Set just outside Grosmont in the North York Moors National Park, this mid-terrace stone cottage dates from the 1840s and offers authentic period character with modern conveniences. Exposed beams, a multi-fuel stove and uPVC double glazing combine to create a cosy, well-proportioned two-bedroom home suited to a first or second home in the countryside.
The cottage sits on a small, level plot with a front patio and a side garden laid to lawn with fruit trees, plus two useful outhouses and a detached garage/workshop with electric roller door. Valley views from the front bedroom and lounge are a standout feature and the village amenities and steam railway are within easy reach.
There are practical points to note: the original large Yorkshire range is not functioning and would need restoration, walls are stone with no known insulation (likely requiring upgrading), and main heating is by room electric heaters supplemented by the multi-fuel stove. Broadband speeds are slow in the area, although mobile signal is excellent. Buyers should commission a full survey given the age of the build and solid-stone construction.
Overall this freehold cottage offers genuine rural charm, generous storage and workshop space, and strong appeal for buyers seeking a characterful countryside retreat or a holiday base with good parking and pleasant gardens. Early inspection is recommended to appreciate the setting and scope for sympathetic improvements.
