Description

In 1925, Adela Shaw who came from a notable, local family played a major role in the building of a new hospital in Kirkbymoorside, to provide orthopaedic care for children of which there were many throughout Yorkshire requiring urgent medical attention. This new hospital was to become a life-long commitment for Adela Shaw and her name became synonymous with child welfare in Yorkshire. No. 4 is believed to have been built to provide doctor's accommodation but since the hospital's closure in the 1970's it has been home to various owners who have enjoyed the benefits of it's location, the surrounding garden which attracts many species of wild birds and the spacious rooms with high ceilings that are evident throughout the property.

Heating is via a mains gas boiler, windows are all double glazed and there are solar pv panels. The electrics have recently been overhauled and an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) will be provided on sale. The kitchen is fitted with a range of modern wall and base units and will easily accommodate a breakfast table for every day dining. Both the sitting room and living/dining room enjoy a westerly outlook across the garden, ideally placed for evening sunsets. There are three double bedrooms and a bathroom which, along with some of the decor, would benefit from some general upgrading. A large roof void offers scope for conversion subject to the usual planning permission and building regulations.

2 timber framed garages provide good space for vehicles/motorbikes or alternatively workshop space and there is stacks of parking on the brick set drive in front including a charging point. The level gardens are made up of lawn, soft fruit & veg garden, lily pond, greenhouse and well stocked borders all neatly enclosed by fenced boundaries.
