The Shealing is a truly exceptional family home, beautifully reimagined and finished to an outstanding standard throughout. The name Shealing traditionally refers to a peaceful retreat in the woods, and this home lives up to that meaning perfectly – offering a sense of seclusion, privacy and calm within a discreet and leafy setting. Having undergone a comprehensive programme of renovation, no detail has been overlooked. The result is a stylish yet practical home, thoughtfully designed for modern family living, with high quality fixtures and fittings and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor space. Tucked away in a quiet and hidden position between Harrogate and Knaresborough, the property enjoys open countryside views while remaining exceptionally convenient for commuters, with excellent access to the bypass, the A1(M) and wider transport links. The accommodation is bright, spacious and arranged over two floors. An entrance vestibule opens into a welcoming reception hall with elegant panelling and two sets of glazed double doors, immediately setting the tone for the quality found throughout. To the left is a superb dining room or second reception room, complete with bespoke built-in wall units and storage cupboards. To the rear, the impressive 22’9” x 13’5” sitting room features a Charnwood log-burning stove and two sets of sliding doors opening directly onto the garden. At the heart of the home is the stunning open-plan dining kitchen, designed as a true family and entertaining space. It boasts a large central island, bespoke hand-painted cabinetry, integrated appliances by Fisher & Paykel and a second Charnwood log burner. Bi-fold doors lead out to the garden, effortlessly linking the kitchen with the outdoor seating areas and creating a wonderful flow for both everyday living and entertaining. To the first floor, the principal bedroom is a superb retreat, featuring bespoke fitted wardrobes, a built-in dressing table, sliding glazed doors opening to a Juliet balcony with glass balustrade, and a luxurious en-suite shower room with marble tiling and a digital shower. Across the landing is an equally impressive guest suite, again with fitted wardrobes, French doors to a Juliet balcony and a stylish tiled en-suite shower room. Two further well-proportioned double bedrooms are served by a modern, fully tiled house bathroom. Externally, the property is approached via a private gated entrance leading to a substantial gravel driveway providing parking for numerous vehicles. The south facing rear garden is a real highlight – beautifully landscaped with a generous paved seating area adjoining the kitchen, a well-maintained lawn with planted borders, a pond and a raised terraced seating area at the far end of the garden, ideal for al fresco dining and enjoying the last of the evening sunshine. Completing the outdoor space is a timber-framed summerhouse/home office with power, internet and underfloor heating, providing a superb work-from-home space or peaceful retreat.
