Showhome at The Beeches, Hambleton

We’ve long been a fan of Daniel Gath Homes, having seen close up and at first hand the kind of quality workmanship which goes into their new houses.

We’ve also much liked the fact that the York-based company works quite often on small, select and smart developments – and Mr Gath himself is always very much on hand to ensure everything matches his own exacting standards.

So, news of the launch of a new showhome at the company’s development at The Beeches, in Gateforth Lane, Hambleton, was bound to catch our eye.

We’ve had a good look at the house in question, a new ‘Ascot’ style detached family home in a discreet collection of just three properties.

The pictures look great, the property layout looks a bit special – and, as Daniel Gath marketing manager Allison Seaman, says: “We’re really proud of the houses here, they are really lovely homes.”

So, now we’ve confessed to being fans, we shall, more prosaically, take you through what the showhome – and by association the other homes on site – has to offer.

As we say, the layout is very impressive, there is lots of living space and plenty of bedrooms for a growing family.

On the ground floor there is a nice run of living rooms to the rear of the house including a huge dining kitchen and family room space (a whopping 26ft by 13ft) which is beautifully fitted and has a pair of French doors and deep windows letting in lots and lots of lovely light.

There is a separate dining room and a lounge (and both of these run to a good size, too).

And, as if this were not enough there is also the added bonus of a study on this floor, along with a cloakroom (and did we mention that the kitchen also offers a utility room?) There is also plenty of room upstairs, too, where the master bedroom has a dressing room as well as an en-suite. The guest bedroom also has an en-suite and there are three further bedrooms along with a luxury family bathroom.

A double garage, freestanding parking area and decent-sized, enclosed gardens complete a very attractive package.

And, here’s a thing… prices at the Beeches start at £415,000 which, in our view, looks like a reasonable deal for the quality on offer.
