Find Out A Little More ..... - The renovation carried out by the current owners includes a new roof on the house and outbuildings with the stone elevations repointed and cleaned, returning the house to its original splendour. Internally, a new oak-framed orangery provides a light-filled connection between the inside and outside, while warm limestone flooring from Mandarin Stone of Harrogate runs throughout the ground floor, complemented by underfloor heating. The kitchen and bathrooms have been newly designed and fitted, alongside bespoke internal and external doors and hardwood slimline double-glazed windows. Behind these visible finishes, the house has been comprehensively renewed, with new electrical and plumbing systems, including an oil-fired boiler. The interiors have been redecorated in a restrained palette of Farrow & Ball colours.
The kitchen, dining and living space extends into the oak-framed orangery, where a wall of west-facing windows and wide-opening double doors bring the garden and terrace into the heart of the house. The bespoke, custom-made kitchen has been designed equally for everyday use and entertaining, centred around a substantial island with breakfast bar. An illuminated pantry cupboard and drinks and a cocktail dresser provide useful storage, while a four-oven electric AGA forms the principal cooking range. Bosch integrated appliances, a Shaws twin-bowl sink positioned beneath a window overlooking the village, and quartz worktops and splashbacks complete the room.
A separate utility and laundry room continues the same cabinetry and worktop specification, with a sink beneath a west-facing window.
Spanning the full breadth of the house, the drawing room is triple aspect, drawing in light from the south, west and east. A window seat looks across to a magnificent ornamental cotinus in the front garden, while French doors open west onto the rear terrace and gardens. A Burley wood-burning stove provides a simple focal point to the room.
A generous light-filled central landing provides ample space for a study or sitting area and leads to four double bedrooms, each enjoying a fine outlook. The principal bedroom benefits from both south- and west-facing light and has an en suite bathroom, also with view across the garden. Bedroom 4 is currently used as a sitting room: a beautifully proportioned, double-aspect room with views along the street towards the Fairfax Arms. It offers considerable flexibility as either a fourth bedroom or an additional reception room. The main house bathroom is fitted with a bath with shower over and a basin set within a bespoke vanity unit.
Outside - Beckside has beautifully landscaped gardens and grounds that rise gently behind the property into a wooded area. Paved terraces and a generous expanse of level lawn provide are framed by mature trees, established borders and specimen planting. A magnificent weeping willow forms a striking centrepiece, while a series of terraces and dedicated seating areas are positioned to make the most of views towards the surrounding countryside and church tower.
A path meanders upwards through the wooded garden, passing an arbour and a further area designed for quiet reflection with a fine outlook back down towards the house. At the far boundary, a garden gate provides direct access to open countryside.
At the front, the house is discreetly set back behind a stone wall and mature beech hedge, with an attractive front garden lined with lavender. A garden gate and path leads to the main entrance. From the village street, electric gates cross the beck and open onto a gravelled turning and parking area in front of the detached garage. Adjacent to the garage, and accessible from the rear, is a superb, fitted boot room, a versatile space with a separate wc.
The wraparound gardens and grounds are secure and dog-proof. They have been landscaped with new fencing and sandstone paths, with external taps extending throughout the garden along with motion-sensor and timed external lighting.
