A sympathetically restored late-18th-century stone cottage set in the peaceful hamlet of Cowesby, with sweeping views across the North York Moors National Park. The main house provides two double bedrooms (one ensuite), an open-plan dining kitchen and a comfortable living room with a log-burning stove. Across the lane is a self-contained one-bedroom annexe, making this a flexible property for multi-generation living, holiday use or rental income.
The home has been newly renovated throughout and benefits from period features, limestone flooring in the dining area and bespoke joinery. The plot is generous for a hamlet setting at approximately 0.3 acre, with gated gardens, lawned areas, mature planting, parking for several vehicles, two sheds, a log store and a greenhouse.
Practical points to note: the property sits in a remote, low-crime area with no flood risk, but broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is only average. Heating is by an oil-fired boiler with radiators and glazing was installed before 2002; the stone walls are likely uninsulated. EPC rating E is confirmed. Tenure and council tax band are not provided.
This cottage will appeal to buyers seeking rural character and strong views who value renovated, move-in-ready accommodation with separate annexe potential. It is less suitable for buyers requiring high-speed internet, mains gas heating, or low-maintenance, modern-walled insulation without further retrofit work.
