A village shop is due to open shortly.The towns of Easingwold and Boroughbridge are both 5 miles away and there is quick access to the A1(M) at junction 48.Within the village there is a primary school and the private schools of Cundall and Queen Mary's are only a few minutes drive to the north.

What The Sellers Say
\"The Old Parsonage has been a fantastic family home for us. It's in a very accessible location; we can usually get to the York outer ring road in the morning within 25 minutes. Although we have used the annexe for elderly parents it would make a fantastic holiday or long term rental if you wanted a separate income stream.We have designed the gardens to be easy to maintain (and child and pet proof) and the evening sunsets from the decking are fantastic\"
