Moat HallMoat Hall is an imposing country house superbly located and enjoying a quiet, semi-rural position close to the villages of Little and Great Ouseburn and midway between York and Harrogate. The property enjoys all the elements considered indispensable to a small country house estate owner.Its history is fascinating as Moat Hall is believed to sit on the site of a much older, moated property. A study found evidence of a substantial medieval timber framed manor house with the earliest part dating from the late 15th/early 16th centuries still surviving as a central part of the hall. Various alterations and improvements have been undertaken including the addition of the grand staircase and the remodelling of the façade to create a symmetrical Georgian elevation. The main 18th century residence was demolished leaving the mausoleum which still adjoins the Norman church and forms an attractive aspect on the northern boundary. Moat Hall became the Dower House.

•3 principal receptions rooms including a dining room dating back to the 16th century
•5 bedroom house and 2 bedroom cottage
•large kitchen with fitted units and 4-oven electric Aga

Gardens and Grounds
The property sits within 35 acres of gardens and grounds divided into 4 acres of formal gardens and orchard, 9 acres of woodland and 22 acres of grazing land.The approach through wrought iron gates is via a carriage driveway with central turning circle providing access to the cottage and stable yard, onto the land and outbuildings and beyond through further gates to the private enclosed courtyard at the side of the house, which provides extensive parking and garaging.The mature and wooded gardens have been well maintained offering enjoyment from south and west facing positions. Predominantly laid to lawn, the main garden is part walled with hedging and includes an octagonal summer house (light & power) and greenhouse with potting shed. The west facing gardens have an arbor walkway with gravelled path and tennis court with orchard beyond. A range of outbuildings are accessed from the courtyard including three garages with office over, a barn with adjoining workshops and a range of wood stores.The land comprises two principal fields: one to the north has planning permission for five caravans and ten tents with water and electric hook-up points; the second field to the south enjoys road frontage and access, an area of woodland and small lake, recently thinned.
