A rare and handsome four-bedroom detached property awaits your vision in the highly coveted village of Sutton upon Derwent, set within a generous two-thirds of an acre.

A rare and exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial four-bedroom detached residence, superbly positioned in the heart of the highly sought-after village of Sutton upon Derwent.

Requiring a full programme of renovation, the property offers scope to create a truly impressive family home. Once sympathetically restored, it has the potential to become a landmark residence within this desirable village community.

The property stands within a generous plot of approximately two-thirds of an acre, enjoying a high degree of privacy and space. A long driveway provides ample off-street parking, while a collection of four outbuildings offers outstanding potential for a range of uses, subject to the necessary planning consents. These include:

* A brick-built barn/store beneath a pitched pantile roof
* A brick-built garage and store, also with a pitched pantile roof
* A timber former billiards room, carpeted internally, under a sheet-covered roof
* A steel-framed Nissen hut with corrugated sheeting, suspected to contain asbestos

These outbuildings could be transformed into a home office, gym, studio, annexe, or additional garaging—offering exceptional flexibility within your own private estate.

Extending to over 2,200 sq ft, the internal layout is generous and well-balanced. The ground floor includes three distinct reception rooms, ideal for both formal entertaining and relaxed family life, as well as a large conservatory overlooking the gardens. Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms are served by a central family bathroom—each space brimming with potential for stylish redesign.

The property is being sold subject to the following provisions:

* Overage Agreement: The purchaser will be required to enter into an overage agreement, under which 30% of any uplift in land value resulting from the grant of planning permission or future development of the site will be payable to the current owner. This overage provision will remain in place for 30 years from completion and will be secured by a legal charge. The uplift will be assessed as the difference between the base value at the point of sale and the enhanced value attributable to any consented or implemented scheme.

* Design Approval Covenant: Any future development will be subject to a covenant requiring prior written approval from the current owner for the design, layout, and materials of any proposed scheme. Consent will not be unreasonably withheld and will be protected by a title restriction.

Full details of these provisions will be set out in the legal documentation.

Sutton upon Derwent is one of the region’s most desirable villages, offering a superb quality of life just a short drive from the city of York. With its welcoming community, local amenities, and access to countryside walks, it’s an ideal location for families and professionals alike.

Given the size of the plot, the versatility of the accommodation, and the outstanding village location, early viewing is strongly advised to avoid disappointment. This is far more than a house—it’s a unique opportunity to create a dream home in an exceptional setting.

The next steps...

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

  • You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
  • They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
  • Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.

If other offers have been made on a property we aren't legally able to tell you what they are, but we may indicate if they were close to the asking price.

If you have a property to sell, why not see how we can help you.
