A pretty 3 bedroom semi detached cottage located in the centre of this highly regarded residential village east of Beverley.  The property has been a much loved home over many years but areas will require updating for some.  It offers 2 good sized reception rooms, a large dining kitchen and 3 bedrooms including 2 good doubles, in all nearly 1100 sq ft of accommodation.  In addition, there is a good sized garden and a long outbuilding which was a garage and could be re-used as such.  A really lovely property.

The property’s cottage feel is enhanced by its timber framed style exterior and exposed beams to the two reception rooms as well as doors and fireplaces.  Its room proportions though are of a more modern fashion, particularly the very generously proportioned kitchen which backs onto the garden and may provide an excellent opportunity for bifold doors onto the garden (subject to necessary regulations).  There may also be the potential to extend over the kitchen to extend the first floor, subject to necessary permissions.  The property may suit a range of purchasers, from downsizers to others looking for a larger property.  Its location in the centre of Skirlaugh with a good range of shops and amenities for a village is likely to have real appeal.  With oil fired central heating and extensive double glazing the accommodation comprises:  Entrance Vestibule, Living Room, Dining Room, Dining Kitchen and Bathroom with 4 piece suite including separate shower unit.  To the first floor are 2 Double Bedrooms and a Single Bedroom.  There are gardens to the front with a high privet hedge to the perimeter.  A gravelled driveway provides off street parking and leads to the building which was formerly a garage and could be returned to use as one (subject to any necessary permissions).  The rear garden is largely laid to lawn with a number or mature trees and shrubs and is not particularly overlooked. 

A really lovely property that demands an early internal inspection and has no forward chain.
