This expansive country estate spans nearly 28 acres and offers a unique opportunity for investment and renovation. The property is nestled in an elevated position, providing stunning panoramic views of the Ampleforth Valley and the Howardian Hills. It features a main residence complemented by a two-bedroom cottage, surrounded by a variety of outbuildings suitable for multiple uses, including general-purpose barns and equestrian facilities such as stables, a horse walker, and a manège.
The primary house encompasses three reception rooms, a kitchen/dining/living area designed for spacious family gatherings, five bedrooms, and four bathrooms spread over two floors. Significant potential lies within the layout—especially with the possibility of transforming an accessible flat roof into a rooftop terrace (subject to consents), enhancing both views and usage. The ground floor also boasts practical living arrangements with its suite-style bedroom.
The outdoor settings are equally inviting, approached via a scenic tree-lined driveway that leads to well-maintained gardens and parking areas framed by flowering trees. The equestrian facilities are extensive, providing ample space to develop further investments or personal usage.
Set in close proximity to local amenities in Ampleforth village while offering easy access to market towns like Helmsley and Thirsk, this estate has been held by one family for 45 years. It presents an excellent canvas for those looking to enhance its appeal or adapt it to modern standards while maintaining its rural character.
