Property description
Set within the beautiful grounds of the Harewood Estate, this early 19th-century home is a rare opportunity to rent a detached period property in one of the area’s most distinctive settings. With two impressive reception rooms, a south-facing garden, generous private parking and woodland and open countryside on the doorstep, this is a rental opportunity that stands well apart from the ordinary.
Grade II listed and built in traditional Yorkshire stone, the house has a quiet sense of character that comes from its original architecture. Elegant arched windows, high ceilings and an original fireplace remain throughout, giving the home a sense of history and proportion that sits naturally alongside its recent refurbishment.
The interior has been thoughtfully brought up to date, creating a clean and contemporary home without losing the details that give it its identity. Natural light fills the rooms, with the front of the house offering two welcoming reception spaces. The living room is a particularly inviting place to settle in, with generous built-in storage and large bookcases in either corner, making it an especially appealing space for those who like to surround themselves with books and the things they love.
Further through the house, a large additional lounge creates a more open and relaxed space for everyday living. Sliding glass doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating a natural connection between the house and the outdoors and allowing the room to make the most of the garden’s sunny south-facing aspect.
The kitchen has also been refurbished, with a central island creating a natural focal point and built-in storage keeping the space practical and uncluttered.
There are four bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with its own ensuite and walk-in shower. Throughout the house, the balance between modern finishes and original character gives the accommodation a considered, comfortable feel.
Outside, the south-facing rear garden is a real highlight. With planted beds, a greenhouse and a useful storage outbuilding, it offers a lovely private space to enjoy throughout the day. The sunny aspect makes it a natural extension of the living spaces, whether for quiet mornings, summer afternoons or entertaining in the warmer months.
The property is approached through a private gated entrance, with generous secure parking to the front for three to four cars. Beyond the garden, the wider setting is equally special, with the Harewood Estate, surrounding woodland and open green spaces all close by.
Recently refurbished, unfurnished and ready to move into, this is a home that combines the character of an early 19th-century property with the ease of modern living, all within a setting that is rarely available to rent.
