Made for family life, this beautifully extended home has been carefully arranged to give everyone space while keeping the main living areas connected. Step through the front door and you arrive in a central entrance hall, which immediately gives a clear sense of how the ground floor flows. The staircase rises ahead, with a handy ground-floor WC tucked alongside, while the main reception rooms sit to either side.

To one side is the beautiful kitchen and dining room, and this is a space that deserves plenty of attention. Finished in a timeless shaker style, the kitchen combines soft neutral cabinetry with a contrasting dark island and crisp quartz worktops. The quartz runs across the main preparation areas and over the generous island, giving the room a smart, high-quality finish as well as plenty of practical workspace. A wide range of fitted cupboards provides excellent storage, helping to keep work surfaces clear, while integrated appliances include twin built-in ovens and dishwasher. Subtle lighting beneath the units adds a warm touch, and pendant lights above the island help make this the natural centre of the room. The island provides space for informal seating along with storage, so it is easy to imagine breakfast here in the morning, children doing homework after school or friends sitting with a drink while dinner is being prepared.

The kitchen is large enough to have a proper dining area alongside it, with room for a generous family table without compromising the cooking space. Continue through the kitchen and the house opens into the extended family room at the rear. This is one of the most impressive parts of the home and has been designed to bring plenty of natural light inside. A large roof lantern sits overhead, while two sets of bifold glazed doors look directly onto the garden. The result is a bright, relaxed room that feels closely connected to the outside. There is plenty of space for comfortable seating, with a contemporary gas stove set against exposed brick adding warmth and character. During warmer weather, the doors can be opened straight onto the garden, making this a particularly enjoyable space for summer family life.

From the family room, you can move through into the generous separate lounge, which in turn brings you back towards the entrance hall. This creates a lovely natural flow around the ground floor rather than a series of rooms that feel cut off from one another. The lounge provides a more traditional and peaceful living space, with a fireplace creating a welcoming focal point.

Head back into the entrance hall and the staircase leads to the first floor, where four bedrooms are arranged around the landing. The rooms offer plenty of flexibility for a growing family, whether they are needed as children's bedrooms, guest accommodation or a home office. One of the double bedrooms has its own en suite shower room, while the main family bathroom serves the remaining rooms. The bathroom is finished in a clean, modern style and includes a bath with shower above, making it practical for both younger children and busy weekday mornings.

Continue upstairs again and the extended entire top floor becomes a large principal suite. This gives parents a real sense of privacy away from the other bedrooms and makes excellent use of the upper level. Multiple roof windows bring in lots of daylight and views over fields and beyond, while fitted storage uses the space beneath the sloping ceilings well. There is room for a large bed as well as dressing or study furniture, and a sizeable en-suite with separate bath and shower completes this private part of the home.

Back downstairs, the family room opens directly onto the enclosed rear garden. A lawn provides space for children to play, while planted borders, contemporary fencing and raised decked areas keep the setting neat and welcoming. There is also a covered seating area, giving the family a dedicated place for outdoor meals, summer evenings or entertaining friends.

The separate garage has also been adapted to make better use of the space. It is currently arranged with a garage area at the front, alongside a utility room and dedicated store, providing useful space for laundry, bikes, tools, sports equipment and the many extras that come with family life. Together with the outside double driveway parking, it adds another practical feature to a home that has clearly been planned around everyday needs.

Wheldrake is a popular choice for families looking for village life while remaining within reach of York. The village offers useful everyday amenities and a friendly community setting, with surrounding countryside providing plenty of opportunities for walks and outdoor time. For families with school-age children, a particularly important attraction is the property's position within the Fulford School catchment. York is within easy reach for a much wider choice of shops, restaurants, leisure facilities and employment. The city also provides excellent rail connections, including services towards Leeds and London, while road links make travelling around York and the wider area straightforward.
