"The Chestnuts is a truly magnificent detached former farmhouse, Grade II listed and dating back to 1835, occupying a commanding position along the peaceful and leafy Back Lane in the highly sought after East Riding village of Burton Pidsea.

With a substantial internal footprint of over 4,000 sq ft arranged across three floors, this exceptional home offers beautifully restored and character filled living spaces, all set within an expansive mature plot that includes established gardens, a former stable block, generous parking and a large attached garage.

When the current owners first stepped through the front door in 2007, there was no doubt in their minds this was to be their dream family home. Although in need of total renovation, they saw the potential and embarked on an extensive and sensitive restoration programme. The result is quite simply stunning. Many original features have been preserved, while others such as decorative coving and fireplaces have been carefully sourced or recreated to reflect the home s early 19th century heritage, blending seamlessly with modern touches for comfortable everyday living.

This is a home of genuinely grand proportions and immense warmth, where character and attention to detail are evident throughout. A beautiful portico entrance opens into a welcoming reception hallway, where the sweeping original staircase immediately sets the tone. High ceilings, large sash style windows, elegant fireplaces and quality finishes continue throughout the main living spaces.

The principal sitting room is a wonderfully light filled space with dual aspect sash style windows and a handsome marble fireplace housing a log burning stove. The separate family room is equally charming, with its own period style fireplace and a peaceful outlook over the grounds. At the heart of the home lies a vast 27ft kitchen dining family room an outstanding everyday living and entertaining space fitted with bespoke shaker style cabinetry, solid granite worktops, a traditional range cooker, and a feature central island. There s also a useful utility laundry room, rear hallway, study, and smartly finished ground floor cloakroom WC.

Unusually, there are three separate staircases rising to the first and second floors one from the main hall and two from the kitchen leading to the former staff quarters which offer both character and versatility in layout.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a serene retreat with views over the front garden, original window shutters and its own elegant four piece ensuite bathroom. A central landing leads to another spacious double bedroom, while a second landing accessed via one of the additional staircases leads to two further double bedrooms connected via a Jack and Jill ensuite, and a beautifully appointed main house bathroom featuring travertine tiling, a freestanding bath and walk in shower.

Two staircases then rise to the top floor, where the former attic rooms once used as staff quarters in a bygone era offer superb potential for further conversion subject to any necessary consents . These large, versatile spaces are perfect for additional bedrooms, workspaces or guest accommodation.

Outside, the property continues to impress. An in and out gravel driveway provides plentiful parking and leads to an attached garage. The grounds are equally special beautifully landscaped, with a mature lawned garden to the side, enclosed by established trees, shrubs and a striking original brick and stone wall. At the rear, a charming enclosed courtyard offers a tranquil spot to relax, and the former stable block, currently used for storage, is brimming with potential for conversion into a studio, garden room or home office.

The Chestnuts is offered to the market with no onward chain, allowing a smooth and uncomplicated purchase. This is a truly remarkable home rich in history, full of soul, and immaculately presented. Viewings are highly recommended to fully appreciate everything it offers.
