For sale by modern method of auction
A substantial Listed Georgian family home with a private walled garden that works well as one large family home or could be split to create two 3 storey town houses with gardens. It enjoys a central position overlooking the green in the popular market town of Thirsk which offers excellent road and rail access.

Reception hall, 4 reception rooms, kitchen, back kitchen and large rear hall. Five bedrooms with dressing rooms, games room/studio and a 2 bed teenage floor with study. Private walled garden and three useful stores.

The Property
St James House is a handsome Grade II listed town house providing extensive accommodation which is arranged over three floors. It is believed to date from the mid to late 18th Century and was previously split as both 2 or 3 houses, before being altered to provide one large family home. This could be changed again if so desired, subject to all necessary permissions & consents required. It is currently in a poor condition and will require substantial works to make good, however it could be transformed into a wonderful family home of great character and charm. Opportunities like this are hard to find in such a central location.
