Eastfield House, Cowick Road, Snaith, Goole, DN14

Eastfield House is a fabulous opportunity to purchase an impressive property requiring extensive modernisation. The house, whilst being in a poor state of repair retains many period features and would make a fine family home.

To the rear of the house is the former Coach House, that, subject to the necessary consents, would convert to a number of uses including, home office, ancillary accommodation and garaging.

The property extends to 4.7 acres and includes a front garden and land to the rear that has amenity appeal, and could provide paddocks for those with equestrian interests.

There is a public footpath that crosses the southern section of the property.
