Callart House, Great Edstone, York

Pristine stone-built detached house with 3 paddocks with stabling and a substantial barn in all some 2.4 acres.

Callart House is a handsome modern detached property built of yellow stone sympathetic to its North Yorkshire village setting. Built in 2008 in a small development of four individual homes, the house benefits from outstanding uninterrupted views in every direction thanks to Great Edstone enjoying an elevated position within the Vale of Pickering.

Principal bedroom with large en suite, 4 further bedrooms, one with en suite shower room, family bathroom.

Gardens and land stretching to almost 2.5 with four stables and an 11.5m x 6.5m concrete floored barn

Additional Information - Callart House stands at the far end of a generous gravelled courtyard set behind a low gated wall. The trickle of a waterfall from the front garden’s lily pond accompanies you as you enter a large entrance hall through the smart front door. Turning immediately left, is the welcoming informal family area which spans the full width of the house, enjoying light from all directions. At the northernmost end is the kitchen with hand painted wooden cupboards and drawers, granite worktops, island unit, hob, wine fridge and a Neff integrated double oven. In the middle of the room there is space for a large dining table, while at the southernmost end is a cosy lounge area with free-standing wood burning stove and French doors that open onto the south-facing front terrace. A very handy utility room with space for a washer and dryer leads from the kitchen and allows access to the back garden. It also houses a powerful Worcester gas boiler, only recently installed by the current owners, benefiting from a ten-year guarantee. Hive controls can be found on the ground and first floors to regulate the zoned heating system.

Returning across the oak-floored entrance hall, there is a downstairs cloakroom and then a more formal sitting room, which again spans the full width of the house and enjoys views over both the front and rear gardens. A wood burning stove set in an aged brick fireplace with oak mantle and stone hearth adds to the warm and welcoming atmosphere. To the eastern end of the house, leading from the sitting room, lies a good-sized study with ample loft space above.

On the first floor are three double bedrooms, and one single. The largest has the benefit of a large built-in wardrobe and an en suite shower room; all four enjoy glorious and expansive countryside views. The 4-piece family bathroom, including a walk-in shower and separate bath, completes the floor.

The second floor plays host to a most impressive principal bedroom suite. Spanning the full width of the house, this fabulous space enjoys spectacular views towards the north and east thanks to three extra-length Velux windows. Across from the bedroom is a small corridor with several substantial under-eaves cupboards and a generous 4-piece bathroom with a free-standing bath and spacious wet-room area. This room benefits from under-floor heating.

Outside - At the front of the house is a south-facing courtyard garden with lily pond; the rear garden is mainly laid to lawn. A wide porcelain-tiled terrace has been laid in the past year which wraps around the eastern and northern sides of Callart House. In the corner of the rear garden is a timber gazebo providing useful space for entertaining and alfresco dining.

The 2.4 acres of land lie to to the north of the house and are accessed via a 5-bar gate from the gravelled drive. The land is divided into three paddocks, each with access to a fresh water supply. A small orchard with cherry, apple and plum trees lies on the eastern boundary. There is a block of three stables with 12 solar panels above which provide power for the stables and for the large 11.5m x 6.5m concrete-floored barn. The panels feed into the National Grid generating a small income on a 6 monthly basis for the current owners. A further stable and feed room can be found in the largest rearmost paddock.

A detached single garage, with ample boarded loft space above sits at the front of Callart House where there is also space to park two cars. A further dedicated parking space can be found at the far side of the shared courtyard.
