Description

Brafferton Hall West is a superb property, situated on a tranquil street in this picturesque North Yorkshire village. Formerly a dower house of the Coates family of Helperby Hall, this Grade II listed house sits in an enviable plot of approximately 0.29 of an acre.   

Offering over 2,700 square feet of accommodation, the property has been sympathetically refurbished and beautifully maintained by the current owners creating a stylish, modern interior with a number of eye catching period features helping to create a charming, traditional feel.

Entering through the ground floor you are greeted by a beautiful and spacious entrance hall from which all the main reception rooms lead. The particularly well appointed kitchen has been beautifully designed and crafted and features underfloor heating. Windows to three walls allow plenty of light into the room and there is space for a larger than normal dining table. A door leads on to the large utility room which houses additional cupboard space and an American fridge freezer. Continuing through the ground floor there is a cloakroom, WC and study.

On the first floor there is a magnificent principal bedroom suite with two large windows overlooking the manicured gardens and a dressing room and en suite bathroom. There are three further double bedrooms and the house bathroom which has wonderful aspects of the village church.

Externally the property benefits from an electric gated entrance leading to a large driveway with parking for several cars. The exquisite and larger than usual south facing garden has been landscaped to create well planted boarders, a manicured lawn, a number of raised beds and a paved patio area which is perfect for entertaining.
