This attractive and individual detached home is part of a select small development of just three properties, formerly a farm homestead on the south side of the main street in this quiet Yorkshire Wolds village. The original traditional period barn was converted to a two storey four bedroomed home in the early 1990's retaining character features. Since this time the long term owners have carried out alterations and improvements to present to the market a well appointed and future proofed home to include PV roof panels for electricity and a car charging point. The versatile and spacious accommodation includes three reception rooms, a dining kitchen with solid pippy oak cabinets and two studies/ offices for those working from home. An elevated position towards the rear of a large grassed plot provides views around the village and there is also a totally private walled south facing rear courtyard within which to enjoy the sunshine and barbeques.
