King Rudding Lane, Riccall, York

An exciting opportunity to acquire this extended detached bungalow, set within an extensive plot of just under 2 acres.

The property is situated just a stone's throw from the edge of Skipwith Common, approximately 1.5 miles east of the village of Riccall. King Rudding Lane is a quiet, single-track, no-through road, leading to one of the many entrances and car parks serving Skipwith Common. The lane is accessed directly from the A19 and is home to only a handful of residential properties, making it well known for its peaceful rural setting and surrounding agricultural landscape.

Approaching from the A19, the property is located on the right-hand side of the lane, towards the end of the lane. Set within just under 2 acres of land, the property enjoys a rural position, with paddocks positioned to the side and rear.

The property itself is a deceptively spacious three-bedroom detached bungalow extending to approximately 1,250 sq.ft. of internal accommodation. The current owners acquired the property in 2010 and have since undertaken a programme of improvements, including reconfiguring and extending the accommodation. In 2012, the former garage was converted into a home office, alongside the addition of a utility room and shower room. At the same time, a single-storey extension was constructed to the rear, creating a further reception room. The central heating boiler and double-glazed windows were also replaced during these works.

Entering the property through the front door, a spacious entrance hallway provides access to the bedroom accommodation on the left and the living accommodation on the right. The principal living room is generously proportioned and features a wood-burning stove, together with a large double-glazed window overlooking the rear garden and surrounding land. The living room also provides access to the dining room and the extended additional reception room, offering versatile living space ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining.

The kitchen is located to the front of the property and is fitted with a range of wall and base units, incorporating a stainless steel sink with drainer. A double glazed window overlooks the front elevation, with access leading to the utility room, shower room and office.

The office has been created through a thoughtful conversion by the current owners and benefits from natural light via two double glazed windows. Offering flexible accommodation, it could also be utilised as a snug or playroom, depending on the purchaser's requirements.

The shower room comprises a WC, wash hand basin and shower cubicle. The adjoining utility room provides space and plumbing for laundry appliances.

Positioned beyond, the sitting room forms part of the extension and is a bright, welcoming space with French doors opening directly onto the rear patio and garden.

To the opposite side of the property are three bedrooms, each benefiting from a double glazed window and central heating radiator. The accommodation is completed by the family bathroom, fitted with a traditional suite and featuring a frosted double glazed window to the rear elevation.

Externally, one of the property's principal features is the generous outdoor space, extending to just under 2 acres in total. The property is accessed directly from King Rudding Lane via a driveway providing off-street parking for several vehicles. The front garden is predominantly laid to lawn, with stock-proof fencing to the western boundary and a mature tree frontage providing a good degree of privacy.

Positioned to the west of the bungalow is an enclosed paddock extending to approximately 0.45 acre, currently used by the present owners for grazing sheep. The majority of the land lies to the rear of the property, extending to just under 1.20 acres of grassland and enclosed by fenced boundaries.

Immediately adjoining the property is a private garden area incorporating an extended patio, providing ample space for outdoor seating and enjoying a south-facing aspect.
