Located on Cumberland Street in the charming town of Skipton, this delightful two-bedroom house offers a perfect blend of comfort and modern living.
Upon entering, you are welcomed by an enclosed entrance vestibule that leads into a spacious living-dining room. This inviting space features a large double-glazed window overlooking Cumberland Street, allowing natural light to flood the room. The fireplace, while not currently in use, presents an opportunity for a gas or wood-burning stove, creating a warm and cosy atmosphere.
The dining area boasts a paneled wall, dado rail, and wall lights, enhancing the character of the home.
The modern breakfast-kitchen is a highlight, showcasing dark wood-effect worktops and a twin bowl sink positioned beneath another generous double-glazed window that looks out onto the rear yard, affectionately referred to as the "Yarden." The kitchen is equipped with high gloss units that provide ample storage, as well as space for a washer/dryer and fridge. The integrated electric hob, fan oven, and extractor canopy make cooking a pleasure. A useful under-stairs pantry adds to the practicality of the space. The double-glazed door opens onto the rear Yarden, which enjoys afternoon and evening sun, and includes two outhouses for additional storage, one of which has a power supply.
On the first floor, a return balustrade landing leads to a spacious bathroom featuring a corner bath with a Mira electric shower, a full pedestal wash basin, and a WC. The bathroom is well-appointed with a built-in linen cupboard and a ladder-style towel radiator, ensuring both functionality and comfort. The principal bedroom is generously sized, accommodating a double bed and offering space for fitted or freestanding wardrobes, while the second bedroom serves as a smaller double.
Additional features include on-street parking, gas central heating with a Worcester Bosch boiler installed in 2019, and a re-roofing completed in 2017. The property is conveniently located just a 10-minute walk from the train station and a mere 5 minutes from the bus station and High Street. With no forward chain and mortgage advice available, this property presents an excellent opportunity for both first-time buyers and those looking to downsize.
