Thirklewood House

Thirklewood House is a stone-built detached residence offering spacious and especially versatile accommodation within large gardens and grounds of approximately 1.6 acres, located a short distance outside of Oswaldkirk village and 4 miles south of the sought-after market town of Helmsley.



The original portion of the house is thought to date from the 1950s, although it has been extended and reconfigured over many years and at one stage operated as a B&B. It occupies an elevated position at the top of Oswaldkirk Bank and just inside the boundaries of the North York Moors National Park.



The accommodation includes four reception rooms, an updated kitchen with Aga, utility room and six double bedrooms, two of which are to the ground floor. Most rooms are generously proportioned, and the overall floor area amounts to over 3,500ft2. The property would now benefit from a certain amount of updating, and subject to securing any necessary consents, could be reconfigured to suit a variety of potential buyers.



The overall plot amounts to approximately 1.6 acres and is made up of a principal garden area, bound to the south and east by a sizeable area of woodland. A carriage driveway allows ample room to park and there are several garages on the site.



Oswaldkirk is a pretty village, pleasantly situated in an attractive area of countryside between the North York Moors National Park and the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village is well placed for easy access to the Georgian market town of Helmsley, located approximately 4 miles north and the neighbouring village of Ampleforth some 2 ½ miles west.
