Believed to be over 200 years old, Vine House is a sympathetically renovated stone cottage marrying period character with contemporary living. Exposed beams, original wooden floors and stone fireplaces sit alongside a bespoke shaker-style kitchen with central island and quartz worktops — a welcoming heart for family life and entertaining.
The accommodation is well balanced: a generous sitting room with log burner, separate snug, large reception/dining hall and utility/wc on the ground floor. Upstairs offers a principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes and refitted en-suite, plus two further double bedrooms and a stylish four-piece family bathroom with roll-top bath.
Outside the tiered, landscaped rear garden provides an Indian stone terrace, level lawn and enclosed, private space for children and pets; a shared gravel drive to the rear supplies off-street parking. The village location is strong — quiet, very low crime, excellent mobile and fast broadband, and easy access to Wetherby, Harrogate and well-rated local schools.
Practical points to note: the cottage sits in solid sandstone walls likely without modern cavity insulation, contributing to an EPC rating of D and potentially higher heating costs. Double glazing was installed before 2002 and the shared drive means parking is not entirely private. Council Tax is above average (Band E). These are important considerations alongside the evident recent renovation works.
