Central one-bedroom home with modern kitchen and large outdoor store.
Grade II listed cottage in conservation area — consent needed for alterations
A compact Grade II listed cottage in the heart of Selby, this one-bedroom end-terrace combines period charm with practical modern upgrades. The property benefits from a recently fitted kitchen, FTTP broadband and excellent mobile signal, making it well suited to someone starting out who needs reliable connectivity and town-centre convenience.
The layout is traditional with small rooms and relatively low ceilings typical of its era, offering comfortable living across approximately 624 sq ft. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; the EPC is a sensible C (73) and council tax sits in the low Band A, keeping running costs modest.
Buyers should note the listed status and location within a conservation area — any alterations will need consent and could complicate larger renovation plans, though an indemnity policy is in place. The solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, so further energy upgrades could be limited or require specialist works. The rear brick store is a genuine bonus, large enough to house a motorbike or provide secure storage.
This home suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking a characterful, centrally located property with scope for smaller-scale improvements rather than full redevelopment. Expect a straightforward town-centre lifestyle with many amenities on the doorstep, balanced against the constraints and responsibilities of owning a listed cottage.
