This attractive stone-built cottage sits in a peaceful village gateway to the Dales, offering generous indoor and outdoor space for family life. The house blends period character—exposed beams, original fireplace and a multifuel stove—with a light, modern kitchen/dining extension completed in 2012, creating a comfortable, versatile home. The kitchen includes integrated appliances and a large walk-in pantry with plumbing for a washing machine, supporting family practicality.
Externally the deep, tiered rear garden overlooks open countryside and includes a patio, lawn, raised beds, greenhouse, potting shed and a mature orchard. A large two-level garage, workshop, woodshed and log store give substantial storage and hobby space, while a private driveway provides off-street parking for several vehicles.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom; two double bedrooms retain original features and the third can serve as a bedroom, nursery or study. A spacious, insulated loft is partially boarded and offers scope for further expansion subject to obtaining necessary planning consents.
Practical considerations: the property has just one bathroom and council tax is above average. Although presented to a high standard, buyers should note loft conversion would require planning consent and any structural changes must be pursued through the local authority. The home is freehold, in a very low-crime, affluent area with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — well suited to family living or those seeking country quiet with good connectivity.
