Once a farmhouse dating back to 1799, and on the site of an earlier manor, Grade ll Listed Church Cliff House stands above Filey Bay within seven acres of grounds, that include establishe­d gardens and paddocks.

The imposing Georgian property, that has been home to just three families in the past 120 years, has been refurbishe­d with care.

Its luxurious kitchen has bespoke, Stirling and Jones hand-made units, with a Lacanche Range Cooker, Nero granite worktops, travertine stone floor and a breakfast with living area that looks out over the gardens.

A laundry room and a walkin pantry add to the facilities.

In the drawing room with full length windows, a marble fireplace draws the eye, and the large shutters are original ones. Another feature of note is a lovely arched window on the half landing of an impressive returning staircase.

With an entrance hall and four reception rooms in total, the house also has a study and cellars.

There are five bedrooms in addition to the master bedroom suite, and a guest bedroom suite, along with two further bathrooms.

The house, built in English brick with stone dressings and a hipped slate roof, has two garages and several outbuildin­gs.

Rear gardens include a sheltered York stone patio. A gravel path passes through parkland to a far paddock, and there is a delightful walled garden. An orchard lies within its part-medieval walls, with a pond, herbaceous borders, vegetable beds, a potting shed and greenhouse. Fenced paddocks beyond include a holding paddock and field shelter.
