OVERVIEW
Centrally positioned within the pretty village of Beetham lies Box Tree Cottage - a property that is very much more than meets the eye. The extended accommodation is over three floors with a versatile layout lending itself to a combination of 2/3 bedrooms or 2/3 living spaces. The character and charm of the building has been carefully and considerately retained throughout, the decor is in keeping with the period and age of the cottage and is combined with more modern fitments including gas central heating and double glazed windows. Pitch pine, exposed timbers, windows shutters and period panel doors are all in evidence. A courtyard space at the side envelopes you within the planting, giving privacy and calm. The location in Beetham is perfect for the historic 11th Century church and 400 year old The Wheatsheaf Inn, both within a stone’s throw of the property. The tearooms are just around the corner and Beetham Garden Centre and Cafe across the A6. Countryside walks (truncated)
