Introduction

Low Crook House is a truly individual detached residence occupying a beautiful setting within the highly sought-after village of Brantingham, enjoying breathtaking views across the surrounding countryside towards Brantingham Dale.

Comprehensively remodelled and refurbished by the current owners to an exceptional standard, this stunning family home combines beautifully appointed accommodation with considerable character, style and versatility. Tastefully presented throughout, the property offers an enviable lifestyle in a quite delightful setting.

The final piece of the jigsaw awaits its new owner, presenting an exciting opportunity to put their own stamp on this already remarkable home. Beyond the approved planning permission to replace the existing rear garden room with a striking contemporary extension, which will create a sensational open-plan living space when opened through to the day room, there is also scope to personalise the interior further with a bespoke kitchen refit and pantry conversion. Designed to make the very most of the magnificent outlook, these exciting additions would undoubtedly further enhance the property's appeal and its value considerably.

The existing accommodation, depicted on the accompanying floorplan together with plans of the approved extension, is both extensive and beautifully arranged. An impressive central reception hallway sets the tone, leading to a magnificent lounge with exposed ceiling beam and log-burning stove, an elegant dining/sitting room, a versatile bar/home office, boot room, wet room and laundry room. The kitchen adjoins the day room and the substantial garden room, providing the opportunity for the proposed transformation.

To the first floor are four beautifully appointed bedrooms, three of which enjoy en-suite facilities. The principal suite is particularly impressive, incorporating a dedicated dressing room and luxurious en-suite. The fourth bedroom benefits from the unusual advantage of being accessible either from the main house or via its own staircase leading from the side lobby. This arrangement provides excellent flexibility, making it ideal for a teenager, visiting relatives or guests seeking a degree of independence and indeed could become rentable space.

The property is approached along Thorpe Drive, a private lane leading towards Brantinghamthorpe Hall. An attractive brick wall marks the entrance to the cobble-set driveway and generous forecourt, which provides ample parking for several vehicles. To the rear, the gardens are an absolute delight. Beautifully maintained lawns are complemented by a choice of attractive patios and seating areas, including a charming tiled-roof pergola, all perfectly positioned to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The views are simply outstanding, stretching across the adjoining countryside and rising towards the wooded slopes of Brantingham Dale.

It is also worth noting that the current owners enjoy the use of an additional area of adjoining land as a garden, held under a separate rental agreement with a local farmer. We understand that there may be an opportunity for this arrangement to continue, subject to agreement.

In all, Low Crook House is an exceptional family home offering beautifully refurbished accommodation, remarkable versatility and a truly enviable setting. With the added potential to create an extraordinary contemporary living space overlooking Brantingham Dale, this is a rare opportunity indeed. Only a personal inspection can fully convey the quality, individuality and sheer appeal of this wonderful property.
