Description

Conveniently located only a few minutes walk from the centre of Pickering stands Heathcote House, an elegant double fronted period town house; the subject of a major restoration project by the current owners who are well versed in the art of interior design and refurbishment. A common thread running through the house is the clever balance of old and new, alongside careful attention to detail. The front façade remains true to its origins with wrought iron railings, sash windows and neatly pointed stonework. An intricate mosaic tiled floor greets you in the entrance hall and leads the way to marble fireplaces, moulded cornices, ceiling roses and a beautiful staircase and landing with double aspect and stained glass features. But what gives this property the real ‘wow’ factor is the stylish interior design. Vibrant colour schemes, low energy lighting and contemporary fixtures and fittings work in harmony throughout and the state of the art Kitchen extension with its lantern roof, under floor heating, extensive glazing and an array of integrated appliances has undoubtedly become the hub of the house. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms and a house bathroom. The master bedroom suite occupies the entire second floor with his n’ hers dressing rooms and a luxurious bathroom. Outside there is a secluded patio and barbecue area that in turn leads to a lawned garden, car parking and garaging. In summary…. a beautiful, comfortable, functional home.
