Dam Lane, Saxton, Tadcaster, LS24

This stylish period village home provides the rare opportunity to combine family living with potential rental income from a separate cottage and the additional benefit of a self contained annexe ideal for relatives and visitors. Originally constructed from locally sourced lime stone in the early 19th century with a Welsh slate/pantiled roof and traditional Yorkshire sash windows School House Farm has been tastefully upgraded by our clients retaining many period features and all improvements have been in keeping with the property's Grade II listed status. The farmhouse has a flexible range of accommodation over three floors approached via a central hall which serves two separate reception rooms with an inner hall leading to a dining room and spacious well appointed breakfast kitchen. There is also a useful range of cellars and a utility/boiler room. On the first floor three family bedrooms and a study are served by a house bathroom and a separate shower room and finally the second floor features a stunning bedroom/sitting room with magnificent exposed beams and a separate dressing room/playroom. Within a delightful landscaped rear courtyard is a separate cottage which has produced a consistent rental income for our clients and which comprises a reception hall, sitting room and a dining kitchen on the ground floor with two double bedrooms and a house bathroom upstairs. The most recent development of the property is a self contained annexe and attached workshop - formerly a double garage - with accommodation comprising a bed sitting room, kitchenette and shower room with the potential to connect with the main dwelling. Saxton is a small North Yorkshire village with a strong community spirit and an ideal location for the busy commuter seeking ease of access to the major commercial centres of Leeds and York as well as excellent shopping facilities in Tadcaster and Wetherby.
