4 bedroom detached house for sale
Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
The sale of The Lodge and the Former Church of Our Lady & The Holy Angels presents a unique opportunity to purchase a four-bedroom period cottage, together with an adjoining former church, in a desirable village within the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The original portion of the property is believed to date from 1837 and was built as a lodge house to nearby Gilling Castle. The building is constructed of stone under a slate roof and bears the Fairfax coat of arms in the centre bay. The chapel-of-ease is understood to have been created in the 1950s, and later extended in 1973.
The Lodge benefits from oil-fired central heating and includes a large sitting room, dining kitchen, utility room, four bedrooms (one with en-suite cloakroom), and a house bathroom. The adjoining Church has LPG central heating and amounts to over 1,100sq.ft. The interior of the church itself is a plain, uninterrupted single space with an open-truss timber roof, and a large mullion window to the south. To the side there are further ancillary rooms. It is located within the village development limits and, subject to securing the necessary consents, has significant potential to either enlarge The Lodge accommodation, or create an annexe/holiday let or for those looking to run a business from home.
Externally there are garden areas to the front, side and rear, and a driveway, which is accessed via a right of way across the private drive that leads to Gilling Castle.
Set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Gilling East is located some 10 miles from Malton, 25 miles from York, and only 5 miles from Helmsley. The village has a well-regarded gastro pub, The Fairfax Arms, a golf course, model railway, village hall and Parish Church. Helmsley is a very attractive market town situated on the southern fringe of the North York Moors National Park. With a weekly market, an eclectic range of smart shops, hotels and restaurants and high-class delicatessens the town is an especially popular tourist destination, with additional amenities including a primary school, Doctor’s surgery, library, thriving arts centre and recreation ground.
The property is offered for sale as a whole, or in two lots, the guide as a whole is £450,000.
