4 bed detached house for sale

Tollerton Road, Huby, York YO61

An attractive & substantial period house providing spacious four/five bedroom accommodation of almost 3,200sq.ft together with landscaped gardens, range of outbuildings and grass paddock.



Spring House Farm is an attractive period property set amidst open countryside around half a mile outside of the popular village of Huby, and occupies a wonderful plot of approximately 2.8 acres, made up of beautifully landscaped gardens, a range of outbuildings and a useful grass paddock.

This former farmhouse is believed to date from 1858 and has been carefully updated and greatly improved during the current owners’ tenure, with outstanding results. It offers exceptionally spacious accommodation of nearly 3,200sq.ft which is complemented by a tasteful scheme of interior décor and many original features. On the ground floor it comprises porch, entrance hall, sitting room, living room, study, an 18ft dining kitchen, utility room, staircase hall and a guest cloakroom. To the first floor there are four double bedrooms, two bathrooms (one en-suite) and a fifth double bedroom or office (which can also be independently accessed via its own staircase). On the top floor is a huge room which currently serves as a spectacular, light-filled studio, but would also make further bedroom accommodation, if required.

Externally, its gardens have been sensitively landscaped, creating structure, colour and interests throughout the seasons. They are incredibly private and have been divided into a series of ‘rooms’, featuring lawn, clipped box, flowering shrubs, specimen trees and a variety of paved and gravelled terraces. Adjoining the house and gardens to the west is a grass paddock, which totals approximately 2.4 acres, making an appealing package for any buyers with equestrian or smallholding interests. A range of traditional brick-built outbuildings, which have been recently re-roofed. These total nearly 1,200sq.ft offer incredibly useful storage, but also present interesting potential for a variety of alternative uses (subject to planning consent), such as annexe accommodation for dependent relatives, or a holiday cottage.

Huby is a thriving village located approximately 9.5 miles north of York city centre and benefits from a number of amenities, including a community village shop and post office, primary school, two pubs, fish and chip shop, village hall and sportsground with football and cricket clubs. The village is well placed for access to the nearby market town of Easingwold (approximately 5.5 miles), and also onto the A19 and A1M, for anyone looking to commute further afield. Nearby York offers a fantastic range of facilities, and its mainline railway station provides regular services to major cities including Manchester, Edinburgh and London, which can be reached in less than 2 hours on some routes. Spring House Farm is privately situated, approximately half a mile west of the main village.
