4 bed bungalow for sale

5, Carr Hill Ridge, Briggswath, North Yorkshire YO21

Potential, potential, potential - Hyfield, Briggswath - one of Sleights most desirable residential postcodes.

Offering approximately 2,606 sq ft of accommodation, this substantial four-bedroom home is all about space, position and possibility. The interior now offers a clear opportunity for modernisation, but the fundamentals are difficult to replicate: Generous rooms, an elevated setting and panoramic Eskdale valley views.

The principal living floor is particularly impressive. Two substantial living rooms provide fantastic flexibility, with the rear sitting room enjoying a huge picture window and doors opening directly onto a private balcony, placing those panoramic views firmly at the centre of the home. A separate dining room and kitchen complete this level, and there is obvious potential to rethink the arrangement to create a more open and sociable style of living, subject to the necessary consents.

The bedroom accommodation is spread across two levels, with four bedrooms in total. Three occupy the upper floor alongside the main bathroom, while a further bedroom, shower room and large utility room sit on the lower level. This arrangement could work particularly well for guests, older children or potentially as a more independent suite.

There is also an abundance of practical space, including a large integral garage, utility room, ground-floor shower room and additional WC. From here you will also happen upon two large cellar rooms providing further useable space.

The house is undoubtedly ready for its next chapter. Kitchens, bathrooms and décor can all be changed; 2,600 sq ft, an elevated position and views like these cannot. With thoughtful refurbishment, there is an opportunity to create a seriously impressive contemporary home while making far greater use of the outlook that already surrounds it.

Outside, mature planting gives the property privacy, while the broad paved frontage provides parking and access to the garage. To the rear, the elevated position opens up to far-reaching countryside views, with the balcony providing a wonderful place to sit and take them in.

For someone prepared to invest in the house and bring it up to date, the potential here is considerable – a substantial and individual home in one of Whitby's most desirable residential areas, with the space and setting to become something very special.

Access into Whitby is just a short drive away and the convenience of Sleights Village just minutes. With the Esk Valley and many breath taking walks on your doorstep, this property is perfectly placed for those seeking a more rural lifestyle with convenience of Whitby as an option.
