An immaculately presented and deceptively spacious, stone-built cottage situated in the centre of Reeth.

Situation and Amenities

Reeth is set in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, within the much sought-after Swaledale. The village has a number of amenities including a village shop, post office, GP surgery, bakery, several public houses, restaurants, cafés, speciality shops, a primary school and the Dales Bikes Centre. Reeth is ideally situated for those looking to enjoy the spectacular scenery and countryside of the Yorkshire Dales.

Further amenities are available in the market towns of Leyburn (8 miles) and Richmond (11 miles), where there are many excellent local and artisan shops, a weekly outdoor market, filling station, dentist, primary and secondary schools and sixth form colleges. Leyburn is also home to Tennants Auctioneers on the eastern outskirts of the town.

The area benefits hugely from tourism and has good communications and relatively easy access to the A1 at Catterick. The nearest train station is at Northallerton (about 26 miles away) with a regular service on the East Coast Main Line to York, Newcastle, London or Edinburgh. International airports: Leeds Bradford, Newcastle and Teesside International Airport.

Accommodation

A bespoke, oak-framed door leads into the entrance porch, which provides access to the living room, ground floor w.c and a useful utility area. There is an additional entrance hall with a door to the driveway and stairs to the first floor, which provides access into the dual aspect sitting room.

The living room has patio doors opening out to the rear gardens and has steps down into the kitchen, which has quality, bespoke, oak-fitted units, a Range-style cooker, Belfast sink and integrated appliances including a dishwasher. The former dining room, adjacent to the kitchen, is currently used as a home office.

The first floor landing leads to two double bedrooms, one of which has a private basin and w.c. A door leads to an area previously used as a study and currently used as a dressing room, which provides access to the family bathroom with a rolltop bath, separate double shower, vanity basin and w.c. The third double bedroom is situated to the rear of the property, built into the eaves and with a Velux window showcasing the lovely, far-reaching views.

Externally

Oak gates open up to a block-paved drive suitable for a small vehicle, with a path leading up to the main entrance.

The raised rear garden has dry stone walled and hedged boundaries with stone steps and a lower patio with two useful, stone-built storage sheds. There is a substantial patio with wrought-iron railings, leading to a large lawned garden with an array of well-stocked flower beds and borders, mature trees and plants.
