A unique and historical, character cottage situated within the beautiful Yorkshire Dales National Park whilst forming part of the designated Kettlewell Conservation Area.
First time on the market in over 100 years with a sunny 'south facing' garden together with the rare advantage of garage and private parking, this truly enchanting stone built end terraced cottage enjoys an idyllic setting within this picturesque Dales village adjacent to the Church and Kettlewell beck.
Expressions of interest are now being taken with viewings to commence from Saturday 16th January 2021 and with written offers to be submitted by 5pm on Monday 1st February 2021.
This is a rare and exciting opportunity to update a classic Dales cottage entirely in accordance with your own personal taste and an internal inspection is essential to appreciate the overwhelming appeal that this beautiful cottage has to offer. Possessing an abundance of charm and character, the very compact and easy to manage accommodation is currently arranged with two bedrooms to the first floor, one of which is accessed by passing through the other.
The colourful and perfectly south facing level rear garden certainly provides a particularly attractive feature, including a lawn with well stocked borders whilst also attracting a variety of birds and other wildlife. To the front there is a grassed area which leads down to the picturesque tree lined village beck, creating a tranquil and serene residential setting. In fact the name 'Kettlewell' comes from the word 'Chetelewelle' which means a bubbling spring or stream.
The property has been cherished by the same family for many decades; and offers the rare combination of excellent parking, garaging and garden space which can often be difficult to find within this price range, particularly in such a peaceful and desirable Dales setting.
The property is situated close to the Dales Way and certainly offers great holiday letting potential.
Kettlewell is a small rural community nestled in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park only six miles north of Grassington and also alongside the beautiful River Wharfe. Being situated in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, the village has remained mostly unchanged for many years and offers the classic and somewhat nostalgic Dales village feel of stepping back into a charming bygone era. The village benefits from a range of amenities including a choice of pubs/cafes whilst the surrounding fells and scenery offer a terrific landscape for walking, cycling and other outdoor pursuits, also being listed as a SSSI (Site of Special Scientific Interest) for their interesting geological features. The village was recently on the route of the popular 'Tour de Yorkshire' bike race whilst the nearby Dales capital of Grassington offers a superb calendar of annual events and festivals together with a wide variety of everyday shops and other amenities. The town of Skipton is only circa fifteen miles away to the south.
