Description

This impressive period residence, set within approximately 5.47 acres of mature grounds, offers a unique investment opportunity. Known as The Rookery, the property spans around 5,000 square feet and includes a detached two-bedroom cottage that generates rental income. With significant family ownership since the 1960s, this estate provides ample scope for renovation and enhancement to suit modern living while retaining its historical charm. The main house features extensive outbuildings, including garaging with possible mezzanine conversion—ideal for additional living space or work areas, subject to local planning permissions. The picturesque grounds incorporate formal gardens and natural landscapes, enhancing both privacy and potential for tailored development. Internally, the home boasts generous reception rooms and five double bedrooms across its upper levels, complemented by versatile spaces such as a ground floor wet room and a cellar suitable for various uses. Significant architectural details from its Georgian origins combined with Victorian updates mark this property as not just a home but an investment in lifestyle. With possibilities for further enhancement in both the main dwelling and outbuildings, along with fertile land for gardening or equestrian use, The Rookery combines privacy with potential in one of Yorkshire's most desirable locations.
