Set on a quiet cul-de-sac a short walk from Leyburn market place, this traditional two-bedroom end-terrace offers an affordable entry into a very desirable small‑town setting. The house has comfortable, well-proportioned rooms, a usable lobby, an open‑fire living room and a kitchen-diner that opens onto a south-facing rear garden — practical layout for everyday living.
Practical extras include an attached single garage, off-street parking for one car and solar panels that help reduce running costs. The property is freehold with mains gas central heating, double glazing and low council tax, making it economical to run for a first-time buyer or someone downsizing to the area.
The house does require some updating and general modernisation: fittings and finishes are dated and there is renovation potential throughout. Broadband speeds are slow in the area, so anyone working from home should factor that in. Despite this, the location is very convenient — excellent mobile signal, low local crime, good nearby schools and the amenities of Leyburn close by.
Overall this is a compact, well-located starter or retirement home with clear potential to improve value and comfort through modest refurbishment.
