Sunnyside Cottage is a mid‑terraced, two-bedroom village home offering a comfortable blend of traditional character and everyday practicality. The living room centres on a cosy log burner and the country-style kitchen provides useful workspace. A private, enclosed garden and rare off-street parking add clear practical value for village life.
The house is presented in good external order and is ready to occupy ‘turn-key’, but retains scope for modest improvement. Constructed in the 1930s–40s, the property has double glazing installed before 2002, oil-fired central heating and cavity walls assumed to have no insulation—factors to consider when assessing ongoing running costs. There is no flooding risk and the area benefits from low crime and a peaceful rural setting.
This is a strong option for first‑time buyers or couples seeking a manageable, characterful home close to Northallerton. The small plot and compact footprint suit those prioritising village location and low-maintenance grounds rather than a large garden. Broadband and mobile signal are average here; any buyer wanting high-speed connectivity should check providers and speeds locally.
Practical extras: freehold tenure, low council tax, and potential to modernise or extend subject to planning. EPC currently waiting—buyers should factor potential energy improvements into budgets.
