This charming country cottage, nestled within expansive grounds exceeding three-quarters of an acre, presents a noteworthy renovation opportunity just outside the North York Moors National Park and near Burniston village. Having been in the same ownership for over four decades, this character property has not been on the market since its initial acquisition, during which it underwent significant refurbishment. Currently, it requires extensive renovation work to restore its former charm and enhance its living space. With potential for extension (subject to planning permissions), this unlisted gem built over 200 years ago offers approximately 1,700 square feet of adaptable living area. The layout includes an entrance hall, dual-aspect sitting room featuring an open fire, a spacious living room with an original fireplace and fitted bookshelves, a large breakfast kitchen with utility space, a cloakroom, and a lovely garden room opening onto a generous flagged terrace. The upper floor hosts a sizable main bedroom with dual aspect windows along with two additional bedrooms and a roomy house bathroom. The property is set in remarkably private gardens with both formal lawns enriched by mature shrubs and fruit trees as well as a more natural garden complemented by established woodland at the northern perimeter. Ample parking is available on the long driveway beside the house along with a practical garage building. The village of Burniston is well-regarded for its community spirit and local amenities including pubs, shops, and schools noted for their quality education, making this location especially appealing for those who enjoy outdoor pursuits such as coastal walks.
