Lilac Villa dates back to the 1800s and is originally two Victorian railway worker cottages on the outskirts of the village of Escrick.

This exceptional home seamlessly combines modern living with the enchanting character of a traditional cottage, featuring an expansive open-plan layout, soaring ceilings, and four generously sized double bedrooms.

There is a beautifully designed open-plan kitchen, dining, and family area. The centrepiece is the exquisite bespoke kitchen by local House of Elliott, a York cabinet maker, showcasing hand-painted Little Green Basalt base and wall units, tailored pantry storage, a Quooker tap, and luxurious brass fixtures finished with a Calacatta Quartz worktop. The kitchen leads into a light and airy dining area and onto the wonderful family sitting room with log-burning stove, built in media unit and French doors opening to the garden.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a useful utility room, providing additional storage and space for laundry appliances.

Continuing through the ground floor is a separate, more formal sitting room with cast-iron open fireplace. There is solid oak flooring throughout the main reception areas.

Ascending the stairs to the first floor you will find four generous bedrooms and a beautifully appointed house bathroom with roll-top bath. The principal bedroom has a particularly luxurious feel with built-in wardrobes and an en suite bathroom.

Externally the property sits on a particularly sizeable plot, surrounded by scenic countryside. The garden comprises immaculate lawns to the front and rear flanked by mature hedges and trees. Well-placed patios provide idyllic places for al-fresco dining. To the rear of the garden sits the home office, ideal for home workers or those seeking a studio.

A gravelled driveway provides off-street parking for several cars, alongside the double garage.
