AMIDST landscaped grounds and an impressive courtyard sits Derwent Court, a former stable block for one of the region’s most impression buildings, Howsham Hall.

Dating back to about 1612 when it was built for Sir William Bamburgh, Howsham Hall added a stable block to its already impressive building during the mid-1700s.

In 2003 that stable block, built by Nathaniel Cholmley, was converted into nine apartments, which all share an impressive entrance hall and enjoy views of the surrounding countryside.

Number four Derwent Court offers spacious ground floor accommodation and three bedrooms in this Grade II listed conversion.

The open plan sitting room, with a combined spacious dining area, is flooded with natural light from the large windows, which offer stunning views of the surrounding countryside of the Yorkshire Wolds and North York Moors. The kitchen has feature beams and comes fullyequipped with painted units, granite work surfaces and quality integrated appliances. The adjoining utility room offers more storage space.

Walking back into the entrance hall, which features exposed brick work and an arched feature wall, wooden doors lead into the bedrooms, two of which have en-suite bathrooms.

The third bedroom could double up as a snug and there is also a separate shower room.

Situated in an idyllic rural setting, Derwent Court has communal gardens and grounds, including a tennis court and a gym. The property also has a secure covered parking bay for two cars and a secure storage area.

Howsham is just 7.5 miles from Malton and within easy commuting distance of York and Leeds. The area itself is a small hamlet with the beautiful Yorkshire Wolds and the North York Moors on the doorstep.

Viewing is highly recommended for this property, which is on the market with Carter Jonas at £329,950.
