4 bedroom detached house

Believed to date from the mid-19th century, The Old Vicarage is a well-presented sandstone-built double-fronted family home offering over 3,300 sq. ft. of light-filled flexible accommodation arranged in an L-shaped configuration and has been sensitively extended and modernised to combine the amenities of modern living with character features including high ceilings with fine original cornicing and sash windows.

Featuring a wealth of beautiful wooden flooring throughout, the ground floor accommodation flows from a welcoming reception hall with part-panelled walls and feature turned staircase and comprises a large drawing room with front aspect bay window, a side aspect bay window and a feature fireplace with wood burning stove. There is also a spacious sitting room with a bay window and feature fireplace, a well-proportioned study with a bay window and a boot room and cloakroom which could be an additional bedroom with built-in storage and en-suite cloakroom. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a large kitchen/breakfast room opening into a spacious triple aspect dining room, both with feature flagstone flooring with underfloor heating, together with a useful fitted utility room with access to the rear aspect. The kitchen provides a range of modern wall and floor units with a large central island and breakfast bar, granite worktops, modern integrated appliances and window seating. The dining room features a vaulted ceiling with exposed beam, exposed stone wall and French doors to the garden terrace. The property also benefits from a generous cellar, suitable for a variety of uses.

On the first floor the property provides a large principal bedroom with a fitted dressing room and a very large en-suite bathroom with twin sinks, inset spa bath and double walk-in shower. There is also one further front aspect double bedroom, a spacious modern fully-tiled family bathroom with twin sinks, bath and walk-in shower and a useful separate cloakroom. The property’s two remaining bedrooms, both featuring exposed beams and vaulted ceilings, can be found on the second floor, one offering access to a large attic storage space.

Near to the North York Moors National Park, with opportunities for walking, cycling and riding, Kirkby-in-Cleveland offers a good range of amenities including a church, village hall and public house.

The village of Great Broughton has further day to- day amenities including a hotel, store with Post Office and two public houses. Both villages share a popular primary school and a sports club and nearby Middlesbrough offers more extensive shopping and recreational facilities.

The A1(M) ensures easy access to both the north and south of the country, as does the excellent rail service from the Northallerton train station on the East Coast main line, with fast direct links to all major cities including London, York and Newcastle.

The area has a good selection of state primary and secondary schools including Kirkby and Great Broughton C of E VA Primary School in the village and Stokesley School, as well as a wide range of noted independent schools including Yarm, Teesside High School and Red House.

Having plenty of kerb appeal, the property occupies a prominent spot close to the church and is approached over a front garden with level lawn and well-stocked flowerbeds enclosed by low-level stone walling with a path to a gabled wood porch. The well-maintained rear garden is laid mainly to level lawn bordered by well stocked flowerbeds and mature shrubs and trees and features a very large paved terrace, ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining, separating the house from a large stone built outbuilding with two rooms, suitable for a variety of uses including conversion to additional accommodation if required (STP).
