Summary - BECK COTTAGE ST JOHNS ROAD BISHOP MONKTON HARROGATE HG3 3QU
3 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Charming renovated home with private lawned garden and stream views.
Three bedrooms including large top-floor double with skylights
Beck Cottage is a charming three-bedroom Victorian end-terrace quietly tucked into Bishop Monkton, recently renovated to present a ready-to-move-in character home. The layout feels larger than its footprint suggests, with a front living room, a second reception, and a stylish fitted kitchen opening toward an enclosed, lawned rear garden and patio. Large attic bedroom with skylights and good fitted storage adds flexible space for guests or a home office.
The setting is a key draw: windows and the main bedroom look over the beck, and the cottage sits in an affluent, low-crime village with a primary school, pub and good community spirit. Practical features include mains gas central heating, a modern boiler in the understairs utility and partial double glazing. The plot is modest but private, with gated side access and mature borders ideal for outdoor living.
Buyers should note some material realities: the property is of solid brick construction typical of the 1860s and likely lacks wall insulation, broadband speeds in the village are slow, and there is a medium local flood risk. Council tax is band D. These points are important for running costs, any planned modernisation and insurance considerations.
Overall this cottage suits buyers seeking a character-filled, turn-key village home with period features, or a holiday/second-home purchaser wanting a picture-postcard location. It will particularly appeal to families or people relocating to a quiet rural village, but those prioritising high-speed internet or maximum thermal efficiency should factor in upgrades.
