Rare Georgian Yorkshire gem
A rare gem of a Georgian house, just a few miles from Sledmere in Yorkshire, has been launched on the market


‘It's like a Georgian doll's house, set in the midst of steep dales and rolling Wolds countryside, a few miles from Sledmere,’ says vintage-fashion specialist Tim Genn, who lives here with his wife, Amanda, and two children, Rufus and Christabel.
‘Georgian houses like this are incredibly rare here.’

Country Life is unlike any other magazine: the only glossy weekly on the newsstand and the only magazine that has been guest-edited by HRH The King not once, but twice. It is a celebration of modern rural life and all its diverse joys and pleasures — that was first published in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year. Our eclectic mixture of witty and informative content — from the most up-to-date property news and commentary and a coveted glimpse inside some of the UK's best houses and gardens, to gardening, the arts and interior design, written by experts in their field — still cannot be found in print or online, anywhere else.
