A unique opportunity presents itself with this Grade II listed former farmhouse, situated approximately 15 miles north of York in a secluded rural setting. Accessed via over half a mile of field tracks, this property spans about 3.1 acres and includes an expansive selection of dilapidated outbuildings totaling over 6,500 sq ft (605 sq m). Originally constructed in the early 1800s, Throstle Nest requires significant restoration and comes with the complexities associated with listed properties, including the necessity for local authority permissions for any modifications or renovations.
Internally, the farmhouse features three reception rooms with open fireplaces, an original kitchen equipped with a Rayburn range and bread oven, as well as four bedrooms configured across two levels accessed by multiple staircases. However, it's important to note that the property currently lacks central heating and is in need of extensive repairs to its windows and interior spaces.
The exterior includes an overgrown garden area along with various outbuildings that have been left structurally unsound, necessitating professional evaluation before any work can commence. This property represents a compelling project for those willing to restore a piece of history while navigating the challenges presented by its age and condition. Potential buyers are encouraged to consult specialists in renovation and listed buildings prior to pursuing this project.
