Description

Believed to date from the 1860s and once Long Marston’s village Post Office, Fairfax Cottage is a beautifully reimagined four-bedroom detached home, combining period character with an exceptional contemporary finish.

Comprehensively renovated inside and out, the property was effectively taken back to brick and transformed with a clear emphasis on quality and craftsmanship. Original oak beams and exposed brickwork sit comfortably alongside sophisticated modern interiors, with attractive countryside views providing the backdrop.

At the heart of the home is an impressive Shaker-style kitchen with quartz worktops, central island, Belfast sink, brass fittings and integrated appliances. Travertine flooring and exposed beams add warmth, while the adjoining dining area opens outside through French doors. The separate living room is wonderfully atmospheric, with deep green tones, exposed beams and a striking brick fireplace with log burner. A fitted utility room and downstairs WC complete the ground floor.

Upstairs are four bedrooms and a beautifully finished bathroom featuring deep green glazed tiles, porcelain detailing and brass fittings.

The renovation has been extensive, including a complete rewire, new plumbing, boiler, radiators, insulated subfloor, windows, external doors, render and flooring, alongside solid oak internal doors, landscaping, renewed fencing, security system and EV charging point.

Long Marston is regarded as one of the area’s premium villages, combining a genuine countryside setting with excellent accessibility. The village offers a primary school, village hall, recreation ground and local pub, while road and bus connections provide convenient access towards York, Wetherby and Leeds.

A distinctive period home in a highly desirable village setting, offering history and character without compromising on the quality and convenience of modern living.

Compliance - Agents are required by law to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all those buying a property. We outsource the initial checks to a partner supplier who will contact you once you have had an offer accepted on a property you wish to buy. The cost of these checks is £40 + VAT per person. This is a non-refundable fee. These charges cover the cost of obtaining relevant data, any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid, and the checks completed in advance of the office issuing a memorandum of sale on the property you would like to buy.

Industry affiliations:

Hunters started in 1992, founded on the firm principles of excellent customer service, pro-activity and achieving the best possible results for our customers. These principles still stand firm and we are today one of the UK's leading estate agents with over 180 branches throughout the country. Our ambition is to become the UK's favourite estate agent and by keeping the customer at the very heart of our business, we firmly believe we can achieve this.

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT TO OTHER AGENTS?

· We are an independently run company

Hunters is principally owned and run by the people who work in the company. The vast majority of our offices are run by independent estate agents who are experts within their own local area and who benefit from being part of the Hunters national network. The combination of great local knowledge backed up by a strong national brand and marketing adds real value for our customers.

· We have trained estate agents

Excellent people achieve excellent results and our agents are offered full training through the Hunters Training Academy. Our learning programmes are endorsed by NAEA and ARLA and our agents work to professional standards and ethics.

· We have happy and satisfied customers!

We continuously carry out Customer Care follow up calls to ensure that we always deliver on our promises and when we make a mistake, we put it right. Our survey results* show a customer satisfaction rating of 96% - significantly above the national average for our industry.

We believe we work harder than any other agent to get you to where you want to be, whether you are selling or letting your property. Our marketing strategy is based on a very simple principle - the more people we can interested in your property, the better price we are going to get for you.

To do this, we advertise our properties within the local area, across the region and throughout our nationwide Hunters network. Our properties are marketed on hunters.com as well as the UK's major property websites ensuring maximum exposure to potential buyers, tenants and investors.

Aside from residential sales and lettings, we also have a proven track record and knowledge in Property Auctions, managing investment portfolios and Buy-to-Let, Residential Block Management, Conveyancing, Survey as well as Land and New Homes developments.
