Description

A most attractive, three-bedroom Victorian cottage offering characterful accommodation with easily maintained gardens in a sought-after location in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The Old School House is an especially attractive, period cottage dating from 1854, and constructed of solid limestone walls beneath a slate roof. The property retains a huge amount of character, and provides three-bedroom accommodation of almost 1,150sq.ft. Along with the former school and headmaster’s cottage, the terrace forms an important part of the streetscape in this quiet and sought-after part of Oswaldkirk.

In brief, it comprises entrance hall, sitting room with open fire, inner hall, dining room with study area and multi-fuel stove, ground floor shower room, kitchen and utility room. Upstairs there are three bedrooms and a house bathroom.

The cottage occupies a slightly elevated position, with pretty, yet easily maintained garden areas to the front and side, featuring stone flagged and gravelled seating areas and shrub borders. In addition, there are several outhouses providing useful storage, including a fuel store, boiler store, garden and tool stores. On-street parking is available nearby, and spaces within the car park further along the terrace can be rented on an annual basis (currently c. £150).

Oswaldkirk is a pretty village, pleasantly situated in an attractive area of countryside between the North York Moors National Park and the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village is well placed for easy access to the Georgian market town of Helmsley, located approximately 4 miles north and the neighbouring village of Ampleforth some 2 ½ miles west.
