Full Sutton, YO41

A stunning period home, built in 1860 by the renowned architect Thomas Pearson, the hall is a handsome Victorian residence standing proudly in its own extensive grounds, set well back from the road and approached by a long gravelled driveway. Original period features are in glorious evidence throughout – including ornate plaster work, deep cornicing and picture rails, sash windows and stripped floorboards, feature fireplaces with working fires. All of these original features, however, have been complemented by an extensive programme of renovation and restoration – blending period style with modern comforts in a grand setting. The house purveys a beautiful blend of elegance, opulence and comfort, which is ideal for the family. The main house offers extensive accommodation with a separable annexe for a dependent relative or an ideal work from home suite. There is also a cottage which can produce a source of income as a holiday or longer term let. The house was chosen as a prime example of Victorian finery and appeared in the costume drama of the televised version of Winifred Holtby’s novel South Riding. Full Sutton Hall stands in gardens and grounds that extend to approximately 1 acre and are predominantly laid to lawn with many mature trees. The house is approached via a long gravelled driveway providing extensive parking, two garages and three store rooms, and at the side of the house, double wrought iron gates lead into a private courtyard with the coach house at the northern end. A further set of wrought iron gates set into tall brick pillars lead out from the opposite end of the courtyard to the gardens at the rear of the house and also to a secondary driveway leading out to the main road.
