A wonderful family home located in a sought-after and well-established residential area on the favourable western side of Ripon, ideally placed for families with schools, countryside walks and Ripon city centre all within easy reach.

The attractive, traditional-style façade gives little away about the stunning interior that lies beyond... Stepping inside reveals an elegant and sumptuous haven of great quality, combining versatile and functional accommodation with soothing colour palettes to complement the first class finishes an natural light.

To cater for the demands of their growing family, the owners enlarged the house with a substantial, superbly designed two-storey extension and carried out a significant program of modernisation and improvement. The accommodation now offers beautifully appointed, contemporary living space to suit the modern lifestyle, with a fabulous dining kitchen as the centrepiece, and five versatile bedrooms. The impressive specification, with stylish and thoughtful fixtures and fittings throughout, compliments the immaculate presentation resulting in a home that is both eye-catching and thoroughly practical.

An inviting entrance hall sets the tone for the deceptively spacious accommodation and leads into a tranquil and well-proportioned sitting room with window to the front and feature fireplace.

There is a generous under-stairs cupboard and a useful downstairs WC. The practical utility room has a door to the back garden and access to the integral garage. The restful ambience and surprising proportions continue to impress on the first Floor. Bedroom one has the luxury of an en-suite shower room while the four further bedrooms allow great flexibility for a wide range of purposes and are served by a smart house bathroom. The boarded-out loft space in the extension is used as a gym.

A block-paved drive provides parking for two cars and leads to the integral garage which has an electric roller door. The particularly neat back garden is another example of the owner's attention to detail, skilfully landscaped to include a shaped lawn with stocked borders, paved patio areas, and a number of very useful timber stores.
