Summary - 42 THORPE LANE CAWOOD SELBY YO8 3SG
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Central Cawood location with generous parking and gardens.
Four bedrooms including master with en-suite
Set in the sought-after village of Cawood, Wayside Cottage is a compact executive detached house that suits growing families seeking village life and good local schools. The house offers a practical layout with two reception rooms, a generous open-plan kitchen/dining/living space and four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a master with en-suite.
Outside, the plot is a real asset: gardens to all sides, driveway parking for up to four vehicles and a double garage provide rare convenience for a village-centre home. Local amenities, frequent bus links and easy access to country walks such as the Wolsey Way make the location especially appealing for outdoor families and dog walkers.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations. Heating is by electric room heaters and the property uses electricity as its main fuel, which can mean higher running costs than gas alternatives. The double glazing was installed before 2002 and may not match modern performance standards. Council Tax sits at Band E, above average for the area. The house was built in the late 1960s–1970s and, while well presented, may offer scope for updating to suit contemporary tastes.
Overall, this freehold property blends comfortable family living with strong village character and practical parking and outdoor space. It will particularly suit families who prioritise location, local schools and outdoor amenity, and who are happy to consider targeted energy and glazing upgrades over time.
