A rare two-cottage package in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, offered as a single freehold lot. Both cottages have been sympathetically renovated to retain exposed beams, fireplaces and stone walls, while introducing bespoke kitchens and quality finishes. The layout—one two-bed and one one-bed—creates flexible options: live in one and let the other, run both as holiday lets, or hold as an investment with immediate income potential.
Practical positives include a small front garden, tiered rear outdoor space, a useful outhouse, and one off-street parking space. The location offers strong rural character, pleasant elevated countryside views, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband—useful for remote work and short-let bookings. The cottages are compact (total c.452 sq ft) and designed for low-maintenance village living.
Buyers should note material considerations: both cottages have EPC ratings of D, main heating is electric storage heaters, and the original granite walls are assumed uninsulated. There is a medium flooding risk for the area, and the wider locality scores as deprived. A right of way exists across the rear for a neighbour and a title re-registration will be required to amend boundaries. External scaffold on the adjacent property suggests recent or ongoing works nearby.
This property suits buyers seeking a characterful rural bolt-hole with income potential rather than a large family home. The cottages are presented ready to occupy or let, but the listed drawbacks are important for cost and insurance planning.
