Kilburn House is an imposing five bedroom stone-built detached property, the oldest parts of which we believe date back to the early 1700s, situated on the edge of the sought-after hamlet of Bulmer with uninterrupted views across the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The property is located 7 miles south west of Malton, 15 miles north east of York and is within easy access of the A64 for commuting. The property offers excellent family accommodation and stands in extensive grounds, totalling 5.51 acres (2.23 hectares) or thereabouts. A substantial range of period outbuildings would be suitable for conversion and development, subject to the necessary permissions, and the restored stable block and grass paddock are likely to appeal to those with equestrian interests.
Internally, the property benefits from approximately 2,110 sq. ft. of living accommodation, and retains a number of period features including sliding sash windows, open fireplaces, and picture rails. On the ground floor are three receptions, breakfast kitchen, and pantry. To the first floor are five double bedrooms, each served by two house bathrooms.
Bulmer is arguably North Yorkshire's prettiest hamlet villages with the benefit of the Church of St Andrew, village hall, and the nearby villages of Welburn, Sheriff Hutton, and Terrington offering further amenities including primary schools, public houses, and village stores, wine shop, cafe, bakery, and delicatessen. The Castle Howard Estate is also on the doorstep. Kilburn House is a delightful country residence, which would now benefit from a programme of modernisation and improvement, and offers scope for further development.

Broadband availability and predicted speed
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
