Summary - MAY COTTAGE EAST HARLSEY NORTHALLERTON DL6 2BL
4 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Character-filled 4-bed cottage with large garden and annexe potential in peaceful East Harlsey.
Spacious four-bedroom Georgian cottage with period features
May Cottage is a spacious four-bedroom Georgian cottage set well back on a large plot in East Harlsey, combining period character with flexible family living. Ground-floor living includes a cosy sitting room with exposed beams and a multi-fuel burner, a separate dining room with a period range, a snug with Velux and garden access, plus a ground-floor double bedroom with Jack-and-Jill en-suite. The layout suits family life or multi-generational use.
The wide rear garden and patios provide excellent outdoor space for children and entertaining, while a garage with a newly created first-floor level offers clear scope for conversion into an annexe, studio or home office subject to planning consent. Off-street parking for multiple vehicles and a large front garden add privacy and convenience in this quiet, low-crime rural hamlet.
Practical considerations are straightforward but important: the house is oil-heated (boiler and radiators) and retains original sandstone/limestone walls with assumed no cavity insulation, and secondary glazing. These period elements give character but also indicate likely future investment for improved energy efficiency. Broadband and mobile signals are average, and council tax is above average for the area.
This property will suit families seeking a character home in a peaceful village with flexible living spaces and development potential. Buyers wanting a completely turn-key, highly energy-efficient house should factor in further insulation and heating upgrades; those looking to add value will find attractive scope for an annexe or internal modernisation.
