This pretty Victorian terraced cottage in Whixley has been sensitively extended to provide three bedrooms across flexible accommodation. The home blends period character—exposed brick, sash windows and beams—with practical modern upgrades such as double glazing and a fitted dining kitchen with Velux roof lights. A small forecourt and rear lawned garden offer low-maintenance outdoor space suited to family life or weekend relaxation.
The property is well maintained and presented throughout, making it move-in ready for a buyer wanting village living with easy commuter access: Cattal train station is nearby with regular services to York, Harrogate and Leeds. The layout includes a generous lounge, extended dining kitchen with doors to the garden, two first-floor bedrooms and a larger attic-converted master with two Velux windows.
Notable practical points are straightforward: heating is oil-fired via a boiler and radiators, the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated (typical of the build era), and the EPC is D. There is a legal right of way for neighbours over the rear garden; the plot is small and the house is mid-terrace, so outdoor space and privacy are limited compared with detached homes.
This cottage will suit buyers seeking characterful village homes, commuters wanting fast rail links, or investors considering holiday-let potential given the location and access to York and the dales. Buyers prioritising high thermal efficiency or larger gardens should be aware of the solid-wall construction and compact plot when comparing options.
