The house is understood to have a link to the Brodsworth Hall Estate and is constructed of attractive white limestone, believed to have been mined from the same quarry used for Castle Howard.

Mature gardens wrap around the house and are studded with a wide variety of specimen trees; to the east is a lovely kitchen garden with raised beds, gravelled seating areas, a greenhouse and soft fruit borders. A gated driveway offers ample space to park and leads to a double garage block with home office and outside stores.

Adjoining the gardens is a substantial stable block, which has been attractively designed and provides five good quality loose boxes, including a foaling box. These are perfectly complemented by four acres of sheltered paddock land, subdivided into four, by post and rail fencing.
