York House is a substantial three bedroom home with an abundance of original features – some of which are unique and unparalleled.
The house was designed and built by the original owner sometime in the 1930s and the current owners have called it home for some 45 years – during which time it has been much loved.
The front of the home sits behind gates which provide access to the paved driveway and there is a garage providing useful storage (if you need more space, there is a second garage too). Make your way to the front door to begin exploring this exceptional abode.
Before you step over the threshold, you will notice the pretty tiled floor to the covered doorway and that the door itself is grand and imposing – just the first of some fine features original to this home.
Once through the front door, the entrance hallway welcomes you. Your eyes will immediately be drawn to the beautiful Terrazzo marble balustrade that adorns the sweeping staircase. The same Terrazzo marble has been used to enhance the skirting and if you were to sneak a peek under the carpet, you would see that the stairs are also Terrazzo marble. Simply stunning.
A guest cloakroom has been added to the corner of the hallway and there is a very generous coat cupboard too.
Ready to see more? Then step into the dining room to discover a spacious room that includes an original Art Deco fireplace, complete with gold leaf tiling – breathtaking - and guaranteed to add a sense of occasion to family gatherings. More elegance awaits next door in the living room and here you will discover an inglenook fireplace that proudly sits above another stunning fireplace that has been here since the home was built. Original windows on both sides of the fireplace allow plenty of light into the room and add to the history of this outstanding house.
Continue further into the spacious conservatory which allows views of the garden that stretches away to the field beyond.
Time to have a look at the kitchen so make your way through the door from the conservatory and find yourself in a handy utility room which provides useful space for household appliances. And in the kitchen, you will find plenty of room too. There is much you could do here to adapt to your style of living and some updating would really amplify the space.
As you exit the kitchen, a short hallway leads into a lovely sunroom to the side of the home – this is another great room with plenty of light so you can enjoy being outside, whatever the weather.
Wander out into the large garden which has a lovely patio area and lawn. After a little taming, the area at the very bottom is just the perfect spot to create a tranquil retreat – your own secret garden.
There is lots more to see upstairs so when you have made some plans for upgrades to the outdoor areas, pop back inside. As you ascend the staircase, the tactile Terrazzo handrail leads the way to the cavernous landing from where you get a birds eye view of the hallway below.
To your left, a useful cupboard provides a home for the boiler and a place to keep fluffy towels.
The bathroom has been uplifted and is modern and stylish with a luxurious whirlpool bath and nicely sized corner shower cubicle.
The bedroom to the rear is superbly large and has views of the garden and greenery beyond while the other two bedrooms are also generously sized and roomy.
This amazing home is waiting to welcome a new family who are ready to make some happy memories of time spent here among its unique and unequalled features. It truly is a gem that must be seen to be believed.
