House (Detached)

Set back from the road and occupying generous grounds Scalby House is a detached house built in the 1930’s and has since been extended to create a wonderful and generously proportioned family home. The house possesses a great deal of character over two floors with original doors, picture rails and fire places within very light and airy rooms. A welcoming entrance hall leads to a kitchen dining room with Aga, as well as electric hob and oven and a range of units under granite worktops. There is also a utility room. On the opposite side of the house, off the hallway, there is a morning room, snug and spacious sitting room that looks out to the gardens at the side and rear, and a wc and study. Upstairs are five bedrooms leading off charming and well-lit landing. The main bedroom has a dual aspect with built in wardrobes and an en suite shower room. An equally well-proportioned bedroom on the opposite side of the house also has an en suite and walk in wardrobe. The other three bedrooms look to a family bathroom. The position of Scalby House is most noteworthy with an array of magnificent trees at both the front and the rear that serve to enhance the house and its outlook. Approaching the house along its private drive the house emerges from amongst the fine specimens that enclose it. The grounds at the rear can be accessed via a five bar gate at the side for anything sizeable. The rear garden is mainly laid as lawn and flanked on each side by high hedges and trees; with a disused tennis court that could be re-instated or used as a useful foot print.
