A recently extended and refurbished period stone cottage with large garden, exceptional views

Description

This charming stone-built period property is believed to have been constructed in 1919 as a pair of contrasting homes designed to serve the local estate. The Stone House enjoys an enviable elevated position on the fringes of the village, affording glorious far-reaching southerly views across the surrounding countryside.

In recent years, the property has undergone significant refurbishment and reconfiguration, enhancing both the internal layout and overall appearance. The most recent changes include a substantial side extension, which has dramatically enlarged the dining area extending from the quality farmhouse style kitchen, creating a spacious open-plan environment ideal for entertaining and everyday family life, and the conversion of the former garage into an additional bedroom and bathroom, providing flexible accommodation for guests or family members. The stylish décor flows seamlessly into the living room, where a new feature fireplace with a cast iron stove takes centre stage, both rooms benefitting from an abundance of natural light through sash windows.

The first floor has received similar attention, with all bedrooms tastefully redecorated, the house bathroom completely refitted, and the principal bedroom enjoying a newly installed en suite shower room. Every room boasts wonderful views that stretch for miles to the south.

To the rear, the owners have also created a utility/boot room and a home office, as well as a guest bedroom (4) with en suite shower, further enhancing the versatility of the accommodation.

Outside, a driveway provides parking and access to a fuel store and a small paved patio garden. The house occupies a generous corner plot, with the majority of the garden to the front and side, laid mainly to lawn and complemented by a productive vegetable garden. A patio flanks the perimeter of the building, providing a superb vantage point from which to enjoy the outstanding elevated views across the surrounding countryside.

Location

The Stone House is on the eastern edge of the village of Brandsby in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, on the western flanks of the Howardian Hills.
