2 bed terraced house for sale

Tarrs Yard, Westow, York YO60

A delightful & recently refurbished Grade II Listed stone-built cottage offering deceptively spacious two double bedroom accommodation, together with easily maintained gardens in a sought-after location.

Primrose Cottage is a charming stone-built cottage, enjoying a pleasant outlook onto the green within one of Ryedale’s most popular villages. The cottage occupies an end/corner position within this pretty row, which is believed to date from the late 1700s. Within the last year or so, the property has been tastefully refurbished throughout, to include a stylish new kitchen, updated electric radiators and pressurised hot water cylinder. The cottage is currently run as a successful holiday let, but would make a lovely permanent home or bolt hole.

The cottage is Listed Grade II as being of architectural or historic interest and the accommodation, which amounts to over 700ft2, includes a 17ft sitting room, guest cloakroom, kitchen, first floor landing, two double bedrooms and a house shower room. Externally there is a lawned garden to the front, with paved path leading to the front door. There is an additional gravelled garden area to the side, alongside the kitchen. Parking is available on the village street.

Westow is an attractive conservation village set in pleasant countryside, in an area where the landscape of the Howardian Hills opens out into the rolling hills of the Yorkshire Wolds. The village benefits from a highly regarded pub and restaurant, The Blacksmith’s Arms and has a well-supported cricket club. The nearby market town of Malton (6 miles) offers a good range of amenities, including shops, restaurants and cafes, tennis courts, swimming pool, gym, cinema and excellent schools. There is easy access to York, approximately 14 miles, with all its varied facilities, including a mainline railway station with direct services to London Kings Cross in less than 2 hours.
