Detached house for sale in Front Street, Burton Fleming, Driffield YO25

A spacious former farmhouse in need of modernisation and improvement, but offering huge potential, along with a large site within the village development limits.

Holmefield House is a spacious former farmhouse which is in need of complete renovation. The property offers around 2,000sq.ft of floor space and offers considerable potential.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and includes three reception rooms along the front of the house, and a kitchen, pantry, and boot room across the rear. Upstairs there are three front-facing double bedrooms, a large house bathroom, a fourth bedroom with shower, and a currently untapped attic room on first floor level, which at present is only accessible via a ladder through a hatch in the kitchen ceiling.

The property occupies a large plot with garden areas and ample room to park. A range of traditional outbuildings which sit behind the house offer scope to convert and link to the existing accommodation, subject to securing the necessary consents. Similarly, the western portion of the site may have development potential, and a planning application has been submitted for the construction of a pair of semi-detached bungalows. The plot sits within the Burton Fleming development limits and adjoins the former farmyard, which has approved plans for the construction of five dwellings (now within separate ownership).

Burton Fleming is a traditional village set within the attractive countryside of Yorkshire Wolds. The village is within easy reach of three nearby coastal towns, namely Bridlington (8 miles), Filey (7 miles) and Scarborough (13 miles), where are there an excellent range of local amenities. Burton Fleming benefits from a small shop, 12th Century church and the neighbouring village of Hunmanby (around 4 miles away) has a range of shops and railway station on the Hull to Scarborough line.
