Including the great advantage of a particularly generous landscaped rear garden backing onto fields and countryside whilst providing an impressive outdoor space for entertaining, including a beautifully designed stone built patio/seating area with log fired pizza oven, this outstanding stone built end terraced cottage also benefits from excellent private parking and has been subject to a comprehensive scheme of renovation and improvement in recent years to provide a deceptively spacious four bedroom family home within this highly sought after village.
Thoughtfully re-designed to provide a fabulous open plan living space to the ground floor, incorporating interesting character features such as original stone flagged flooring, a solid fuel stove and a sophisticated 'in-frame' fitted kitchen with granite worktop surfaces and a magnificent 'over-sized' oak topped island/breakfast bar with ample dining/living space adjoining. Leading off from the spacious through kitchen/dining area is a cosy lounge, thus creating a wonderful L-shaped design with natural light from both elevations.
The open plan ground floor living space offers a sociable layout that will compliment a modern family lifestyle, ideal for those with younger children whilst also incorporating the very functional and practical benefits of a separate utility room with adjoining ground floor WC/cloaks room.
To the first floor there are four well planned bedrooms including two spacious double together with a lavish four piece bathroom, providing a particularly attractive feature with walk-in shower, free standing roll top bath and luxurious wall and floor tiling.
Externally the property benefits from a private parking area for three cars at the rear and, as previously described, includes a generous landscaped garden providing an enviable degree of outdoor space. The garden features a large stone paved patio/entertaining area incorporating a fabulous log fired pizza oven with preparation area adjoining (free pizza baking lesson included in the sale!) A beautifully constructed stone built retaining wall with steps leads up to an impressive gently sloping lawned garden backing onto open fields and with dry stone boundary walling, veg plot and a variety of trees.
Surrounded by beautiful open countryside on the fringe of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, the very popular village of Embsay is served by a variety of local amenities including a sub post office/general store, two public house, a well respected primary and pre school, a Church, a chapel, a village hall and a bus service. The village is home to the Embsay to Bolton Abbey Heritage steam railway line holding regular special events.
The historic market town of Skipton known as the 'Gateway to the Dales' is less than two miles away providing extensive shopping and recreational facilities together with excellent secondary schooling.
Pleasantly situated in the older part of this sought after village, close to the park and within a short walk of all other village amenities including the highly respected primary school, this very desirable family sized home must be viewed to be fully appreciated and comprises in further detail:
