Described by selling agents Blenkin & Co (01904 671672) as ‘a once-in-a-generation opportunity’, dreamy The Old Vicarage at Warthill, six miles north-east of York, is a classic, mellow brick Victorian house dating from 1864, which is now in need of renovation following the death of its owner.
The agents quote a guide price of £795,000 for the cherished 4,621sq ft family house on three floors, which sits in five acres of gardens and wood- land in an idyllic edge-of-village location, with views over open farmland on all sides. The sale comprises numerous outbuildings, including original stabling, stores, garages, a groom’s flat and a small stone piggery.
