A beautifully presented 5 bedroom detached stone built home with origins believed to date back to the 18th Century, situated in a picturesque village on the edge of the breathtaking North York Moors National Park. Features include 2 elegant reception rooms, a high specification kitchen, 2 bathrooms, a gated driveway, delightful gardens and a double garage.
Believed to date back to the 1700s, this beautifully restored and extended former carter's cottage was comprehensively refurbished by the current owners in 2015. It now offers approximately 2,100 sq ft of characterful and well appointed living accommodation.
The property enjoys an enviable setting within the picturesque village of Kilburn and, like one half of the village, lies within the boundary of the North York Moors National Park, a protected area of outstanding natural beauty renowned for its sweeping heather moorland, deep wooded valleys and 26 miles of dramatic coastline. In total the National Park extends across approximately 554 square miles.
A charming stable style entrance door opens into a welcoming reception hall, where exposed beams and bespoke wrought iron balustrading immediately showcase the home's period character and craftsmanship.
The cosy dual aspect sitting room enjoys views over the front and side gardens and features exposed beams, wall lighting and a Charnwood wood-burning stove creating a warm and inviting living space.
The formal dining room flows seamlessly into a high-specification Howdens kitchen, which provides ample space for informal dining. The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of quality cabinetry and integrated appliances including an induction hob, eye-level double oven and grill, dishwasher and fridge.
Beyond the kitchen is an exceptionally spacious utility room with additional storage and a personnel door providing direct access to the integral double garage.
The ground floor also benefits from 2 cloakrooms/WCs accessed from the reception hall and the utility room adding practicality for family living and entertaining.
The elegant wrought iron balustrading continues on the first floor landing which leads to a generously proportioned dual aspect principal bedroom, a guest bedroom with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom, 3 further bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom complete with both a bath and separate walk-in shower.
Further features include oil fired central heating, double glazing throughout and oak internal doors finished with attractive pewter door furniture.
Outside, a gated driveway and turning area provide ample off road parking and access to the integral double garage which benefits from a remote controlled door.
The attractive cottage style front garden is planted with mature shrubs and features an original stone built well, adding to the property's historic charm.
The principal gardens are situated to the side of the house on slightly elevated ground and include a well maintained lawn, a paved seating terrace and gated access to a secluded kitchen garden. This productive space features a cedar built greenhouse, storage shed, vegetable beds, soft fruit planting areas and a selection of established fruit trees, making it ideal for keen gardeners and those seeking a self-sufficient lifestyle.
