3 bed detached house for sale

Hutton-Le-Hole, York, North Yorkshire YO62

A thoughtfully restored and extended, off-grid rural retreat nestled in the breath-taking landscapes of the North York Moors National Park.

Description
Treacle Mansion is a captivating rural retreat nestled within 1.1 acres of woodland and wildflower meadow, set in the North York Moors National Park. Acquired by the current owner over 14 years ago, the property has been thoughtfully transformed into a charming three-bedroom residence, featuring distinctive timber larch extensions and a versatile steel portal frame outbuilding, all set within a truly picturesque setting.

Originally constructed in 1894 and meticulously rebuilt by the present owner. Treacle Mansion has been crafted to offer exceptional insulation and sustainability, creating a self-sufficient, off-grid home that possesses all of the desired amenities of any modern house.

The heart of the property is the spacious open-plan kitchen, fitted with an Esse stove and bathed in natural light from the large west-facing windows that overlook Douthwaite Dale. The space presents a superb opportunity for a new owner to personalise the kitchen to their taste. The addition of the pantry adjacent to the kitchen offers practicality.

The delightful sitting room features a traditional log-burning stove with original fire surround, exposed oak beam and a bespoke spiral steel staircase with cedar treads leading up to the first floor, will be fitted before completion. Upstairs, the principal bedroom boasts a Juliet balcony and expansive windows framing views over the garden. Bedroom two is positioned at the front of the house, with a cosy snug created on the landing. A bathroom is fitted with a freestanding bath and separate shower. On the ground floor, a versatile third bedroom, could serve as a potential home office.

Planning permission is in place for an extension on the southwest side of the property, which could accommodate an additional reception room or bedroom, complete with decking in front.

Throughout the ground floor, underfloor heating is complemented by polished concrete flooring.

The approach is via a wooden gate leading to a parking area and the outbuilding. The outbuilding itself offers a flexible first-floor space suitable for conversion into an office, with external cladding to be finished in locally sourced untreated larch or cedar, in accordance with planning consent.

The boundary is delineated by fencing, stone walling, mature native shrubs and trees, with the added option to retain the charming shepherd’s hut.

The property benefits from a septic tank with bio-rock aerobic treatment plant and soakaway, all functioning without the need for electricity, and heating is supplied via propane gas. A diesel generator with a bank of batteries provides supplementary power, while planning permission has been granted for solar panels to be installed on the outbuilding roof. Water is sourced from a private borehole located within the paddock, and broadband is supplied via a local provider, Beeline. The windows are equipped with triple glazing, enhancing insulation and energy efficiency.
