5 bedroom detached house

A substantial five bedroom period family home in a serene village of North Yorkshire

Description

This superb stone built village house has been significantly extended and undergone a recent programme of refurbishment creating a versatile home, with flexible accommodation, finished to a very high standard.

Situated in the beautiful rural village of Acklam, nestled on the lower slopes of the Yorkshire Wolds.

Whilst Sunnybank Farm retains much of its original character, very little has been left untouched; the current owners having recently added a two story extension and refurbished the property to provide a deceptively spacious and beautifully presented family home, with a room for every occasion. Part of this project involved a substantial rear extension which created a wonderful space adjacent to the kitchen/dining room with bi-fold doors opening onto the rear patio.

Overall, the property extends to an impressive 4070 sq ft, every room has been designed to suit modern family living the kitchen being one of the real highlights; a room for all occasions with a quality fitted kitchen and sizeable island ideal for day to day living.

The property benefits from five bedrooms, three with en suite bathrooms, an impressive dressing room to the principal bedroom, generous sitting room, dining room, boot room, utility room, open plan kitchen/dining/living area, and house bathroom.

There is a paved courtyard garden to the rear of the property, accessed via the bi-fold doors from the family room and also the hallway.
