A tiny Georgian gatehouse where the living quarters are underground has gone on the market for £215,000.
Eastgate Lodge in Grimston Park, Tadcaster, North Yorkshire, may appear to be too small to live in at first glance, with the part visible above ground just 10ft 10in square – but hiding beneath is 306sq ft of additional space.
The unique, Grade II-listed detached home offers a bedroom with mezzanine bed area and plenty of storage, accessible via a wrought iron spiral staircase.
Further underground is the living accommodation – a living area with glass roof, a kitchenette, and bathroom with clawfoot bath.
French doors lead to the sunken garden with a stunning wall feature, shrubs and seating area.
The current owners have lived in this property for many years and have enjoyed the convenient location and the community that the estate has to offer.
The estate itself is also steeped in history – having been visited by many members of the British monarchy since the 1800’s and it first appeared in the Doomsday Book in 1086.
The estate boasts stunning countryside and is within reach of the Tadcaster amenities and links to the A64/A1 roads.
The property is currently on the market with Hunters for £215,000.
