Waterside, Knaresborough, North Yorkshire, HG5

A most beautiful, detached home set in one of the most idyllic locations on the Waterside in Knaresborough with the river Nidd running around the property. The gorgeous views and wildlife all around gives you a countryside setting yet we are in 'Grade A' location within a short walk to the centre of Knaresborough.

Knaresborough for those of you less familiar with the town is one of the most sought-after locations to live in North Yorkshire. It has excellent schools, beautiful river walks and easy connectivity for the commuters by rail and road. The pretty market town is a throw back in time with many artisan cafes, an excellent bakery, independent eateries, numerous butchers and a weekly fresh farmers market with a wide selection including excellent fresh fish.

The property was fully refurbished four years ago by the present owner to include, new orangery, new kitchen, new bathrooms, new flooring, new plasterwork, new radiators, new fire and surround and new built in wardrobes, also the property was originally four bedrooms, but the owners have opted to convert to three and allow for a huge master suite. One could of course revert to the original specification for minimal cost.

Enter in the inviting reception hall. There is a utility room and very handy large storage space under the stairs with the added benefit of a study/ bedroom 3 to complement the ground floor.

The hall then leads us to the real 'Wow Factor' rooms on the ground floor. First the stunning open plan kitchen dining room which has been enhanced further by a beautifully proportioned Orangery. This is a space which offers so much to the home, you can relax, enjoy family time, throw a party, it is the undoubted hub of the home.

For the chefs amongst you the quality of kitchen is going to impress. There is plenty of storage in the tailor-made cabinets, excellent standard of appliances with all the key essential being 'built in'. There are some additional nice touches such as the wine cooler and fabulous modern AGA gas range cooker as the focal point. Surfaces are good quality/hard wearing and easy to clean down and of course there is what everyone wants, the stunning kitchen island. One can also access the sun terrace garden from the Orangery which really brings the outside in and makes for the ideal spot for al fresco dining, afternoon tea and of course the Summer BBQ.

The living room is equally impressive, a luxurious soft carpet invites you in, there is a gorgeous surround fireplace, and the room is of large proportion to accommodate all furnishings. Tones are neutral throughout and there is an abundance of natural light from the twin double patio doors opening to the terrace which offers views to the river. It is so relaxing in this room.

The first floor continues to impress with the most stunning principal bedroom with ensuite. There are wardrobes built in, large windows offering plenty of natural light and a neutral colour scheme throughout. It is large in size yet very homely and cosy in feel. The second bedroom has a similar feel again with wardrobes and both have the benefit of easy access to the house bathroom with free standing tub as well as a shower cubicle.

Externally the waterside position is simply stunning and needs to be seen in person to be fully appreciated. There is also a garage with power and lighting.

Overall, a property sat in a wonderful location in great condition and beautifully presented. Do enjoy the photo reel and book your viewing soon as we anticipate strong interest in this lovely home.
