A recently refurbished two-bedroom stone cottage on one of Helmsley’s most desirable streets, offering stylish, low-maintenance living within a short, level walk of the town centre. The interior blends original character with contemporary fittings — bespoke kitchen cabinetry, quartz worktops and high-end appliances create a modern heart, while a wood-burning stove and exposed stone exterior preserve cottage charm.
The layout is compact and efficient across two storeys, with a comfortably sized principal bedroom, a second bedroom suitable for guests or a home office, and a single well-appointed bathroom with a walk-in shower. An east-facing private courtyard provides a low-upkeep outdoor space perfect for morning sun and alfresco dining.
Practical details suit downsizers or second-home buyers: freehold tenure, mains gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of C. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and local amenities, schools and cultural attractions are all within easy reach of this small-town setting.
Important considerations: the cottage is modest in overall size (approximately 609 sq ft) with relatively low ceilings and smaller room proportions, which may not suit those seeking generous living spaces. The stone walls are original and assumed to lack modern cavity insulation, so heating costs should be budgeted for despite the EPC C rating. There is one bathroom only, and on-street or allocated parking is not specified.
