Set in a lovely plot of approximately 0.25 acres, there are well-established gardens to the front and rear, which enjoy a high degree of privacy.

Climbing roses and ivy adorn the front of the house, along with a border packed with spring bulbs.

The sought-after village of Brandsby lies roughly 14 miles north of York, on the edge of the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village is well placed for access to the nearby Georgian market towns of Easingwold and Helmsley (6 and 10 miles respectively), where there are excellent facilities. Meadow Cottage enjoys a rural situation outside the main village, set well away from the road, and accessed via a good quality private driveway.
