A landmark former coaching inn beautifully refurbished and converted into an excellent five bedroom family residence.
Swan House forms part of the former Grade II listed Swan Hotel, parts of which we understand date back to 1650 with the majority of the property dating from the mid 19th century. Planning permission was obtained in 2015 to convert the property into two highly individual homes of significant proportions with Swan House extending to approximately 3800 sq ft excluding a warren of former wine cellars.
The building has been sympathetically restored using only natural conservation approved products including lime render and lime pointing and has been fully re-wired and now benefits from Timber Wise timber treatment and damp proof membrane throughout with 10 year warranty. The property also benefits from data point sockets in every room fitted with Wi-Fi repeaters and sky sockets. Internally, the accommodation includes spacious lounge with feature bay and new wooden sash windows with acoustic glass which is a feature of the property throughout. There is a separate sitting room and fabulous 34ft4in open plan living dining kitchen with range of integrated appliances and underfloor heating. Engineered solid oak floors are a feature of the ground floor except for the shower room and utility which are tiled. An oak staircase leads up to a gallery landing off which there are two bedrooms with en-suite facilities and three further bedrooms with fitted carpets included and luxury house bathroom. Oak internal doors are fitted throughout the property.
To the outside, the property shares a traditional cobble set entrance through electric timber gates with Indian sandstone cobbled sets extending to and beyond the attached double garage providing parking for several vehicles.
There is a landscaped split level garden with Indian sandstone paving, wrought iron railings and useful outbuilding with shutters ideal for outdoor entertaining or storage space.
The property occupies a prominent elevated position within the village conservation area being well situated for easy access to the A1 north and south bound and the A64 provides direct links to Leeds and York.
