A recently refurbished Georgian farmhouse incorporating numerous original outbuildings, occupying a commanding hillside position, set in almost 50 acres.
Description
Dating from the early C18th, Underbanks Farm has been transformed in recent years, the farmhouse and many of the original Grade II listed buildings having been sympathetically refurbished and extended to form the eye catching property which stands today.
Occupying a commanding position on a hillside, flanked by woodland and unspoiled pasture, some of which is designated SSSI, the Georgian farmhouse and adjoining barn have been comprehensively refurbished to an impeccable standard, the barn now being the principle home and the farmhouse a self contained annex. The two buildings cleverly combine period and contemporary architecture to form an eye catching property, perfectly framed by the glorious countryside which surrounds it.
The extended barn, boasts a generous wrap-around living space with full-length windows giving panoramic views of the North Yorkshire countryside and study area overlooking the natural pond. Steps then lead full circle to an open dining area, well equipped family kitchen and the cosy sitting room with statement fireplace and exposed stone walls. Collectively a very social and seamless space, bathed in copious amounts of natural light and arresting views around every turn. The first floor is equally impressive, accessed via a quality oak staircase which leads to a wide landing leading to three double bedrooms, two served by a large and beautifully appointed family bathroom, the principle bedroom having an ensuite shower room and dressing area with picture window.
The original farmhouse with three additional bedrooms has been restored to an equally impressive standard. Providing ample living space to cater for a visiting family or dependant family member, equally suited to holiday let accommodation.
Externally there are additional buildings providing garaging for two cars and a separate space for garden equipment or potentially stables. The is a separate barn housing the central heating system and water filtration system. The final piece of the portfolio is a large wooden chalet which could provide additional accommodation, space for garaging or an agricultural barn. Planning permission has been approved for an additional three bedroomed dwelling and three bay garage on the site - ask agent for more details.
The surrounding garden has been well maintained, laid principally to lawn, with a large spring fed pond on the eastern flank, complimented by a timber summerhouse. The rear courtyard has been recently gravelled and provides parking for numerous cars as well as several sheltered areas for sitting out. The surrounding land is divided into mature mixed woodland, extending to around to just under 50 acres and covering the hillside to the south of the house, and the remaining acreage extending in a series paddocks to the north, east and west.

The area is also home to some of Yorkshire’s best walking and cycling routes. Richmond offers a great range of amenities including national and local retailers, swimming pool, cinema, traditional weekly market and a great range of pubs and restaurants and of course the acclaimed Georgian theatre.
The station, a restored Victorian railway station, which features a restaurant, cinema and gallery, is also home to a number of artisan food producers and is a popular attraction.
The town has a number of schools so there are educational opportunities at both primary and secondary level. Richmond plays host to a number of cultural events throughout the year
The property is conveniently located for access to the A1, and with London just two hours twenty minutes from the nearest railway station, Richmond is ideally suited for those looking for town or country living or for the commuter who is looking for good road, rail and air links.
