5 bed detached house for sale

Lockton, Pickering YO18

An exceptional family home restored and
reimagined through an imaginative conversion of a series of Grade II listed
farm buildings.

Box Tree Barn sits in the centre of the village with an attractive
open aspect over the village green. The deceptively modest frontage belies the
overall extent of the property which provides over 4,000 square feet of space
and sits within almost a quarter of an acre of attractively landscaped grounds.

The buildings date back to 1750, and the conversion was handled with a rare
sensibility, combining an imaginative approach preserving the buildings innate
character, whilst creating a stylish home with a superb standard of finish and
with real integrity to the finished property. Local craftsmen and materials
were involved in the conversion process and features high-quality kitchen
cabinetry and sanitary ware are present throughout.

In all Box Tree Barn provides 4,337 square feet of accommodation, with
a self-contained suite of rooms forming an independent one-bedroom annexe which
can easily be incorporated into the main flow of the house. The annexe has an
independent entrance, heating system and
all services are separately metered, great
for any buyers looking for a property suited to intergenerational living. A
useful workshop/studio adjoins the house.

The accommodation has been designed around a sheltered central
courtyard garden, with doors opening directly onto the garden from three sides.
In brief, entrance hall with utility room, farmhouse kitchen with solid oak
cabinetry, garden room, a beautifully proportioned central hallway with a
carved oak return staircase up to the first floor. An elegant sitting room and
from the old wheelhouse a stunning main reception room has been created, featuring a vaulted ceiling, exposed original stonework and large windows to
two sides which flood the room with light. To the ground floor is a large
double bedroom with en-suite bathroom. To the first floor is a galleried
landing with fitted storage, there are three first floor bedrooms and the house
bathroom. The annexe is formed from the single storey range which fronts onto
the village street and offers lateral living, living room, dining kitchen, double
bedroom and shower room.

In all the house sits in just
under a quarter of an acre of grounds, including a sheltered courtyard garden, outside dining area set under a pergola and a lawned garden. There is ample
private parking and the benefit of two EV charging points.
