About this property

  • Catesby House is a substantial, attractive, detached family home built in 1994, offering a light, spacious and well-presented layout that can be arranged to suit individual needs.

    The house is set within an elevated position awarding the house the most outstanding views towards York.

    There is a generous ground floor with a good balance of reception space stretching the depth of the house, the superb sitting room has an open fire place as a central point and dual aspect, with access through to the conservatory with doors leading to the garden. There is a formal dining room accessed via double doors, again offering a dual aspect with a study area created to one end, ideal for working from home.

    The large, open plan kitchen breakfast room is a welcoming space with a range of modern wall and floor mounted units and worktops provide both good storage and preparation space, together with a range of integrated appliances. To one end of the room is a family seating area with a log burning stove. Adjoining the kitchen is a useful utility room with units and storage, there is a separate cloakroom and in built storage within the rear entrance hall that completes the accommodation on the ground floor.

    To the first floor is a spacious landing, leading to the principal bedroom suite with a dressing room and en suite bathroom. The second bedroom provides an en suite shower room, there are two further bedrooms and a family bathroom. On to the second floor there are two superb good sized bedrooms and a separate shower room.

    The house is approached via a gravelled driveway that provides ample parking and leads to the double garage with loft storage space above and a large lean-to log store providing further storage space. Behind is a small orchard area with fruit trees and a rear access leading to the village.

    Of particular note are the beautiful, established, landscaped, south facing gardens which are a wonderful feature and provide a spectacular backdrop to the property. To the rear of the house is a gravelled and terraced seating area. As the house is elevated, the garden is set on two levels offering alternative spacious seating areas ideal for al fresco entertaining. There are large mature beds and trees providing year round interest, colour and privacy.

    In addition there is a fenced paddock extending to about one acre with a useful stable accessed from the bottom of the garden.
