Detached house for sale in Station Road, Ganton, Scarborough YO12

A substantial & especially versatile period property set within extensive grounds of over half an acre & offering well-appointed accommodation of almost 3,400sq.ft, in a sought-after location overlooking the grounds of Ganton golf club.

Located off the A64 at the foot of the Yorkshire Wolds, Ganton is an easily accessible village located approximately 9 miles south-west of Scarborough and around 14 miles east of Malton. The village benefits from a pub, parish church, and modern village hall facility, but is probably best known for its nationally renowned golf course, which has hosted several high-profile tournaments, including the Ryder Cup.

As its name suggests, Old School House is a conversion of a Victorian school, and is one of only a small handful of properties which overlook the golf course, on the road leading to the club house. Constructed of brick under a slate roof, the house is extremely spacious and has been reconfigured and significantly improved by the current owners, creating an appealing family home which will hold appeal to a broad cross section of buyers.

The living accommodation is arranged over two floors and extends to almost 3,400sq.ft. The house functions well as one impressive family home but is arranged in such a way that the northern wing could easily be utilised as an annexe for dependent relatives, or perhaps let out (subject to any necessary consents).

The accommodation includes a superb dining kitchen with aga and multi-fuel stove, a 20ft sitting room, a second reception room, up to six bedrooms and six bath/shower rooms.

The house sits well back from Station Road, within a plot of over half an acre, made up of extensive gardens, which are mostly laid to lawn, along with shrub borders, and patio areas. Approached via a carriage driveway, there is ample space to park, and a double garage adjoins the back of the house.
