The Old Forge is a much-loved family home, believed
to date back around 200 years offering a lucky buyer
the opportunity to acquire a spacious and highly
versatile property with an incredible garden of
approaching half an acre.
The oldest parts of the building feature rugged
exposed beams and the original forge itself is the focal
point within one of the two large reception rooms.
The house has a good flow and has been tastefully
renovated whilst still respecting the age and character
of the property. The kitchen has been fitted with a
range of bespoke cabinets by a local joiner and oak
panelled doors have been installed throughout the
house. The owners have invested in an eco-friendly
central heating system provided via an air-source heat
pump and which attracts quarterly RHI payments of
around £500.
Possibly the most surprising attribute of The Old Forge
is its unusually large garden which extends in a
southerly direction, sloping gently down to Leavening
Beck. The gardens feature a variety of areas and
include sweeping lawns, shrub borders, patios and
mature trees as well as a vegetable patch and chicken
run. A foot bridge leads across the beck to a woodland
copse where steps rise up to meet Leppington Lane.
The gated archway serves as a car-port, a tarmac
driveway leads to a single garage and there is
additional cobbled parking to the front. The total site
area amounts to approximately 0.41 acres.
Leavening is a well-regarded Ryedale village set in
beautiful Wolds countryside, located within an easy
drive of the nearby market town of Malton and
benefits from a good pub and primary school. The city
of York is easily accessible, some 15 miles south-west.
