FINDING the ideal location for a new house can be hard; you want the tranquil realms of the countryside, but need the balance of knowing you won’t have far to drive for a pint of milk.

This East Lutton property, just 12 miles from Malton and 10 from Driffield, could be the answer.

On the market with Boulton Cooper Stephensons at £425,000, this village situated family home is even in the ideal spot for taking in the historic sights of York or heading to Scarborough for a trip to the seaside.

The four-bedroom detached family home, named Grainway, has an enclosed garden to the front of the house with a private driveway complete with double garage, leading to the back garden’s ‘al fresco’ patio area.

A wrought iron archway decorated with a creeping rose leads through to a private lawned garden with flowerbed borders and some fruit trees.

A greenhouse, timber garden shed, outside tap and security lighting complete the garden to make it a gardener’s haven, even at night.

Stepping in to the individually designed house through the double glazed wooden framed front door, you will find yourself standing in a spacious entrance hall complete with cloak cupboard before entering the kitchen. The double height ceiling adds to the grandeur and spaciousness of the house, while the black granite work surfaces add a modern touch.

In addition to a utility room and an office, which could also double up as a bedroom, the ground floor of the house has a spacious dining room with French doors opening on to the back garden’s patio.

Three bedrooms, a four-piece suite bathroom and a living room complete with a gas fire set in a stone fireplace can also be found on the ground floor.

If it’s space you’re after, one of the downstairs bedrooms is fitted with wooden wardrobes, fitted bedside cabinets and a wooden dressing table. It also has an en-suite shower room with a built-in vanity unit.

Much like Mary Poppins’ handbag, this unique house keeps producing more and more as you head up the stairs to the first floor where you will be greeted with an open plan living room.

Two large Velux windows make this room incredibly relaxing to be in as the light streams in and you have views across the countryside.

The final bedroom branches off from the upstairs living room and is, like the others, of a fairly large size with plenty of space.

Upstairs has even more space to offer with a store room and even a walk-in-wardrobe.

A white three-piece bathroom suite finishes the upstairs of the house making it an almost self-contained flat.
