2 Bedroom Detached House

Shaw Cottage is a very attractive, double-fronted detached cottage situated in a private rural position on the edge of Hurst, a small hamlet within Swaledale. The property stands very well in a large plot which extends to 0.32 acre and offers stunning views and privacy.

The property is entered via a useful front porch with a stone flagged floor which leads into the kitchen diner. This room features a bespoke wooden kitchen with an open fire with back boiler providing the hot water. There is also ample space for a dining table and windows on two aspects making it lovely and light. Leading through is one of the reception rooms which has previously been used as a formal dining room. This has an open fire which heats the radiator in the main bedroom, and it could be used as a snug if preferred. Completing the ground floor is a shower room and steps up lead to the main reception room. This is fully panelled with bespoke oak panelling to the walls and ceiling and has a multi fuel stove set within an impressive fireplace.

To the first floor there are two bedrooms and a house bathroom. The main bedroom is well proportioned with a window to the front and the second bedroom is a small single with a useful cupboard. The bathroom features a WC, basin and a bath.

Externally the property is complemented by generous gardens and grounds which surround the property and are enclosed by walled boundaries. There is a lawn to the front of the property and a selection of established trees to the rear and side. There is a vegetable patch and ample space for seating from where the views can be enjoyed.

Within the garden is the substantial detached bothy. This stone building has previously been used as a workshop and has the benefit of water and electricity. It can be used for storage and may offer conversion potential for ancillary accommodation (subject to PP).

The property is approached via a private track with right of way to the property. Usefully at the end of the track is a garage which provides excellent storage and parking for a small car/bike.
Overall, Shaw Cottage offers a unique opportunity to own an excellent home with stunning views in a peaceful, rural position. Viewing is advised and strictly by appointment only.
