5 bedroom detached house for sale

This detached period property offers a deceptively spacious level of accommodation of more than 2,300sq.ft and occupies a generous plot of almost 0.2 acres within a quiet part of this well-served village, just 5 miles east of Malton.

Within the last six years or so, the current owners have undertaken a significant level of work, and the house now offers hugely appealing and versatile accommodation which includes two reception rooms, a stunning open-plan kitchen/dining room with mezzanine play room, up to five bedrooms and three bath/shower rooms. The house comes with a long and varied history, having started life as a row of smaller properties, including a village shop.

The living accommodation is laid out across three floors, and briefly comprises of a spacious entrance hall, sitting room, snug, 25ft open-plan kitchen/dining room with extensive range of integrated appliances and bi-fold doors onto the garden and stairs leading up to a mezzanine play room or study, a useful utility room and guest cloakroom. To the first floor is a master bedroom with large en-suite bathroom, three further bedrooms (one with en-suite shower room) and a house bathroom. On the top floor is an office, which leads through to a fifth bedroom. There is central heating throughout the house, which is underfloor within the kitchen, utility room and guest cloakroom.

The property benefits from a huge integral garage of more than 400sq.ft, with doors at either end, allowing for access through to the back garden, if required, and a side passage also allows foot access to the rear. The back garden is a great size and is securely enclosed, making it an ideal for anyone with pets or a young family. Much of the garden is laid to lawn, along with a flagged patio area, various shrub borders, raised beds, a greenhouse, range of brick-built outhouses and a mature weeping willow tree.

Rillington is an especially well-served village with a number of amenities including shop and post office, primary school, two pubs, butcher’s shop and Doctor’s surgery. A regular bus service passes through the village and the A64 provides easy access to the nearby market town of Malton (5 miles), Scarborough and York (18 and 23 miles respectively). Number 52 is located towards the far end of Low Moorgate and is clearly identified by our ‘For Sale’ board.
