9 bedroom detached house for sale

West End presents a unique opportunity to purchase a principal three-bedroom house, together with two further self-contained three-bedroom dwellings, known as Howard’s Way and Castle View. Built in 1967, the main house is constructed of reconstituted stone beneath a tiled roof and offers over 1,250sq.ft of versatile accommodation with a lovely outlook towards the Castle Howard Estate.

In the early 1990s a former workshop was converted to provide a pair of surprisingly spacious, single storey holiday cottages, each with three bedrooms and large, open-plan living spaces. The western-most cottage was subsequently granted planning consent for change of use to a permanent dwelling (subject to local needs occupancy condition), and whilst both cottages would benefit from some modernisation and improvement, they offer scope potential for those looking for a multi-generational home with income earning potential.

The property enjoys a pleasant, elevated position, set well back from the village street and each of the properties back onto open fields, enjoying superb views of Castle Howard. There is ample space to park, a good-sized garage, workshop and stores, together with easily maintained garden areas.

Accommodation in the main house comprises hall, cloakroom, sitting room, dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms and a shower room. Much of the internal partitioning within the two cottages is studwork, which would allow them to be easily reconfigured, or amalgamated – subject to any necessary consents. Howard’s Way totals almost 850sq.ft and Castle View nearly 780sq.ft. Each of the three properties benefit from oil-fired central heating.

Welburn is a well-regarded village set within the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It has a thriving community and benefits from a popular pub, coffee shop, primary school, and a modern and active village hall. There is easy access to the A64, approximately 1 mile away, providing convenient access to Malton (5 miles), York (14 miles) and Leeds (40 miles). Castle Howard house and grounds are only a 5-minute drive away and there are endless footpaths crossing the stunning countryside that this area is famed for.
