Mount Pleasant

The sale of Mount Pleasant presents an excellent opportunity to purchase an especially attractive, Georgian former farmhouse, along with an extremely well-appointed two-bedroom annexe, landscaped gardens, and grass paddock, in a lovely setting within this sought-after hilltop village.



Constructed of limestone elevations, beneath a clay pantile roof, the house is believed to date from the mid-Eighteenth Century and is Listed Grade II due to its architectural and historical interest. The front of the house faces almost due West and from its elevated position affords some breathtaking views across the Vale of Pickering. The property retains a great deal of character and benefits from a versatile layout which includes three principal reception rooms and a spectacular, 44ft open-plan kitchen/family room. Also to the ground floor is a large boot room, guest cloakroom and a useful, guest bedroom suite. To the first floor there four double bedrooms (one en-suite) and a house bathroom; two attic rooms on the top floor offer further potential, if required. The overall floor area within the house amounts to almost 2,800ft2 (excluding the attic rooms) and heating within both this property and the annexe are provided by a wood pellet boiler.



Adjacent to the house is a well-appointed two-bedroom annexe, which has been converted from a stone barn and provides surprisingly spacious single storey accommodation of around 940ft2. It would be ideally suited to a those looking for a 'multi-generational' home but could potentially be used to generate a side income from holiday letting, subject to securing any necessary consents.



Mount Pleasant occupies an overall plot of almost 1.3 acres and is made up of attractively landscaped gardens, ample parking and a grass paddock, which will appeal to those with equestrian interests.



Great Edstone is an attractive and peaceful hilltop village located on the doorstep of the North York Moors National Park and only three miles from the Georgian market town of Kirkbymoorside. The town benefits from a large number of independent shops, pubs, restaurants and an 18-hole golf course. The village falls within the catchment area for Ryedale School at the nearby village of Nawton, which has a reputation for excellence. Each of the nearby market towns has something different to offer; the North York Moors steam railway is based at Pickering, some seven miles east. Malton is located approximately twelve miles south of the village and has in recent years gained a reputation as Yorkshire's Food Capital.
