Thornton Le Dale, North York Moors National Park YO18

Built in 1905 and with just five owners since then, The Lodge was carefully and thoroughly restored some 12 years ago. An emphasis was placed on preserving a number of fine period details eponymous with the Edwardian era, alongside equipping the house for a modern buyer, with high quality fittings and fixtures and creating an easy flow of living accommodation throughout. This ethos has been continued by the current owners, with an emphasis placed on energy efficiency, by refitting a large number of windows with joiner build hardwood units, installing solar panels with integrated battery and app control system, which cover around 90% of the properties electricity costs, a renewed central heating system ensures efficiency and an EV charging point has been installed, making the house an appealing blend of traditional character and contemporary standards. High speed broadband is available throughout the house and grounds.

The accommodation is arranged over three stories and amounts to 3,353 square feet in total, well-presented and cared for throughout. In brief; main entrance hallway with a fine return staircase and the original stained glasswork. Large dining kitchen with bespoke kitchen cabinetry and an adjoining utility and laundry room.
