Stone-built detached cottage with period character
Sycamore Cottage is a stone-built detached conversion in the heart of Ripley, offering three double bedrooms and three bathrooms across about 1,100 sq ft. The house blends period character with practical modern upgrades: a fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, double glazing, mains gas central heating and an alarm system. Three reception rooms give flexible living — ideal for family life, a home office or a ground-floor guest suite.
Set within small but well-kept lawned gardens and a paved patio, the plot is easy to maintain and benefits from private driveway parking. The cottage is chain-free and positioned moments from village amenities, pleasant countryside walks and good commuter routes to Harrogate, Leeds and York. Broadband options include superfast and ultrafast tiers, suitable for remote working and streaming.
Buyers should note the garden and overall plot are small for a detached village cottage, and some rooms have irregular shapes/sloping eaves which reduce usable wall space. Council tax is above average for the area. Overall, this property will suit families seeking character with modern comforts, downsizers wanting low-maintenance grounds, or buyers looking for a high-spec holiday/letting cottage in a sought-after village.
