Take a tour around this magnificent Georgian mansion

This grand house with its many period charms, is one half of Durkar House, a mansion that dates back to the 1800s. It is tucked away in a semi-rural location near Wakefield but is just one mile from Junction 39 of the M1.

East Wing, which is on the market for £400,000 has high ceilings, ornate plasterwork, deep skirtings, sash windows and a glazed cupola above the main staircase and the present owners have updated it with a new kitchen and bespoke, built-in bookcases.

Inside, the house has 3,000 sq.ft of space, including an entrance hallway, two large reception rooms, a dining kitchen, a ground floor study, cloakroom/WC and guest bedroom with en-suite. To the first floor, there are two further bedrooms, a master bedroom with en suite, a house bathroom and a separate WC. The lower ground floor has extensive cellars that provide useful storage. Outside, there are gardens to three sides. A drive to the front allows off-street parking in addition to a gated drive to the rear.
