Nestled between Ripon and Thirsk lies the quintessentially English village of Rainton, complete with a cricket club, green and pub.
This idyllic rural setting provides the perfect location for Robinson's Fold, a small development of 15 three, four and five-bedroom family homes.
As village locations remain in huge demand, the majority of the properties have now sold.
However, there is still an opportunity to own your dream house in the country, with three beautiful new spacious homes available to move into late next month.
Lucy Collinge, new homes marketing executive at Linley & Simpson, the agent selling the properties, said:
"The developers - Oakapple Homes - have done some incredible builds around North Yorkshire. They are known for building large, quality family homes.
"Internally the proportions of the houses at Robinson's Fold are really quite substantial. The specification is high quality with stunning fitted kitchens, tiled bathrooms and ensuites, oak flooring in the hallway and one reception room, underfloor heating to the ground floor and bi-fold doors all coming as standard."
A showstopper kitchen and dining room space.

When it comes to deciding what type of property to buy, Miss Collinge said the benefits of new homes "are endless". She said:
"They have 10-year warranties. That's two years with the builder, where they will come out and address any issues that might arise. For the next eight years it's covered by an insurance backed warranty picking up anything structural.
"Another benefit is the affordable running costs. I think that's such an important factor for purchasers at the moment with the cost of living continuing to rise. New build properties also come with all manufacturers guarantees on these appliances and heating systems.
"Self-builds, home improvements and renovations are difficult at the moment due to the cost. So new builds are fantastic in terms of buying something you can go straight into, live in and enjoy.
“All the evidence, as well as our own research, highlight that flexible working patterns are very much here to stay. No longer is working from home a novelty – it’s now very much a growing lifestyle choice. The majority of the properties incorporate a home office and super-fast broadband in response to this.
“In Yorkshire and across the UK, COVID-19 has rebooted the property market. One of the few positives of the pandemic is that it has catapulted the idea of home-working from the edge of employment activity, into the mainstream."
A living room perfect for those cosy nights in.
Sean Mayes Development Director at Oakapple said:
“Recent events have made us all reflect on what is important in our lives. A sense of community, work/life balance and the need for open space away from the crowd are still very much at the forefront of our minds.
However, as the world starts to open up again, connectivity is also high on the checklist. Rainton offers the best of both worlds thanks to its convenient location.
It is close to the junction of the A1 and A168, providing the commuter with options when travelling by car. Central Harrogate and York are 16 and 25 miles to the south respectively and Leeds is 38 miles away.
For longer journeys, the nearest train station is Thirsk which is just 7 miles away. From here, it is possible to catch direct trains to Leeds, London, Manchester Airport, Sunderland and York”.
In conclusion, Miss Collinge added:
"Rainton has got a lovely village green and a maypole and it certainly looks the part.
"You head over the bridge back to Ripon and you're also a stone's throw away from Thirsk. You're bang in the middle. You've also got great transport links on the doorstop giving seclusion without remoteness. Rainton really is a stunning village in a fabulous location - the perfect place to buy a new home."
