DETAILS The Gate House at the end of the driveway certainly sets the scene for this modern detached property, designed to capture the rustic charm of a farmhouse through the interior finish. Standing side ways onto the plot, this property is well hidden from the road. Architect Richard Parkin skillfully created a design to blend within this highly regarded village, that is well known and famous for the Marina and river leisure pastimes. The farmhouse offers a generous amount of floor area, yet extremely versatile to suit individual needs and purposes. For those requiring outdoor space the garages and The Gatehouse may just whet the appetite, successfully combining home and work together. Finally and what is so rare being close to York City is the land, this may attract those seeking a small Equestrian Estate. In brief: The Gate House, a two storey dwelling built 1989/90 as a 'domestic workshop and office' The farmhouse offers: Reception hallway, breakfast kitchen with Rayburn, walk in pantry, utility room, sitting room enjoying a southerly aspect, garden room, study, ground floor shower room with Nordic sauna. To complete the ground floor is a family room or bedroom 4. To the first floor, a master bedroom with ensuite shower room, two further bedrooms and principal bathroom. Externally a double garage, built in stores and gardens. The land to the rear, totalling about 6 acres, is a paddock, sheltered by three bands of woods, some planted in 1998 under an ADAS scheme.
