About this property

Nestled in the popular town of Kirkbymoorside, North Yorkshire, is this wonderful 19th century stone-built townhouse, Jack's House. Enjoying a superb location on the edge of the North York Moors National Park, with local amenities right on your doorstep, Jack's House is a fantastic choice for couples or a family of five. The property benefits from nearby roadside parking, and a private enclosed patio with garden furniture, perfect for evenings spent dining alfresco. On the ground floor, you will find a fully-equipped kitchen, where you can whip up your best dishes, ready to savour at the dining table over a celebratory bottle of fizz. After dinner, you can retreat to the inviting sitting room and relax in front of the log effect fire as your favourite show plays out on the Smart TV. Head up to the first floor, where you’ll find a sleek bathroom, complete with bath and overhead shower, along with the first of three bedrooms, a large double with plenty of storage. Continue up to the second floor, where you will find the two remaining bedrooms, a spacious king-size and a pretty single, both of which also have plenty of storage. Explore the town, where you can treat your loved ones to a meal out at the welcoming pubs such as The George and The King’s Head, have a coffee at The Buttercross or the Corner Café, and excellent bakeries and cake shops, a traditional butchers, and delicatessens are just a few steps from the front door. Fans of the TV series Yorkshire Auction House won’t be able to resist walking down to Ryedale Auction House to spot Angus and his team, and golfers will be delighted with the picturesque Kirkbymoorside Golf Club. There are many tourist attractions within an easy drive from the town, including the popular market towns of Malton, and Helmsley, delightful moorside villages such as Lastingham, Rosedale and Hutton Le Hole, the famous Castle Howard, and Flamingo Land. From nearby Pickering you can take a steam train on the North York Moors Railway across the moors, which will be familiar to fans of the TV series Heartbeat. For scenic hikes and walks, venture further into the North York Moors National Park, where you’ll find the renowned attractions of Rievaulx Abbey and Mount Grace Priory House and Gardens. For a taste of the city life, the historic town of York with its majestic York Minster and old city walls is about a 40-minute drive away and the popular seaside towns of Scarborough and Whitby are a similar distance. All this and more awaits at Jack's House.

Situated between Helmsley and Pickering, on the edge of North York Moors National Park, is the charming old market town of Kirkbymoorside. It's a hub for the surrounding farms and villages, and it exudes a charming, authentic Yorkshire vibe. The town has a wide range of retail establishments, from teahouses and pubs to restaurants and antique shops, and every Wednesday is market day. Hutton-le-Hole and Lastingham, as well as the National Park's excellent walking and magnificent scenery, are conveniently located. Traveling on the North York Moors Steam Railway is an absolute must for anyone visiting the area, and the train's terminus is in Pickering. It's not hard to get to Castle Howard, York, Whitby, and the rest of the Yorkshire coast.
