Albion Street, Driffield, YO25

The first time to market in more than a century.

A truly exceptional family home (10 bedrooms in all and well over 4000 square feet of living space!) arranged over three floors with a private formally well-tended mainly walled garden and garage. For many years the house doubled as a veterinary surgery. The town centre location is ideal for access to all services and amenities. The ground floor has retail potential subject to the necessary consents first being obtained.

The accommodation is in need of extensive refurbishment and refitting but does retain many period features.

The principal entrance door is from Albion Street with the rear entrance via an archway over which others have rights-of-way.

There is a garage/store with direct access off Albion Street plus predominantly walled garden.  

DRIFFIELD
Driffield remains a market town, notwithstanding the closure of the livestock market in 2001. The central shopping area includes a weekly stalled market, with shops providing a wide range of goods and services for everyday needs supplemented by retailers such as B&M, Iceland, Boyes, Peacocks, Yorkshire Trading, Tesco and Lidl. Many local shops provide a personal service, in addition to a wide range of goods. Other amenities include a modern Sports Centre with swimming pool, cricket, tennis, bowls, football and rugby teams, dancing, gyms etc. together with many clubs and associations. Road and rail links to the neighbouring coastal market towns, including Beverley, Hull and beyond.
