Immaculate three‑bed period cottage on a large garden plot close to Leyburn.
Three double bedrooms and multiple reception rooms for flexible family living
Ivy Cottage is a spacious detached period home just outside Leyburn, presented in immaculate, recently modernised condition. The house retains character features — exposed beams, stone hearths and oak finishes — alongside contemporary comforts such as a refitted kitchen, new bathrooms and engineered oak floors. With three double bedrooms and multiple reception rooms, the layout suits family living, home working or flexible use of space.
Outside, the property sits on a large plot with attractive cottage-style front and rear gardens, a private patio and mature planting. A gravel driveway provides ample parking and a detached double garage offers workshop or storage potential. A small stream marks the eastern boundary and there is a concealed plastic oil tank on site.
Practical points for buyers: heating is oil-fired (Grant boiler) and the energy rating is modest (EER E52). Windows are double glazed but were installed prior to 2002; the stone walls are original with no assumed insulation. Council Tax is above average (Band E). These factors are reflected in running costs compared with modern gas-heated homes, but the property’s scale, location and finish deliver strong living comfort and countryside appeal.
This cottage will suit families seeking village life close to Leyburn, purchasers wanting character with turnkey presentation, or buyers prepared to consider targeted improvements (insulation, energy upgrades) to lower future running costs.
