IF YOU had to use just one word to sum up Rookery Gardens, you would be hard pressed to better 'charming'.

A truly unique period property, Rookery Gardens has been renovated and updated by the current owner to an exceptional standard, with careful consideration paid to even the smallest of details – and spaces – from the landscaped gardens to the bathrooms.

Rookery Gardens has a wealth of features, including Fired Earth bathrooms, solid wood flooring, quarried tiles and built-in wine racks – all of which sit perfectly alongside the property's olde worlde decor which ranges from a Victorian-inspired bathroom to country chic bedrooms and a dining room and sitting room which hark back to a genteel and refined past.

Briefly, the accommodation comprises a ground floor entrance hall, cloakroom/boot room, kitchen with a breakfasting area, formal dining room with a period fireplace housing a wood-burning stove and living room with a period fire surround.

Upstairs off the landing with its large feature window are four good-sized bedrooms, a shower room and a luxurious bathroom, both of which have recently been refitted.

Rookery Gardens' south-facing walled garden is a particular feature of the property. As well as attractive flower beds and immaculate lawned areas, the rear garden is home to a patio area perfect for outdoor entertaining, a separate garage block with utility area, a home office (attached to the garage) with a wood-burning stove and an attractive stone-built building which is home to a guest bedroom with en-suite shower room.

Rookery Gardens – which is situated in the popular village of Middleton Tyas – is on the market at offers in the region of £439,950. For more details or to arrange a viewing, please contact the Richmond office of Nick & Gordon Carver on 01748 825317.
