Set in the picture-postcard village of Airton within the Yorkshire Dales National Park, this stone two-bedroom terrace is a characterful, chain-free opportunity for a buyer happy to renovate. Original features including exposed beams and a cast-iron wood-burning stove give the cottage immediate charm, while a generous southerly rear garden and stone-flagged patio offer outdoor space rare for properties of this size.
The house requires a comprehensive programme of modernisation: electrics (consumer unit present), heating is electric storage/background units, and internal finishes are dated. Ceilings are low in parts and the overall internal footprint is small (c. 469 sq ft), so careful planning will be needed to maximise space and light. On-street parking only.
For a purchaser who wants to personalise a home in a peaceful Dales village, this is a strong-value proposition. The property benefits from UPVC double glazing, mains services, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical advantages for modern living. Local amenities include a farm shop, tea room, post office service and bus links; Skipton and Settle are around a 20-minute drive.
Realistic for first-time buyers or those seeking a weekend/holiday cottage, the plot and position offer clear upside: restore period features, reconfigure rooms if desired, and enjoy a sunny, private garden with far-reaching views. Buyers should be prepared for renovation costs and to verify all services and installations by a qualified surveyor.
