Set in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, this former railway worker’s cottage combines genuine period character with strong outdoor amenity. The ground floor offers a cosy sitting room with a multi-fuel stove and a spacious open-plan dining kitchen, while three upstairs bedrooms and a modern family bathroom suit everyday family life or a holiday base. A front porch and south-facing front garden add practical, sunny outdoor space.
Externally the property benefits from a large, mature back garden that rises to a sheltered, private viewing point with wide Dales views — a peaceful wildlife haven currently managed to encourage red squirrels. The rear courtyard contains a substantial converted outbuilding with plumbing, lighting and a separate WC installed three years ago, providing useful utility space and clear potential for further adaptation or an annexe (subject to consents).
Practical considerations are straightforward but important: heating is via electric storage heaters and the stone walls are assumed uninsulated, with double glazing installed before 2002. The house is traditional and cottage-scale (approximately 895 sq ft), so buyers should expect typical limitations of an older rural property and consider insulation and heating upgrades. Broadband and mobile signal are strong and there is very low local crime, but the location sits within a national park where alterations may be regulated.
Overall this is a characterful, well-situated property for someone seeking a peaceful rural home or holiday retreat with immediate outdoor appeal and clear scope to add value through sympathetic upgrades.
