Blecks House, 36 Ruffa Lane, Pickering, YO18 7HN

A rare opportunity to redevelop a sizable period property set within a generous plot located in a well-regarded residential area which is within an easy walk to the centre of the town.

Blecks House is a substantial mid 1950’s detached house set in a generous plot and within an easy walk from the centre of Pickering.

The house has only had two owners since it was built and offers a traditional style of build, some interesting original period details and huge potential for improvement to create an individual family home.

The house layout is versatile and given the size of the plot there is scope to extend the existing accommodation if needed, subject to all necessary planning consents and permissions.

At present the house amounts to around 1,800 square feet of accommodation, which briefly comprises: Entrance hall, a pair of front facing reception rooms, breakfast kitchen with separate pantry, ground floor shower wet room and utility/rear hall.

Upstairs are four bedroom, all being doubles and the main house bathroom. Blecks House stands well back from Ruffa Lane and has a sunny, south facing aspect.

To the front is a well-established and well stocked garden and to the rear is a large expanse of lawn which could be landscaped into garden or to create additional parking if required.

Pickering, known as ‘The Gateway to the Moors’ is a charming market town with a wide range of amenities including primary and secondary schools, sports centre, restaurants, public houses and an array of retailers.
