A picturesque, recently renovated stone-built cottage with guest annexe and superb views towards Gouthwaite Reservoir.
Description
Fountains Cottage sits in an enviable position in the picturesque North Yorkshire village of Bouthwaite in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales. The property enjoys spectacular views across the open countryside beyond and out towards Gouthwaite Reservoir.
This superb cottage dates back to the 18th century, adorned with characterful features including exposed stone fireplaces and oak doors. Having undergone a meticulous and extensive renovation by the current owners this charming cottage now benefits from all of the conveniences of a modern home including a particularly impressive energy performance rating and double glazed windows throughout.
The ground floor features a generous kitchen-dining room complete with contemporary kitchen units, an Aga and built-in appliances. There is room for a sizeable kitchen table, enjoying views across the gardens and countryside beyond.
Just off from the kitchen is a useful separate utility room.
Continuing through the ground floor there are two reception rooms, both with log-burning stoves, and a guest WC.
Ascending the main staircase to the first floor there are two generous double bedrooms, a house bathroom and a study area. A separate staircase, accessed through the sitting room leads to the principal suite which would also make a perfect guest bedroom.
In addition to the main house there is a newly completed guest annexe with an open-plan kitchen-living-dining room and first floor bedroom suite.
Externally the property sits within an impressive plot with a large lawned garden flanked by a beech hedge, a large patio area with pergola and planted borders.
In addition, there are two stone outbuildings and a large garage.
