Mellwood is situated on the green at Winton, a desirable village which is a short distance from Kirkby Stephen.
Winton itself is a quiet village with a good community, 1.5 miles by road from Kirkby Stephen, or a short easy walk. It has an excellent pub, the Bay Horse, a village hall, green and a chapel. Kirkby Stephen is a small, active market town set in the beautiful Eden Valley, at the mid-point of the Coast-to-Coast long-distance footpath. It has highly regarded primary and secondary schools, a range of shops, pubs and tearooms, bank and post office. There are excellent commuting links, with the M6 being 12 miles to the west and the A66 link to the A1 within 3 miles. Kirkby Stephen railway station, on the historic Settle-Carlisle line, provides links to Leeds and Carlisle.
Mellwood has been a much-loved family home for the current owners for the last 60 years. They have lived in the main house and run the attached cottage as a successful holiday let.
The main accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hall, a living room with a multi fuel stove, a dining room and a country style kitchen with a Rayburn. There is also a rear entrance with a utility area, WC and storage. Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms, a good size single bedroom and the house bathroom.
A cottage comprises a dining kitchen and a cosy living room with a multi fuel stove. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms and a shower room. The cottage would make ideal overflow accommodation to the main house, a separate dwelling for dependant relatives or could be returned to a successful holiday let.
Outside, there is off street parking for multiple cars, as well as a covered yard area ideal for storage. There is also a small outbuilding that houses the oil tank and currently used as a workshop.
Attached to the cottage, is a barn currently used as a utility room and storage. With the correct permissions this could be converted as an additional living accommodation.
Leading to the rear, reveals a beautiful secret garden which consists of a vegetable patch, flower beds and mature trees. There is a lovely summer house with electric to enjoy this peaceful garden all year round.
