A Prestigious Period Residence in the Heart of Driffield Built in approximately 1912 and only had two owners!
Offered to the market for the first time in over 50 years, this distinguished and substantial period home represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of Driffield’s most prestigious private residences. Rich in character and history, the property combines elegant proportions with exceptional versatility, making it ideally suited to large families, multi-generational living, or those seeking generous space both inside and out.
The accommodation extends to five well-proportioned bedrooms, complemented by spacious and adaptable living areas that retain the charm and presence expected of a home of this calibre. The layout offers flexibility to suit a variety of lifestyles, whether for family living, entertaining, or home working.
Set within a large wrap-around garden, the grounds are a particular highlight. Predominantly laid to well-maintained lawns, the garden also features a patio area ideal for outdoor dining, along with a productive vegetable garden. The boundaries are securely fenced and hedged, providing both privacy and peace of mind.
Externally, the property benefits from a quadruple garage, offering extensive parking and storage solutions. Despite its tranquil setting, the home is conveniently located close to local amenities, combining seclusion with everyday practicality.
Adding further appeal, there is a separate building plot available by separate negotiation, benefitting from full planning permission for a detached dwelling.
Guide price for the plot: £125,000 – £150,000.
This is a truly exceptional and seldom-available home, offering history, space, and future potential in one of Driffield’s most desirable locations.
