Westlands, Bilton-in-Ainsty, York, YO26 7LH For over twenty years this has been the perfect family home, which can be attributed to its extensive plot measuring approximately 1.25 acres, spacious accommodation, stunning gardens and catchment to King James and Tadcaster Grammar School. The owners have extremely fond memories of their children playing and camping with friends in the extensive gardens, but feel the time is right to allow another family to enjoy the home and its surroundings.

There is a fitted kitchen and utility room with opportunity to extend the property to the rear to create an open kitchen dining living area (subject to planning consent). A downstairs WC completes the ground floor accommodation. To the first floor are four well proportioned bedrooms, the master bedroom in particular is very generous in size and leads to a contemporary en-suite bathroom. In addition, modern house bathroom completes the first floor accommodation. The jewel in the crown to this family home are the gardens which are quite simply stunning! With extensive lawned gardens this is the ideal place for children to play. There are so many areas of the garden to explore and enjoy, including a 'secret garden' with its own mini statue of a buddha! Beyond this, the garden opens out again into an extensive lawned area with bench, the current owners tell us that this is the ideal spot watch the sunrise with a cup of coffee. A wooded area provides the ideal nature reserve with hedgehog and nesting boxes, bluebells, daffodils, tulips, wood anemone and other wild flowers.
