4 bed detached house for sale

Scrayingham, York YO41

A superb, modern village house set in beautifully landscaped gardens, offering immaculately appointed four-bedroom accommodation enjoying open views in a peaceful, yet easily accessible village, with the option of renting adjoining paddock land (by separate negotiation).

River View is a fabulous, modern village house, constructed around 9 years ago by a respected local builder. Enjoying a pleasant position within the peaceful village of Scrayingham, the house has been traditionally designed to blend in with the traditional street scene, but its interior layout is focused on modern day living, which includes a wonderful, semi-open-plan kitchen / dining room and garden room. River View is immaculately appointed throughout, and together with uPvc double-glazing, oil-fired central heating system and high levels of insulation is an energy efficient home resulting in an impressive ‘B’ rated EPC.

The accommodation in the house extends to almost 2,100sq.ft, with a further 340sq.ft within the pine log cabin. In brief, it comprises entrance hall, guest cloakroom, sitting room with log burner, study/snug, a stylish kitchen, dining room, garden room and a useful utility room. To the first floor there are four double bedrooms leading off a galleried landing. Two of the bedrooms have en-suite shower rooms and there is a further house bathroom.

The house sits in a good-sized plot of approximately one quarter of an acre, with attractively landscaped, west-facing gardens enjoying open views, and includes a superb, 29ft pine log cabin. The current owners rent a further area of garden from the local estate, which extends down to the river. There is an additional area of garden in front of the house, and a set of hardwood gates open onto a tarmac driveway which leads to a single garage.

Adjoining the property is a grass paddock of approximately 5 acres, which the current owners rent from the local estate, on which they have erected a timber stable block. We are informed that this arrangement could be continued, by separate negotiation.

Scrayingham is a peaceful, rural village located amidst the attractive scenery of the Aldby Park estate, yet is only 3 miles from Stamford Bridge, which offers a variety of local amenities and public transport (including regular bus service, shops and restaurants). Further facilities can be found in the nearby market towns of Malton and Pocklington, both around 8 miles distant. The historic Minster city of York is only 10 miles away, where the mainline railway station provides regular services across the country.

The tarmac driveway is approached via a set of hardwood gates, and offers ample room to park, leading onto a single garage. The bulk of the garden lies to the rear of the house, enjoying a most appealing west-facing aspect, with views across open countryside. French doors from the garden room open onto a private, stone flagged terrace, with a shrub border to one side and a feature pond at the far end. A path leads down to an expanse of lawn with another terrace, shrub borders, cherry tree and pergola. A useful, 29ft pine log cabin sits along the northern boundary, providing a variety of options as either additional entertaining space or for anyone looking to work from home.

An arbour leads through to more lawn, with hazel and laurel boundaries and further cherry trees, leading down to the river, where there is a staging for fishing or simply enjoying the views. This area is currently rented from the local estate, and we understand a new owner would be able to take this on too, if desired.
