Council tax band: F.

DESCRIPTION

Tymperon House is a landmark property in Beverley town centre.  The mid 18th century grade II listed detached house is understood to have been built as almshouse accommodation and has latterly been restored and maintained as a very manageable family home offering exceptional features and amenities in the nearby surroundings.  The house is set within an entirely walled plot providing a delightful private landscaped garden to the south and west sides and containing outbuildings including a double garage, store and summerhouse with ample driveway parking - even two spaces outside the gates for visitors.  Internally four bedrooms (one en-suite) and three reception rooms plus modern breakfast kitchen are accessed from an impressive central through hallway/landing with fine staircase and front & rear entrance doors.

LOCATION

A property of this kind is a rare find within such easy reach of the town's central amenities.  A walk of around 150 yards brings you to Saturday Market, at the heart of the Georgian town centre hosting a superb range of specialist and national retailers intermixed with numerous cafe bars and restaurants, along with important buidings of interest.  Closer to hand are the Tesco store and bus station with other amenities in easy reach including the rail station and historic Beverley Minster. The Westwood common pastures  are home to the golf and race courses and the town boasts excellent sporting and recreational facilities which include a theatre and cinema.
