Description

Set in the North York Moors National Park The Old Vicarage is a picturesque late Georgian Country House. It is situated in a stunning location in beautiful gardens with far reaching views across Farndale. The property has been recently renovated and restored and now offers spacious 4 bedroom accommodation with 4 reception rooms, a country kitchen and a large conservatory. In addition Detailed Planning Permission has recently been granted for a new Garage with Studio and Office. Constructed of dressed stone under a blue slate roof, the property became The Vicarage to St Mary’s Church when the North York Moors slate mining industry thrived. The market town of Kirkbymoorside is some 7 miles away to the South where there are good local facilities and shopping. There is a Steiner School at Botton a short drive to the north. The property is within about an hours drive of York, where the main line railway station has excellent countrywide connections and from where London can be reached in under 2 hours.
