The house, in 2018

Monk End House is a historic building in Croft-on-Tees, a village in North Yorkshire, in England.

In the mediaeval period, a house on the site was owned by St Mary's Abbey, York.[1] The current building may retain some 15th century material, but mainly dates from the early 18th century. At one time, the conservatory was used as a schoolroom. The house was grade II listed in 1968.[2] In 2011, it was sold for £2.25 million, the most expensive property in the Darlington area between 2000 and 2024.[3]

The house is built of brown brick, with a dentilled eaves course and a hipped Westmorland slate roof. There is a U-shaped plan, with a main range of three storeys and five bays. In the centre of the east front is a round-arched doorway with Roman Doric three-quarter columns with fluted capitals, an entablature with paterae, a fanlight with decorative glazing, and an open pediment. The windows are sashes with flat brick arches. At the rear is a chamfered mullioned basement window, and in the left return is a two-storey canted bay window.[2][4]
