Dating back to the mid-1600s, this impressive home combines period charm with modern living across around 6,000 sq ft of flexible space, including up to seven bedrooms, three bathrooms and five reception rooms. Recently improved and ready to move into, it features a high-quality kitchen, dining and living area, plenty of natural light from bay windows, and sits within approximately 2.38 acres of private grounds with open views, all set in a well-connected village close to Filey and Scarborough.

From the Agent’s Perspective
This is a rare chance to secure a home that brings together history, space and everyday practicality in a way that is not often found within a village setting. Properties of this age and scale are seldom available in such a central yet private position, and it is clear a great deal of care has gone into ensuring the house works for modern life while keeping its original character.

The current owners have invested significantly over the past year, and the results are easy to see. The finish throughout is of a high standard, meaning a buyer can move straight in without the need for further work. The improvements have been thoughtfully carried out, with a clear focus on creating comfortable, usable spaces while respecting the period features that give the home its charm.

One of the strongest features of the property is its flexibility. The layout offers a wide range of options, whether you are looking for multiple reception rooms, dedicated work-from-home space, or areas for hobbies and leisure. It would suit a growing family, those needing multi-purpose rooms, or anyone wanting the freedom to shape the home around their lifestyle.

The generous amount of storage is another practical benefit that is often hard to find in properties of this type.

The kitchen, dining and living space stands out as the heart of the home. It has been designed with both day-to-day living and entertaining in mind, offering a sociable and well-planned area that connects easily with the rest of the house. Natural light flows well through the property, helped by the bay windows, creating a bright and welcoming feel across many of the rooms.

Outside, the grounds provide a strong sense of space and privacy, with open views adding to the appeal. Despite this, you remain right in the centre of the village, giving a good balance between a quiet setting and easy access to local amenities and nearby coastal towns.

Overall, this is a home that offers both character and versatility, making it well suited to a wide range of buyers.
