East LaytonRichmond, North Yorkshire, DL11 7PQ

Layton Grange is a remarkable conversion of several period stone farm buildings, thoughtfully combined and finished to an exceptionally high specification in 2014. Set within beautifully landscaped, south-facing walled gardens, the property enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy and character.

The house is approached via a private driveway which passes an attractive open-bayed barn providing carport parking alongside a garage. Continuing through a charming archway, the driveway opens into a generous parking and turning area. Adjacent to this is a further garage block with two garages featuring traditional double timber doors, together with an additional open storage bay.

The accommodation extends to approximately 3,671 sq ft and is beautifully appointed throughout. The ground floor is centred around an impressive galleried reception hall, which can equally serve as a striking dining space. From here, the layout flows naturally, with the kitchen and day room positioned to one side and the sitting room together with ground floor bedrooms to the other.

The kitchen has been fitted with a timeless range of painted oak wall and base units, complemented by a central island with contrasting granite and woodblock worktops. A quality engineered oak floor completes the space, while underfloor heating – which continues throughout the entire ground floor – ensures comfort and practicality.

On the opposite side of the barn is a well-proportioned sitting room, featuring a characterful stone fireplace housing a cast iron stove, creating a warm and inviting focal point.

The east wing of the barn provides two bedrooms, both with en suite facilities, together with a study which could also serve as a fifth bedroom. Two adjoining outbuildings connected to this wing previously had planning permission for conversion to a craft room or studio, with access either from bedroom three or via an external front door (Planning Ref: 21/00532/FULL – expired December 2024).

The first floor, located above the main barn, provides two further bedrooms, both with en suite bathrooms, offering comfortable and private accommodation for family or guests.

Outside, a generous gravel driveway provides ample parking for several vehicles. Lawned areas and mature planting create attractive natural screening, enhancing the overall privacy of the setting.

Altogether, Layton Grange is a wonderfully versatile home combining period character, generous space and high-quality finishes within a peaceful and attractive setting.
