At Moreby Hall, York, YO19 6FR
A rare opportunity to own part of the historically significant Grade II* Listed Moreby Hall, an exceptional country house estate set within approximately 12 acres of private landscaped parkland overlooking the River Ouse.
Converted into just 11 individually designed residences, Moreby Hall combines carefully restored period architecture with sophisticated contemporary interiors. The Residence Below is arguably the most distinctive of these homes, occupying the magnificent lower ground floor and extending to over 5,000 sq ft of exceptionally versatile accommodation.
Magnificent vaulted brick ceilings, exposed architectural detailing and carefully positioned courtyards and lightwells give the residence a unique character, while the contemporary specification has been designed to complement the history of the building.
At the heart of the home is an impressive open-plan breakfast kitchen, dining and living space measuring approximately 20ft x 30ft, complemented by an elegant sitting room with bespoke cocktail bar. The accommodation provides four luxurious bedroom suites, beautifully appointed bathrooms and additional powder rooms, together with a separate utility room.
A spectacular leisure space offers further flexibility and can be configured as a dedicated cinema and media room or, optionally, a luxury resistance and splash pool. The property also benefits from an innovative dual-entrance arrangement, allowing the guest accommodation to be accessed independently from the principal living areas and providing excellent potential for multi-generational living or greater privacy for visitors.
For purchasers reserving early, there is also the rare opportunity to personalise elements of the interior specification, including the kitchen, bathrooms, cabinetry, flooring and finishes, creating a home tailored to individual tastes.
Despite its historic surroundings, the residence incorporates modern technology and energy-efficient systems, including a Daikin Air Source Heat Pump, high-speed broadband, Sky TV integration and EV charging.
Externally, residents enjoy access to approximately 12 acres of professionally maintained parkland and landscaped grounds, together with four allocated parking spaces. The Residence Below also has its own private west-facing garden retreat with a bespoke pavilion incorporating an open-plan entertaining area, kitchen and powder room – an idyllic setting from which to enjoy the surrounding countryside and evening sunsets.
Moreby Hall is perfectly positioned between the picturesque villages of Naburn and Stillingfleet, offering a wonderful balance between rural tranquillity and city connectivity. York city centre is approximately six miles away, while the nearby A64 provides convenient access to the A1(M) and wider national motorway network.
Naburn, approximately 2.2 miles away, offers a range of village amenities including a primary school, church, village hall and play area, together with The Blacksmiths Arms, York Marina and Waterside Café, the Yorkshire Ouse Sailing Club and a local riding centre. York Designer Outlet is also approximately 10 minutes away by car.
York railway station provides excellent East Coast Main Line services, with London King’s Cross reachable in under two hours on the fastest services, while Leeds, Harrogate and the wider Yorkshire region are all readily accessible. Leeds Bradford Airport is approximately an hour away by car.
Combining remarkable scale, architectural heritage, contemporary luxury and an exceptional private setting, The Residence Below represents a genuinely rare opportunity to create an individual home within one of Yorkshire’s most distinguished country house estates.
