Totally lust after this house

[Northernlurker]

It was sold a couple of years ago but it needed work then. Now it's back. SO GORGEOUS! Anybody want to lend me about 2.2 million?

Lovely garden and library room - not too keen on the purple though.

[scatterthenuns]

I hate it. The outside is nice, but I'd have to gut the insides!

[Northernlurker]

You can't gut the inside! That's the special bit
I dread to think how much the owners have spent on it. It needed new heating, the works last time it was on the market.

[bilbodog]

wow - gorgeous - I love Arts and Crafts and a Gertrude Jekyll garden! Please invite me to visit when you have bought it............... I'll bring wine!

[DoTheDuckFace]

I like the outside too but all that wood everywhere, not for me.

[SqueezyCheeseWeasel]

Too much wood paneling for me, I'm not keen on Arts and Crafts houses, though I can appreciate the quality of the restoration. The purple kitchen is an abomination though.

[mysteryfairy]

Inconsiderate to only take 12 photos! I'd like to see the lot.

Wouldn't want to live there. Quite like the lilac aga but less keen on the island!

[Pipbin]

I claim that pictures 5 and 6 are of the same room with different furniture.

[RaphaellaTheSpanishWaterDog]

Yes please, I love it - but don't like some of the more contemporary touches, especially that awful island (although the lilac Aga is fab!). A Gertrude Jekyll garden too....wonderful!

We are huge Arts & Crafts fans/collectors and our current house has an Arts & Crafts extension complete with original features, so I guess it was bound to float my boat.

If you buy it OP, I'll be popping along with Bilbodog for a visit.....will also bring wine......

[pearlgirl]

If you buy it I'll walk up for a g&t in the garden.

[Bunbaker]

I love the gardens. Not sure about all the wood panelling inside.

[Toomuch2young]

Hmm it's different anyway but for that money if want a lot more land and stables and a swimming pool
Not that I would mind if someone gave it to me, obviously!

[bigkidsdidit]

It's gorgeous. I love wood panelling. Up here in Scotland arts and crafts houses are often under a million, I'll find one for you

[bigkidsdidit]

It's not 'mock style' anything it's original arts and crafts

[JassyRadlett]

Gosh. They like purple, don't they?

Another who's not a fan of wood panelling. Love the garden.

[bigkidsdidit]

Actually northern you can keep yours I'm having this one

[HeartsTrumpDiamonds]

I agree about the photos - all that house and only 12 photos - and half of them exterior shots! I want to see more of the inside.

[Pipbin]

Was that one the house where BBC 4 had the program about the couple moving out, Big?

[HeartsTrumpDiamonds]

bigkids that is amazing. Can you re link to the actual listing so we can see where it is and more crucially how much

[bigkidsdidit]

Does that not link?

[bigkidsdidit]

No idea, pipbin, found it on a rightmove search of areas j like

[kickassangel]

I love York and really like that house.

I could tolerate the kitchen island, although it probably wouldn't be hard to change the door colors. I would have to say that I wasn't like that woman in Breaking Bad though.

[nannyplumislostinspace]

It's probably haunted if they are selling so soon!

[YeOldeTrout]

omg, Pipbin, well spotted re the furniture swapping.
