School Road, Hemingbrough, Selby

Dating back to 1860, The Chase is among the areas signature and period properties showcasing some of the finest interior living and tremendous outdoor space.

Following an extensive eight-year, high quality restoration project, the present owners have brought the property to market, providing an unparalleled opportunity to purchase one of the finest and most sophisticated properties within 30 minutes of Central York.

The beautiful 2,128 square foot period house, built in Georgian architectural style, provides the perfect balance of well-proportioned family and more formal rooms, whilst occupying a deceptively extensive plot, set within grounds of 0.37 acre with outdoor terrace seating areas, ancillary buildings and substantial garage and gymnasium.

The owners have focused on a sympathetic and elegant interior design, maximising each room, whilst recognising the importance of the outdoor space. Enhanced by a stunning secluded side terrace and full width decking along the rear elevation, the garden is undoubtedly one of many crucial selling points.

On entering the property, you are welcomed by a grand entrance hall having a sweeping staircase to the first floor arrangement. There is a room for all occasions and seasons, each beautifully decorated but ensuring the period features take centre stage

One of the most notable rooms in the house is the formal sitting room, detailing elegant décor with half height dark gey panelling and a wood burning stove. This room focuses on sophisticated colour schemes while still blending the history of the house with original architrave, exposed wooden floor boards and sash windows.

To the opposing side is a second reception room with an original open fireplace, and seamlessly merges into the dining room, decorated in a rich inky blue style. Access to the beautiful elevated side terrace area is via French doors covered by a pergola and abundance of artificial flowers full of colour. The owners advise this area is most often used all year round and particularly admired in the summer mornings with the rising sun from the east.

The kitchen will be found towards the rear of the property, showcasing a contemporary yet industrial design incorporating exposed walls and ceilings with contrasting units. Wanting to create a quirky feel, the owners have created just that and more with their own personality and attention to detail. The units of air force blue, sage green and dove grey contrast beautifully with copper handles and black granite work surfaces over. There is a black painted steel framed construction around the alcove that the Rangemaster sits within. This room is boosted by natural light through French doors and full height glass window.

The ground floor is further enhanced by an incredible and bespoke built in wine cabinet and utility room with a downstairs wc.

There are four generous bedrooms, including the principal suite along with a stunning house bathroom. The two front bedrooms remain in keeping with period style having sash style windows, whilst the back rooms have more modern uPVC double glazing. All four bedrooms are generous in size with high ceilings and a central heating radiator.

The house is approached via iron wrought gates leading into the property’s front grounds. There is a gravelled driveway with a delightful island bed, well stocked with shrubs and a tree. Walled and established tall tree lined boundaries provide a vast degree of privacy.

The bulk of the grounds lay to the rear of the property and enjoy a tremendous outdoor space made up of a raised decking area, outdoor kitchen and a private and enclosed garden to the far east, hid behind the trees.

Adjoining the western boundary are a range of outbuildings comprising of a utility room, toilet and workshop in addition to a converted barn now occupied as a gymnasium. The majority of the outbuildings and the barn have power and lighting, meaning they can be used for a range of purposes depending on the individual(s) requirements.

NB – the present owners have installed an Electrical Charging point to the front of the property, along with a brand new gas fired central heating system.

The Chase is a contemporary period family home that has been lovingly restored with outstanding outdoor space. Properties of this specification, style and nature are rarely presented to the open market and the sale of this property provides one of those increasingly rare opportunities.

All viewings are strongly encouraged and strictly by appointment only.
