An impressive five bedroom stone built house with a beautiful garden and the option of a paddock, situated in a peaceful corner of the much sought-after village of Farnham


Description

Set in one of the most sought-after villages in North Yorkshire with easy access to Harrogate and Knaresborough we offer this stunning stone built house to the market. Manor court is set in a private courtyard of just three detached homes. It offers circa 4000 square feet of versatile living space, with beautifully proportioned rooms, a stunning hand crafted kitchen, a lovely garden and the option to acquire the additional paddock land with a productive orchard. Ideally suited to those with equine interests with excellent hacking from the doorstep.

Entering the private drive to the development you notice the beautifully clipped mature yew hedge. The stone in the building is stunning especially when the light catches it. Entered via a stylish front door from a stone paved path you enter into a truly stunning hallway, a rare find at this price point, this spacious and luxurious entrance with French oak flooring sets a precedence for the rest of the house. The colour contrasts on the walls and the picture rail gives the place that regal feel.

From the hallway to the left is a sizeable office/study. The village has excellent download speeds and the previous owners worked from home. Next to this accessed from the hall is a beautiful living room entered through double doors to give a wow factor feel. The floors are tiled with limestone and the underfloor heating gives that lovely warm feel on your feet. This is a large space which would be a wonderful entertaining room or a great place to relax with family. The owners have installed a Burley wood burning stove, one of the very best money can buy. Beautiful bay windows overlooking the garden complete this fantastic space.

To the right of the hallway entered again through double wood doors is the fabulous kitchen. Crafted by Grovehouse a renowned bespoke kitchen maker in the area this kitchen has it all. A stunning island and breakfast bar with Miele wine cooler, a Miele oversize oven with steam function for the ultimate Sunday roast (currently retailing at £10,000) a further Miele single oven, a Miele steam oven and a warming drawer. In built single refrigeration as well as an American fridge freezer. Of particular note is the massive pantry unit with internal granite surface and striking walnut shelves. There is a very elegant pendant light positioned ready for a dining table. Again such a far cry from the tiny allowances for kitchens in new builds these days.

The kitchen opens onto the informal family room/large snug all with newly decorated walls. This side is an extension the owners added and it works so well. One could use this room as a formal dining room as an alternative but the owners held their dining parties in the jaw dropping sun room with vaulted ceiling. You enter this room through an arch way in the hallway or from the kitchen side via double doors from the snug. It is beautifully decorated with lovely views across the garden.

Situated on the first floor are three generous bedrooms; the magnificent principal bedroom with en suite bathroom and sizable walk in wardrobe. Bedroom two also benefits from an en suite bathroom and bedroom three is served by the house bathroom.

On the second floor, ideally situated for guests, sit bedrooms four, with en suite bathroom and storage cupboard, and bedroom five.

The paddock is accessed via a small gravel drive wide enough for cars. (Clients invited to take their own measurements if required) This has an orchard, a small outbuilding store that could be made into a stable. This could be the ideal ‘good life’ smallholding or equine paddock.

Location

The picturesque market town of Knaresborough offers an excellent range of daily shops and services. The wide ranging attractions of Harrogate are about five miles away, but most notably the property is ideally situated for swift accessibility to further afield, being about five miles from the A1(M) Motorway, Junction 47. The likes of Leeds (about 34 minutes drive) and York (about 37 minutes drive) are within very comfortable commuting distance, both having rail connections to the East Coast Mainline with some services making the journey to London Kings Cross in under two hours. Leeds Bradford airport is about a 30 minute drive away.

By virtue of being in the heart of Yorkshire, there is an extensive range of pursuits across the county ranging from racing at Wetherby, York and Ripon, shooting on the Yorkshire Moors, golfing at the likes of Pannal and Alwoodley and a raft of other cultural, social and retail opportunities for which the Harrogate area is well known such as the famous Betty's Tea Rooms.
