Read the full agent description

This fantastic four-bedroom home in the sought-after village of Thorpe Willoughby has been kept in impeccable condition since being built in 2018, making it a perfect choice for families looking for a great mix of space, style and comfort. It is being sold by the original owners.

It sits proudly on a corner plot, boasting significant kerb appeal, ensuring it stands out even on the well-maintained Sherwood Croft development.

Entering into the wide and light entrance hall, you will first step into the spacious lounge, which spans the length of the house with wide French doors opening out onto the rear garden, allowing for an abundance of natural light.

The house boasts a second reception room with windows on two sides. Currently functioning as a dining room, the room would be equally usable as a playroom, large office or even a fifth bedroom if required.

To the rear of the house, you will find a well-appointed kitchen with plenty of space to host a dining table. This is a great social area with large amounts of space for preparation and storage. The kitchen is fully equipped with a gas cooker and multiple integrated appliances (including dishwasher). A second set of garden-facing French doors allows for a true indoor/outdoor feel for when the need arises - and the weather permits!

The ground floor is completed by a large guest WC.

Heading upstairs, you will find four generously sized bedrooms, meaning no arguing between the kids over who gets which room! The principal bedroom also boasts a large, modern ensuite shower room and fitted wardrobes, with fitted wardrobes also in two of the other three bedrooms.

Outside the house, the upgraded rear garden is a gem. The sense of privacy is obvious as soon as you step outside onto the large stone-paved patio area, which adjoins a well-maintained lawn and flowerbeds. A real joy for the green-fingered among us. A large summer house completes this tranquil, secure garden. A perfect spot to relax with a good book on a summer’s day.

The front of the house enjoys an attractive front garden with off-street parking for multiple vehicles. The spacious garage sits externally to the house, offering the opportunity for additional storage or even a home gym.

The house sits on the well-regarded Sherwood Drive development on the edge of the highly sought-after village of Thorpe Willoughby. A relaxing, family-focused development has several play parks and open spaces, perfect for kids playing out or family play. In addition, Brayton Barff is just a couple of minutes' walk away and is a perfect nature walk for exercise, relaxation, or to walk the family dog.

Thorpe Willoughby is well located with plenty of amenities to aid family life. The village boasts a great pub, a pharmacy, a wonderful fish & chip shop and several small supermarkets. Selby itself is just 5 minutes away by car, with plenty of larger supermarkets, restaurants and more right on your doorstep.

It is also home to a well-regarded primary school and very convenient for both Selby High School and the OFSTED Outstanding-rated Brayton Academy.

Commuters will find the village incredibly useful. Access to the M62, A1 and A19 is incredibly easy for those travelling by car. For rail commuters, Selby station is nearby and offers direct train links to Leeds, York, Manchester, Hull and even London.

More locally, the village is also served by several local bus routes.
