Welcome to Gatekeepers House, a beautifully charming residence that has been skilfully extended and comprehensively modernised in recent years.

Originally dating back to the mid-1850s, Gatekeepers Cottage once served as the gatekeeper’s house for the historic Cawood Railway Station. When the current owners acquired the property in 2019, it was a tired home in need of care. Since then, they have embarked on a meticulous programme of renovation and modernisation, transforming it into the stunning home it is today.

In 2022, major works were undertaken, including the successful construction of a single-storey rear extension and a complete reconfiguration of the kitchen to create a stunning open-plan living and dining area.

Built in heritage-style antique brick with an apex roof and bespoke grey bi-fold doors, the extension has become an invaluable addition to the property—enhancing the flow of the ground floor and creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces.

Upon entering the home, you are welcomed into a small entrance lobby providing access to the lounge, with stairs rising to the first-floor accommodation.

The lounge sits to the front of the property and offers a warm yet spacious setting, with dual-aspect windows to the front and side elevations. A centrally positioned inset log burner provides a charming focal point, while an understairs cupboard offers useful storage.

From the lounge, a doorway leads through to the impressive open-plan kitchen and living space. The kitchen features an extensive range of Shaker-style wall and base units finished with luxurious black granite worktops and centred around a generous island. A selection of high-quality integrated appliances ensures both style and practicality.

The extension maximises the available space beautifully, boasting vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light through twin Velux windows and large bi-fold doors. This bright and versatile area provides the perfect setting for both everyday family living and entertaining guests.

The ground floor is further enhanced by a secondary house bathroom, which has been recently updated by the current owners. This stylish space features a modern walk-in shower, a vanity unit with hand wash basin, and a low-flush WC. There is also a useful built-in storage area, adding to the practicality of the room.
