The Property
Rose House is a magnificent Grade II listed home with over 4,000 sq. ft of beautifully proportioned accommodation arranged across three generous floors. Dating from the mid-18th century with elegant 19th-century additions, the property enjoys a south- facing frontage with handsome limestone elevations, while internally it showcases a wealth of original period features including exposed timber beams, ornate Victorian tiles, elegant fireplaces, and sash windows that flood the rooms with natural light.

The current owners have undertaken an extensive and sensitive programme of improvements. These include the addition of the contemporary garden room, underfloor heating, new chimneys and dormers, conservation-grade leadwork and lime re-pointing, renewable heating and, most strikingly, the complete re-imagining of the gardens.

The impressive entrance hall sets the tone, featuring patterned tiled flooring and exposed timber beams. The formal drawing room is elegantly appointed with a Burley Hardwick log burner set within a limestone surround and granite hearth, complimented by two tall sash windows with charming window seats. Beyond lies the dual aspect garden room, a contemporary addition with floor-to-ceiling glazing, built in speaker system and uninterrupted views across the landscaped gardens and wrap-around York stone terrace.

The ground floor also includes a playroom, a snug featuring an original bread oven and a formal dining room with slate flooring, wall to wall bookshelves, window seats and shutters and a fireplace with a stove. The adjoining kitchen is well equipped with fitted units, granite worktops, integrated appliances and a range cooker, with ample space for a farmhouse table. A pantry, utility/laundry room and shower room complete the ground floor accommodation.

The turned staircase leads to the first floor, where there are three well presented double bedrooms and a useful office. The principal bedroom is a particularly impressive space with dual sash windows, a cast iron fireplace, window seats, a dressing room and an en-suite shower room. Two additional family bathrooms serve this floor.
