Description
A beautiful stone period home in the heart of Pickering, a historic market town on the edge of the North York Moors, offering elegant interiors, flexible living space across three floors, a two-bay garage, a generous garden, and over 2,950 sq ft of refined living space-just moments from historic landmarks and boutique amenities.
Set in the heart of the historic market town of Pickering and bordering the breathtaking North York Moors, this exceptional 3-storey stone-built residence spans over 2,950 sq ft. A masterclass in period elegance and contemporary comfort, it showcases character features throughout, from stunning chandeliers to feature fireplaces, while offering a flexible layout ideal for modern family living. A rare opportunity to own a home that effortlessly blends heritage and functionality.
Behind its traditional stone façade lies a home rich in character. The entrance hall sets the tone, with a meticulously varnished hardwood staircase and elegant detailing throughout. Leading through to two impressive reception rooms-one a cosy sitting room with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, a statement piece chandelier and a fireplace, and the other a sophisticated living room perfect for entertaining. A large formal dining room adjoins the country-style kitchen, fully fitted with a cooker, sleek cabinetry, and access to a well-appointed utility room and boot-ideal for country living.
The first floor continues to impress, offering two spacious bedrooms and a third currently used as a dressing room with fitted wardrobes. The standout is the principal suite, which enjoys peaceful garden views and a sleek en-suite bathroom, complete with a freestanding bath and walk-in shower. A separate family bathroom - also with a freestanding bath - serves the remaining bedrooms with matching style and comfort.
The second floor adds another layer of flexibility, featuring one bedroom that is currently set up as a home office and another that is arranged as a TV snug. Whether you're seeking space for guests, remote work, or a creative escape, this top-floor retreat offers full flexibility - all with tranquil rooftop views across Pickering.
Externally, the walled garden and south-facing patio terrace are beautifully landscaped-perfect for al fresco dining or enjoying a glass of wine as the sun sets. The detached double garage with an electric car charging point and ample gated parking provides security and convenience.
Located just a 5-minute walk to Pickering Castle, and moments from the North York Moors Railway, Beck Isle Museum, and highly regarded local eateries such as The White Swan Inn and Willowgate Bistro, this home places you at the heart of a vibrant community. Artisan shops, farmers markets, and walking trails offer a lifestyle steeped in heritage and nature.
For those who travel, you're just 30 minutes to York by car and within reach of the Yorkshire Coast for weekend escapes.
This is more than a home-it's a lifestyle choice for those who appreciate space, quality, and the charm of an English market town with luxury on your doorstep.
