Set on a quiet corner of Kettlewell within the Yorkshire Dales National Park, this stone-built detached cottage blends period character with high-quality modern finishes. The house has been fully refurbished by the current owners to provide three generous bedrooms, a luxurious bathroom, and a fitted kitchen with an oil-fired Aga. A bright garden room overlooks the south-west facing cottage garden, making the outside space a real extension of the living area.
Practical benefits include off-street parking for two cars, double glazing installed after 2002, and a useful lower-ground utility and ground-floor shower room. The property sits a short walk from village amenities and Kettlewell Primary School, appealing to families or those seeking a tranquil rural base with local services close by.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: heating currently relies on coal-fired boiler and radiators, broadband speeds are slow, and the property sits in an area with a medium flood risk. The plot is small and council tax is described as expensive — all relevant to running costs and future planning. The house’s period construction and filled cavity walls will suit buyers comfortable with older buildings and occasional ongoing maintenance.
Overall, Ladycroft offers an attractive package for buyers looking for a character-filled, turnkey village home in an affluent, low-crime setting. It will particularly suit families or downsizers who value proximity to countryside, strong local community amenities, and a beautifully presented interior, while being prepared to manage the property’s fuel choice, connectivity and flood-risk implications.
