6 bed detached house for sale

Fimber, Driffield YO25

A superbly renovated former farmhouse providing spacious &immensely versatile six-bedroom accommodation & standing in attractively landscaped grounds of over half an acre within this peaceful Yorkshire Wolds village.

Corner House Farm is a hugely appealing period property which offers incredibly spacious and beautifully appointed accommodation of more than 2,800sq.ft, set within beautiful gardens.

The earliest portion of the property dates from the late Eighteenth century and was further enlarged by converting an attached two-storey barn, more than doubling the living space. The whole property exudes a huge amount of charm and character, whilst its versatile layout offers a huge amount of flexibility, including for those who are searching for a home with multi-generational opportunities.

Almost every room enjoys a south-facing aspect, overlooking extremely pretty gardens and in brief, the accommodation comprises porch, entrance hall, guest cloakroom, family room, sitting room, inner hall, snug, kitchen opening onto a glazed dining room, a utility room, pantry and ground floor bedroom (or study). Upstairs, a split-level landing gives access to five bedrooms (two of which have en-suite shower rooms) and a house bathroom.

The house benefits from oil-fired central heating, the majority of windows are double-glazed, and are for the most part, Yorkshire sliding sashes. Photovoltaic solar panels have been incorporated into a portion of the roof, adding to the property’s overall energy efficiency.

The gardens are a particular feature of Corner House Farm. They enjoy an excellent level of privacy and have been beautifully landscaped. The front garden has been divided using a series of intricate pathways, dwarf walls and box hedging, featuring paved seating areas, well-stocked shrub borders, lawn, a small pond, and flanked to one side by a range of brick outhouses. Beyond here there are further areas of lawn, a productive fruit orchard. A gravelled parking area allows for ample room to park and there is space to construct garaging, subject to the usual consents.

Fimber is a small, rural village set within the rolling countryside of the Yorkshire Wolds. The main portion of the village is set around a broad village green with a pond, known as The Mere.
