Acorn Mews, South Otterington, DL7

Full Description

Here is a rare opportunity to create a home that is entirely your own, without the cost and complexity of building from scratch.

Plot 3 at Acorn Mews is a three-bedroom, three-bathroom detached home set across three floors in the North Yorkshire village of South Otterington. Built by Newspan Construction, a family-run developer with a long-standing reputation for quality and craft in the region, this is one of just four properties on a small, considered development where every detail can be shaped around the buyer.

From the kitchen to the bathrooms, the tiles to the taps, you choose the specification. Newspan's materials budget is included within the purchase price: a £12,000 kitchen allowance, £3,000 per bathroom, and £1,500 per tiled area, all at cost price with fitting included. There is no premium for personalisation here. It is simply the way Newspan build.

The Home

The ground floor opens into a generous entrance hall with staircase rising to the first floor and access to all principal rooms. The lounge sits to the front of the property, measuring 4.65m x 3.3m, with a bay window of approximately 2.94m bringing excellent natural light into the room.

The kitchen, dining and day room is the heart of the home. The kitchen area, approximately 3.3m x 3.0m, has been designed to accommodate a central island with services, with ample space for contemporary fitted units and integrated appliances of your choosing. The open-plan day and dining area, approximately 4.3m x 3.25m, features a bay window and double doors of approximately 2.94m opening directly to the rear garden, creating a seamless connection between the inside and out. A practical utility room and ground floor WC complete the ground floor.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom measures 4.75m x 3.3m with a dedicated dressing area of 3.25m x 2.6m, ideal for fitted wardrobes, and an en suite shower room of 3.17m x 1.45m, fitted to your own specification. Bedroom two, 3.9m x 3.2m, overlooks the rear garden and is well proportioned for a double bed and furniture. The family bathroom, 3.87m x 2.56m, has been designed to accommodate a freestanding bath, walk-in shower, basin and WC, with the suite and tiling chosen entirely by you.

The second floor is given over to a generous top-floor suite of 4.5m x 3.75m, lit by rooflights and served by a private en suite of 2.6m x 1.85m with shower, WC and basin. Additional boarded eaves storage completes the upper floor.

South Otterington

South Otterington is a quiet, established North Yorkshire village of around 350 residents, sitting on the east bank of the River Wiske, five miles south of Northallerton. The village has a well-regarded primary school feeding into secondary schools across the area, including Thirsk, Northallerton, Bedale, Ripon, Queen Mary's and Cundall Manor. The Otterington Shorthorn is a local pub with a strong local following, known for home-cooked food and real ales.

Getting Around

Both Thirsk and Northallerton are within easy reach, each with a station on the East Coast Mainline offering direct services to York, Leeds, Newcastle, Edinburgh and London, with the capital reachable in under two hours. The A19 and A1(M) are both accessible from the village, making this a well-connected base for commuters and those who travel regularly.

About Newspan Construction

Newspan Construction was founded by business partners Mark and Lewis, who together have spent more than a decade building homes of genuine quality across North Yorkshire. They are not a volume housebuilder. They have never wanted to be. Newspan's model is deliberate: small developments of bespoke properties, each one built to a standard that a larger operation rarely has the time or inclination to reach.

Their track record speaks for itself. Recent completed developments include Churchill Mews in Dalton, Wensleydale Mews in Thirsk and Willow Mews in Thirsk, each a small collection of individually crafted homes that have established Newspan's reputation among buyers and tradespeople alike as a developer who does not cut corners.

What sets Newspan apart is not simply the quality of the build, though that is consistently high. It is the way they work with buyers. On a Newspan development, you are not presented with a finished product and asked to take it or leave it. You are invited into the process. From the kitchen to the bathrooms, the tiling to the taps, the choices are yours, with Newspan's expertise and buying power working in your favour. Materials budgets are included within the purchase price at cost price, with all fitting included, meaning you get a home built around your taste without paying a premium for the privilege.

Mark and Lewis remain personally involved in every development they undertake. That is a choice, not a necessity. It means that when you buy a Newspan home, you are dealing with the people who care most about getting it right.

Acorn Mews, South Otterington, is their latest development. Four properties. One already sold. The remaining plots are available now for reservation.
