Period two-bedroom with enclosed patio, ideal for commuters or holiday lets.
Two double bedrooms, principal with en-suite shower room
Cherkaby Cottage is a double-fronted 17th-century end-terrace offering period character in the heart of Kirkby Stephen. Exposed beams, stone window sills and original niches combine with modern fittings to create a comfortable, characterful home. The property is compact (approximately 542 sq ft) but laid out to feel larger, with flexible living spaces on the ground floor and two generous double bedrooms upstairs.
The ground floor provides an open-plan sitting room and a well-appointed dining kitchen, plus a separate study that could serve as a third bedroom or home office. Upstairs the principal bedroom includes an en-suite shower room, and a modern family bathroom serves the landing and second bedroom. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; windows are double glazed though the installation date is unknown.
Outside there is a private, enclosed patio garden designed for low maintenance, suited to alfresco dining and relaxation rather than extensive landscaping. The small plot and overall footprint will suit buyers looking to downsize, buy a lock-up-and-leave holiday base, or add to an investment portfolio rather than those needing large outdoor space or extensive storage.
Location is a strong selling point: a central, walkable position in a small market town with good transport links to the M6, nearby railway and well-regarded local schools. Note practical considerations: broadband and mobile signal are average; the property sits in an area of average crime and deprivation indicators. Tenure is freehold and there is no identified flood risk.
