Characterful home with vaulted living and gardens near Malton.
Three double bedrooms, including ground-floor guest suite with ensuite
This bespoke three-bedroom stone cottage sits in the peaceful village of Swinton, offering a rare combination of period character and contemporary fittings. Vaulted, beamed ceilings and exposed stonework give the open-plan sitting and dining space dramatic volume, while the bespoke breakfast kitchen with granite island creates a convivial heart for family life and entertaining. French doors open onto a well‑kept, split-level garden with sun terrace — an ideal outdoor dining and relaxation area.
Accommodation is arranged over two levels with a flexible ground-floor guest suite or third bedroom with ensuite, plus two double first-floor bedrooms, one with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. Solid oak floors, traditional cast-iron radiators and quality fixtures are evident throughout. Off-street parking for up to three cars and a garden shed add practical convenience for everyday life.
Practical points to note: heating is by oil-fired boiler and there is no evidence of cavity wall insulation in the original stone walls, which may affect running costs and future improvement plans. The property is chain free and freehold, built circa 1900–1929, and suits buyers wanting a character home in a quiet, rural village with good broadband and local bus links into Malton.
