Make an entrance - walk in through the glazed wain door into the spacious double height reception hall, it s a room in itself, with a glass balustrade walkway landing above, it s dramatic and impressive. Where would you put the Christmas tree? The show stopper living kitchen will be sure to bring a smile to your face. With 18 windows (yes, 18!) it is wonderfully light, bright, well planned and fitted to a very high specification with handmade and hand-painted units, marble worktops and cills, a large island unit and integral appliances including an Everhot range, two fridges and two freezers and a dishwasher.

5 Easy to look after and undoubtedly even more easier to enjoy Walk out from the kitchen through bi-folding doors to a terrace of mellow golden flagstones, the garden is west-facing with stone walls bordering open fields. The generous terrace has unspoilt views and will easily accommodate a range of outside furniture - it s a lovely spot for sitting, eating, having a few friends over for a barbeque! Working on the basis that this is Yorkshire, and let s be honest, it does rain from time to time, the verandah offers undercover potential. Stone steps lead to the lower garden with a level lawn - make sure you turn back towards the house to admire the impressive retaining wall. If you ve got green fingers the potential to plant alpines in the nooks and crannies will soon have you reaching for the plant catalogue! With the potential for an open fire you need somewhere dry and ventilated to stack your wood - this has been provided as well as a substantial garden store (294 sq ft [27.3 sq m]) with plumbing for a WC here so it could be upgraded to a workshop, home office or gym.
