Description

Occupying approximately 0.21 acres in an idyllic rural setting on the outskirts of Cawood, this exceptional property combines immediate, comfortable living with an exciting development opportunity. Comprising a beautifully situated three-bedroom detached home, a detached barn with planning permission for conversion into a two-bedroom dwelling, useful outbuildings and generous parking, this is a truly unique offering in a sought-after countryside location.

The existing detached home was converted approximately 17 years ago and provides spacious, well-appointed accommodation arranged over two floors. Ready for immediate occupation, the property has recently benefited from new carpets throughout and a stylishly renovated bathroom, offering buyers the perfect blend of comfort and practicality while the adjoining barn project is completed. Whether you're looking for a family home, multi-generational living, guest accommodation or a home with income potential (subject to any necessary consents), the versatility on offer is exceptional.

One of the property's standout features is its stunning panoramic countryside setting. Every window in both the existing home and the barn enjoys far-reaching views across open fields, creating a wonderful sense of space, privacy and tranquillity rarely found.

The detached barn extends to approximately 1,442 sq ft and represents an exciting opportunity to create a bespoke two-bedroom home. Significant preparatory works have already been completed, including the installation of a new roof, while much of the internal structure has been stripped back to provide a blank canvas for the next owner to complete to their own specification. Planning permission is already in place for the conversion of the building into a characterful two-bedroom dwelling, presenting an excellent opportunity to add significant value.

Externally, the property benefits from direct access from Bishopdyke Road, extensive off-road parking, a range of useful outbuildings and generous gardens, all surrounded by open countryside. Both buildings are served by separate LPG central heating systems and share a modern treatment plant, installed in early 2024 and understood to remain within its guarantee period. Please note that the existing EV charging point will be removed prior to completion.

Despite its peaceful rural setting, the property is conveniently located for a range of local amenities. The popular village of Cawood is approximately 1.5 miles away, offering shops, schools and everyday services, while Selby lies just over 5 miles to the south-east with a wider selection of amenities and rail links. Sherburn-in-Elmet, approximately 4 miles to the west, provides further shopping facilities and excellent commuter connections to Leeds, York and beyond.
