Newton-On-Rawcliffe, Pickering

An all-encompassing lifestyle property, comprising a high-quality character property, a substantial range of detached buildings which have full planning permission for conversion into an annexe, a range of practical agricultural buildings with stables and landscaped grounds and grazing land of 2 acres, all located within an accessible rural village.

A classic Yorkshire Longhouse, Pond Farmhouse was restored and remodelled around 15 year ago to an exacting standard. Grade II listed, the character of the original house has been carefully retained, albeit now finished and reconfigured for a contemporary owner, with a flexible arrangement of rooms and high-quality fittings and finishes throughout. The scope of the work includes the conversion of an adjoining cow byre to create a fantastic farmhouse kitchen with dining and living areas, dominated by a fully glazed western gable end which affords a fantastic view across the garden, grounds and land.

The farmhouse provides almost 3,000 feet of accommodation which briefly comprises the following. Entrance hallway with limestone floors, dining room, a triple aspect sitting room with open fire, study, snug with joiner-built cabinets, cloakroom and the farmhouse kitchen with vaulted ceiling and fitted with a bespoke range of kitchen cabinetry. To the first floor is an impressive master bedroom with vaulted ceiling, fitted wardrobes and adjoining en-suite shower room. There are four further double bedrooms, all with en-suite shower rooms and the main bathroom for the house.

Pond Farm sits in the heart of the village and aptly lies adjacent to the village green and pond. The farmhouse faces south, with a private parking area to the immediate front and a double carport. Opposite the house are a range of traditional buildings. These buildings have full planning permission (NZE25/01129/LBC) for conversion into two-bedroom, two bathroom accommodation with a lateral layout. Ideal for buyers who require additional independent accommodation. Work has been undertaken outside and services laid on, ensuring that only the interior work remains to be completed.

The village of Newton-upon-Rawcliffe is located approximately four miles to the north of the historic town of Pickering and is characterised by its pretty village green and duck pond.
