About this property

  • Dating back to the 19th century, with later additions, Newfields is a thoroughly traditional Yorkshire stone house with all of the benefits of modern convenience. The property sits a plot of around three acres with equestrian facilities and annexed accommodation.

    The main accommodation extends to just over 4,100 square feet, with wonderfully spacious and light rooms, all benefitting from truly beautiful countryside views. The current owners have extensively refurbished and upgraded the property and it is now presented in immaculate condition with excellent energy efficient upgrades including solar panels and a microgeneration unit. The property is currently laid out in a way that lends itself to multi-generational living or for holiday let accommodation but would work equally well as one sizeable family home.

    The heart of the main accommodation is the open-plan kitchen with doors opening to the winter-garden room and dining room respectively. The handcrafted Treske kitchen is adorned with ample cupboard space, high quality built-in appliances and space for a kitchen table. A door leads to the utility room which links to a second kitchen. The winter-garden enjoys underfloor heating, a glass roof with electric blinds and Bi-fold doors creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living space.

    The formal dining room and adjacent sitting room have a more traditional feel, both impressive spaces that lend themselves well to entertaining guests. The sitting room has exposed wooden beams and a woodburning stove. Continuing through the ground floor there is also a study, family room and snug.

    On the first floor there are five double bedrooms, including the principal bedroom, which has an en suite bathroom with a separate shower unit. One further bedroom is also en suite, and completing this floor is a family bathroom and a further shower room.

    The front gardens are laid to lawn, with border hedgerow, shrubs, and flowerbeds. To the side, the driveway leads to a large courtyard at the rear of the house which gives access to an integrated garage and two further garages, the two stables, a tack and feed room and a garden store. There is a paved terrace area at the back of the house and across the courtyard, an area of lawn with several shrubs. Five-bar wooden gates to the side and rear open onto the paddocks and offers access to the field shelter.

A truly superb house that needs to be seen in person to appreciate the quality of the finish and the picture-perfect views.
