The Folly twists the definition of the word on its head in the village of Hutton Rudby, and is for sale with a guide price of £595,000
By its very definition, the word folly means an ornamental building with no practical purpose.
But nothing could be further from the truth when it comes to this week’s Dream Home.
For The Folly, in the village of Hutton Rudby, twists the definition on its head - and then some. It is both good to look at - on the inside and the outside - and with spacious rooms and contemporary decor, it proves the perfect space for family living.

Home to its owners for 20 years, they’ve renovated and refurbished with a real eye for detail creating spaces that reflect the country feel of the house.
“The house belonged to my mum and dad, they loved Hutton Rudby,” explains the owner.
“It was quite old fashioned when they moved in - mum loves decor and she had a new kitchen put in and decorated right through.
“A favourite room is the kitchen - everybody loves it. Everybody sits and eats in there, it is a real family hub of a room.”
The charming family home has plenty of flexible living space and with three reception rooms downstairs and four bedrooms upstairs, there is plenty of room to spread out and enjoy.
The living room is a haven of relaxation with a bay window overlooking the front garden as well as a window at the rear and a focal point in the shape of a brick built fireplace with open fire.
The light-filled dining room has a staircase up to the first floor as well as doors off to the breakfast room, conservatory and living room.
There’s a sitting room too - in here you’ll find French doors with access to the conservatory.
The breakfast room is open plan to the kitchen and there’s another feature brick fireplace in here. Recently refitted, the kitchen is a contemporary space with high gloss units and solid wood worksurfaces, a double Belfast style sink and a range style oven with a ceramic hob.
The ground floor is also home to a utility room and a shower room.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms and peeping in, it is obvious the owners have a flair for interior decoration. All stylish and comfortable, they reflect the country nature of the house with a relaxing and contemporary twist.
The family bathroom is another stylish room with a white suite and panelled bath together with wooden effect flooring.
Outside, the garden at the front of the house is lawned with trees and a paved path leading up to the front door.
Private gates flank the driveway and there’s a detached double garage and two brick-built storage sheds.
The garden at the back of the house is extremely private and has a lawn with a patio area which can be accessed from the conservatory. With plans to relocate, however, the owners have taken the decision to put the house on to the market.
The Folly is for sale with a guide price of £595,000. For more information, contact the Stokesley office of estate agent Bridgfords on 01642 337775.
