DESCRIPTION / BACKGROUND

Kirkgate Farm is a very nicely situated residential and equestrian smallholding, located in a private position within well wooded grounds on the immediate south of the attractive village of Sawdon, positioned on the edge of the North York Moors National Park.

The property comprises a 4 bedroom house, over 15,000 sq.ft of buildings providing workshop, storage, livestock housing and stabling and in all is situated within just under 32 acres of land.

The current vendors purchased the property as a parcel of land and buildings and the modern stone farmhouse was then built around 30 years ago.

The house occupies a superb position on the fringes of Sawdon Village, taking in expansive views southwards across the Vale of Pickering and towards the Wolds in the distance. Built to the specification and design of the current owners, Kirkgate Farmhouse is a well-proportioned, modern property which in all, provides over 2,000 square feet of family accommodation.

There is a large concrete yard area providing access to the large range of relatively modern general purpose agricultural buildings and a slightly separate range of stables closer to the house.

The farm has previously been used as a reasonably intensive cattle rearing unit and also provided horse livery accommodation. The versatile range of buildings may also be suitable for bed and breakfast pig accommodation or provide good quality general purpose storage with immediate access to the land
