York City Centre 16 Miles / Harrogate 15 Miles / A1(M) 5½ Miles

A stunningly presented 5 bedroom family home in the very sought-after village of Brafferton/Helperby, between Easingwold and Boroughbridge. Originally built by the highly regarded ‘Hogg The Builder’ from York, extensively refurbished and improved by the present owners. The Hayloft benefits from oil fired central heating and double glazing with accommodation laid out over three floors.

On the ground floor, doors open from a reception hall to a spacious living room and a separate dining room with solid wood floors and windows overlooking the garden. The breakfast kitchen has been refitted with a stunning range of contemporary units with integral appliances and leading off from here is a utility room and cloakroom/WC, with back door access to the double garage with remote control door. On the first floor is an impressive master bedroom suite with backlit Japanese sliding doors leading to a 20’ walk-in dressing room and an en-suite shower room. In addition, a freestanding Kaldewei double-ended bath within the bedroom itself. Further doors lead from the galleried landing lead to three additional double sized bedrooms and the house bathroom with a modern white suite. On the top floor of the house is a fifth double bedroom currently utilised as an office and a storage room, housing the hot water tank and wooden shelving/airing space. The enclosed walled gardens at The Hayloft are a true suntrap being predominantly west facing and includes a generous paved seating area, lawn and borders. The property is approached via remotely operated double gates with entry keypad and camera, connected to a ‘smart home’ system within the house or Smartphone.

The Hayloft lies at the head of an exclusive cul-de-sac of individual properties in the village of Brafferton (and Helperby). The villages have a good range of facilities including a doctors surgery, a butchers, two pubs, cricket club and a church. St Peter’s primary school is situated just a few hundred yards away, which was rated as ‘good’ in the latest Ofsted inspection. The towns of Easingwold and Boroughbridge are approx. 5 miles away and there is quick access to the A1(M) at junction 48.

"Having lived here for almost 20 years, we’ve extended and modified the house to meet our needs as a growing family and hope to sell it to someone who is looking for the same safe village surroundings to start or continue their own family journey too. The ‘Close’ is a very friendly group, who spend many a summer evening in one-another gardens. The school is great and has been a fantastic starting point for all three of our children."
