A substantial 5 bedroom detached period farmhouse in need of modernisation and offering development opportunities, subject to planning approval, in the centre of this popular North Yorkshire village.

The sale of Grange Farmhouse offers a rare opportunity to acquire a significant village dwelling with tremendous scope to renovate and create a lovely family home. Alternatively, there may be the possibility of residential development on the site subject to obtaining the necessary planning approval. The vendors have not made any approaches to the local planning authorities and conditional offers for the property wouldn’t be considered in this instance.

Kirby Hill is a conveniently located village just 1½ miles north of the market town of Boroughbridge. The village has a primary school, church and pub with a much wider choice of amenities and facilities in Boroughbridge itself. There is ready access onto the A1(M) providing easy access to principal Yorkshire centres and for travel further afield.

The accommodation briefly includes a spacious reception hall with access down to a storage cellar and there are three reception rooms together with a breakfast kitchen, large pantry and utility room at ground floor level. There are two separate staircases leading up to the first floor where there is a principal bedroom with en suite shower room, three further bedrooms, study/bedroom 5 and a house bathroom.

Outside there are two separate vehicular accesses from Leeming Lane providing off street parking and there are two brick outbuildings and space for a garage if required, subject to planning.

The house sits in quite a generous enclosed plot with principally lawned gardens to the rear with boundary walls and mature trees affording a good degree of privacy.

DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNTIES

Clearly the property is in need of significant modernisation, However, if demolished, there would be sufficient scope for 2 new detached houses with there being 2 vehicular accesses. Alternatively, a terrace of 3 or 4 houses may be appropriate. Any such development will be subject to planning approval.

The next steps...

Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
