Dalton Gates Cottage Main Street, Warter, York

Are you looking for a change of lifestyle and like the idea of rural living? Then look no further, as this substantial family home could be the perfect purchase for you! The property occupies an impressive plot and boasts unparalleled views over The Wolds to three sides; a rare and highly desirable feature that will surely appeal to the most discerning purchaser. The internal layout of the property is extremely versatile with bedrooms to the ground and first floors which is ideally suited to anyone that is looking to have the option to live on one level or has a family member that needs their own living space. The annexe could also be used as guest accommodation to the main house. There are so very few houses of this calibre that have come to the market in recent years, so an early viewing is highly recommended.

As you drive up the hill you will notice that the property is nestled alongside mature woodland in an elevated and prominent position just off the road side. To the left hand side of the house there is a gravelled drive providing parking for multiple cars with a detached double garage beyond. On opening the front door you find yourself in a lovely spacious entrance hall with stairs straight ahead leading to the first floor. Within the entrance itself there is a door adjacent to the staircase that opens to a substantial storage cupboard which provides more than enough space for use as a home office.

To the right-hand side of the entrance hall there is a snug with an open fire at its centre. The main living room, which can be found across the hall, is spacious and benefits from an impressive log burner, a wonderful addition for the colder winter months. There are windows to three sides, allowing natural light to flood the room throughout the day. Stunning parquet flooring has been laid throughout this room, a lovely feature that adds real character. French doors at the rear open onto the garden. Moving on you find yourself in the dining area; this is a great space that currently accommodates a formal dining table but could be used for a variety of purposes depending on individual requirements. The kitchen is beyond with two separate granite L shaped worktops, one of which incorporates a stainless steel sink with drainer. There are a variety of appliances including a Bosch double oven with four ring Hotpoint hob over, a Bosch dishwasher and an under counter fridge. There is a period Clarke & Sons of Driffield Range at one side of the kitchen which is in beautiful condition and still functional. In addition there are multiple storage units and shelves. There is a substantial utility room off the kitchen, which is fitted with a range of wall and base units with solid wood worktops, space below for white goods and storage. Off the utility room sits a fully fitted shower room, comprising walk-in shower cubicle, w/c and pedestal hand basin. The Annexe completes the ground floor with two good sized bedrooms and a living room at the far end, which again has doors that open to the rear garden. The living room could be used as another bedroom if required or as a home office.

To the first floor there are four double bedrooms, three of which have built in wardrobes. One of the bedrooms has an en-suite comprising a corner shower, w/c and hand basin. The family bathroom is fitted with a four piece suite comprising a corner shower, bath with shower attachment, pedestal hand basin, w/c and a heated towel rail.

Externally the double garage has two electric roller doors, a workshop to its rear, an upstairs storage area and a brick built store attached. Within the garden there are multiple seating areas where you can sit and enjoy the sun in the summer months, a greenhouse, multiple vegetable plots, a variety of mature trees and shrubs. The centre of the garden is laid to lawn, perfect if you have young children that like to play outside. The property is surrounded by open countryside so it really is the perfect place if you want peace and quiet.
