lifestyle property in a prime location

Description

Introduction
The sale of Treetops offers a rare opportunity to buy a “lifestyle property” lying in an accessible yet private position in unspoilt countryside. Whilst lying only 2.4 miles miles from central Tadcaster and Sainsbury’s car park and only 2 miles to the A64 trunk road, the property largely comprises of
a beautiful valley overlooked from the house which occupies an elevated position.

The property as a whole extends to 46 acres (18.7ha) and includes the attractive house which was built in 2000 providing almost 3,000 sq ft of well-proportioned and flexible family accommodation. The house is well screened by attractive well landscaped and mature gardens from which there are far reaching views over the land.

There is a good range of buildings for those with equestrian, livestock or general storage requirements plus a well-placed attractive single storey stone faced Barn which previously had consent for a holiday cottage, although the approval has now lapsed.

The land itself is ideal for those with livestock, equestrian or nature and conservation interests including an excellent 17.6 acre meadow on the higher land, complemented by land with high amenity value leading down to the Cock Beck which borders the majority of the eastern boundary of the holding and is dominated by natural reed beds and riverside grazing.
The Stutton Ings SSSI lies within the boundary at the south east corner of the holding.

Please note that the house is subject to an occupancy restriction (see details later) which potential purchasers need to be aware of.

Treetops offers a unique opportunity to buy a “lifestyle property” likely to appeal to those with farming, equestrian or conservation interests. The combination of privacy, the quality of the house and buildings, the mixed land types and landscape quality is likely to appeal to a variety of purchasers who are recommended to register their interest as soon as possible.
