Blacksmiths Cottage is a striking property full of charm and period features set over 2, 000 sq. ft. arranged over two floors. Extremely well-presented the property is in an idyllic setting opposite the village pond in a popular rural village location.
The ground floor accommodation flows from a reception hall that opens onto the dining room and the comfortable sitting room which has oak beams and a wood burning stove with exposed brick surround. At the heart of the property is the kitchen which has shaker style units, quarry tiles, an Aga and leads into the bright conservatory. For casual eating there is a breakfast bar and just off the kitchen a very useful pantry and cloakroom.
On the second floor there is a spacious principal bedroom with an en-suite shower room, three further bedrooms, a study and a bathroom with a freestanding copper bath and a walk-in shower.
The property also benefits from having a garden office with a wood burner and French doors out to the garden that is in an outbuilding with a garage and two stores.
Located at the confluence of the rivers Ouse and Nidd, Nun Monkton is an historic village with a thriving community spirit centred around a working 20-acre village green with duck pond and maypole and amenities including a church, vineyard and brewery, village public house and popular primary school. The village enjoys easy access to further amenities in local villages and to the extensive shopping, recreational and leisure facilities in York, Harrogate and Leeds.
Communications links are excellent: the nearby A1(M) ensures easy access to both the north and south of the country and the national motorway network, as do the excellent links from Hammerton train station which offers regular services to Harrogate, York, Leeds and central London.
The area offers a good selection of state schooling including Nun Monkton Primary Foundation School in the village, Manor C of E School and Harrogate Grammar School, as well as a wide range of noted independent schools including Queen Ethelburga’s College, Cundall Manor, Harrogate Ladies’ College, Queen Mary’s, St. Peter’s and Ashville College.
The property is approached through a five-bar gate over a driveway providing private off-road parking for multiple vehicles and giving access to the detached garage bordered by an area of level lawn interspersed by a variety of specimen trees. The well-maintained enclosed garden to the rear features an expanse of level lawn bordered by mature shrubs and trees together 2 practical store rooms, and an office with a log burning stove, and a beautiful outlook over the courtyard to the rear of the property.
