Description
Situated within over 11 acres of landscaped gardens and paddocks a country home of the highest quality revealing bespoke fixtures, tasteful interiors and a self contained annexe; perfect for dependant relatives and guests.
With a rare blend of convenience and privacy; Willowfields House is the perfect location for the discerning family buyer seeking ease of access to the County's major commercial centres whilst retaining links with the friendly community in the nearby historic village of Monk Fryston.
This distinctive country home was originally designed and constructed by a renowned local architect for his own occupation in the mid 1970's at the heart of a unique woodland setting which has enabled the creation of delightful gardens and amenity areas screened by mature woodland to the South and bounded by its own paddocks to the North which ensure that high levels of privacy are protected.
A private gated driveway with security entrance system winds its way through subtly sculpted dells and former quarries which were the source of stone for Selby Abbey ultimately leading to private gardens which are the ideal setting for this stunning home and its cleverly designed four car garage block and self-contained annexe .
The main residence provides over 3300 sqft of accommodation with the additional comfort of a superb apartment (760 sqft) both of which are centrally positioned within the 3.5 acre formal gardens and woodland. With tasteful interior design throughout stylish creature comforts include feature fireplaces with Esses stoves, solid brass electrical fittings , comprehensive double glazing , oil fired central heating and air conditioning to the principal bedroom.
A welcoming reception hall with bespoke staircase leads to an elegant formal drawing room with front and rear garden aspects whilst a private snug / family room is a perfect place for relaxation on a winters evening.
The stunning family dining kitchen is undoubtedly "the hub" of Willowfelds House with delightful southerly aspects across manicured lawns - a 700 sqft zone for space for entertaining within the surrounds of a bespoke handcrafted Shaker style Kitchen by Chappell featuring Miele integrated appliances a four oven electric Aga with companion oven and electric hob ,dishwasher, coffee machine, plate warmer, refrigerator and wine cooler. Off the main kitchen a rear hall with a guest cloakroom and utility room connects the main house with a rear courtyard, the garaging and annexe.
A handsome staircase with ornamental balustrade accesses the first floor landing with useful linen cupboards and the principal bedroom suite with magnificent elevated garden aspects , its own cleverly created dressing area and a commodious ensuite bathroom with a luxury suite, walk in shower enclosure and Villeroy & Boch tiling. The guest bedroom has its own ensuite shower room with French porcelain sanitary ware and two further family bedrooms are served by a house bathroom with a cast iron bath and LeFroy Brooks sanitary ware
The detached garage block will accommodate four vehicles with the additional benefit of a store room and gardeners w.c. Above the garaging and accessed by an external staircase is the self-contained 760 sqft apartment style annexe featuring a large sitting room with exposed beans, rustic brick fireplace and kitchen area, a double bedroom and connecting hall with fitted wardrobes and access to a shower aromatic whole structure comprises 1520 sqft over two floors - and subject to planning there is the potential to create a larger detached dependant relative dwelling if desired .
The magnificent 3.5 acre gardens with lawns, seating areas and woodland dells can be enjoyed from a series of intricately designed footpaths bounded by dry stone walling which has been a labour of love by family members. Finally to the North of Willowfields House is a fully enclosed 8 acre paddock with separate access from the A162; ideal amenity space for the equestrian enthusiast but also having horticultural potential due to the existing polytunnel and large timber workshop with potential as a retail outlet.
Despite the rural privacy within its boundaries Willowfield House is only a short drive rom Monk Fryston and a wider range of amenities in Sherburn in Elmet and Selby with the major commercial centres of Yorkshire and Humberside easly accessed via the A1/ M1 / M62 motorway network.
