Main Street, Kellington, DN14 0NE

Occupying a prominent position on Main Street in the popular North Yorkshire village of Kellington, this exceptional four-bedroom home has undergone an extensive programme of refurbishment over recent years, creating a property that combines the character and proportions of an established home with the finish and convenience expected from a much newer property.

This is a home designed around modern family life.

Generous bedrooms, multiple reception spaces, an outstanding open-plan kitchen and living area and excellent additional accommodation above the garage combine to make this a particularly versatile property.

The transformation is apparent before even stepping through the front door.

The attractive stone-fronted exterior is complemented by a newly landscaped front garden, paved driveway and secure gated access, giving the house considerable kerb appeal as well as providing excellent off-street parking.

Inside, you will head into a welcoming, spacious entrance hall and be immediately grabbed by the sense of quality that permeates the entire house.

The centrepiece of the ground floor is undoubtedly the superb open-plan kitchen, dining and family living space.

Extensively redesigned as part of the refurbishment, this is a wonderfully sociable area that provides the sort of everyday family space increasingly sought after by modern buyers.

The newly installed kitchen features an extensive range of contemporary Shaker-style cabinetry, contrasting work surfaces, integrated appliances and attractive brass detailing.

The induction hob boasts a restaurant-grade downdraft extractor hob.

A breakfast bar and substantial central island provides further storage, preparation space and informal seating, while the size of the adjoining dining and living areas allows the whole family to be together without the space ever feeling crowded.

The neutral décor, extensive glazing and doors onto the outside areas help create a particularly light and inviting environment.

Importantly, the open-plan accommodation hasn't come at the expense of separate living spaces. There are two additional reception rooms, providing considerable flexibility for a growing family.

One makes a superb, more formal lounge, while the second provides a cosy snug complete with log-burning stove – ideal for quieter evenings away from the main family space.

Equally, these rooms could accommodate a home office, children's playroom or hobby room depending upon the needs of the next owners.

A stylish ground-floor WC completes the accommodation on this level.

The quality continues upstairs, where visitors will be struck by the wide, open landing creating a true sense of space and light on the first floor.

All four bedrooms are doubles, something that considerably enhances the house's credentials as a long-term family home rather than somewhere likely to be outgrown.

The principal bedroom suite is particularly impressive and incorporates both its own ensuite shower room and a dedicated walk-in wardrobe, creating a genuine suite rather than simply a bedroom with an ensuite.

The remaining three bedrooms are also generously proportioned doubles, making the accommodation particularly suitable for families with older children or buyers requiring substantial guest and home-working space.

Serving the bedrooms is a superb newly fitted family bathroom. Finished in a contemporary style, it features an eye-catching freestanding bath together with a large separate walk-in shower.

This is truly a luxurious bathroom with the ‘wow' factor in spades. The refurbishment has extended well beyond cosmetic improvements.

Alongside the new kitchen and bathrooms, the property has benefitted from new windows and doors together with a replacement boiler, creating a home into which buyers can move and immediately enjoy.

In addition, the current owners have been successfully granted planning permission to build into the loft and convert it into a space with two additional bedrooms and a bathroom.

Ideal for those who may look to expand in future without needing to uproot the family. The Garage & Family Room One of the property's most unique and valuable features sits alongside the main house.

Constructed in 2023, the substantial two-storey building provides a genuine double garage with electric front opening doors. Internal stairs lead to a fantastic family room above.

Perfect for teenagers to hang out with their own privacy or even family movie nights laid out on beanbags, popcorn in hand and your favourite film projected onto the sloping ceiling.

This space would also make a perfect, substantial home office for multiple occupants for those who work from home regularly but want true separation between living and working space.

Even more significantly, the garage has been built to full building regulations which would allow future owners to convert the garage building into an annexe (subject to planning permission).

This gives the property an exciting additional dimension for buyers looking towards the future.

It could potentially provide independent accommodation for an elderly relative, older child or other family member, as well as guest accommodation or a more substantial home-working arrangement, subject of course to the details and conditions of the existing permission.

It is a feature that considerably broadens the long-term flexibility of the property and is relatively unusual to find alongside an already substantial four-bedroom family home.

Outdoor Spaces The outside space has also received considerable attention.

To the front, the recently completed landscaping provides smart lawns, extensive paving and secure gated access to the driveway and garage.

To the rear is an enclosed garden arranged to offer both lawned and paved seating areas, providing space for children, entertaining and outdoor dining without creating an unnecessarily demanding garden to maintain.

Together with the gated parking and substantial garage, it makes the exterior every bit as practical for family life as the accommodation inside.

Living in Kellington Kellington offers an appealing balance for families wanting village life while remaining well connected to the surrounding towns and wider road network.

The village sits roughly midway between Selby and Pontefract and benefits from convenient access to both the A19 and M62, making it a useful base for those commuting throughout Yorkshire.

Families are particularly well catered for by Kellington Primary School, which serves children from ages 3 to 11 and describes itself as being at the heart of the local community.

The village also has a pub, hotel and restaurant, village hall, children's playground and an active local community.

The nearby Kellington Carrs provide an attractive area for wildlife and birdwatching.

For a family wanting more space without sacrificing accessibility, Kellington provides an attractive alternative to a larger town, with the amenities of Selby, Pontefract and the surrounding area remaining within straightforward reach.
