The very essence of a chocolate box cottage!

Definitely one of the most stunning, homely and characterful properties Quick & Clarke have marketed for a number of years. Having been extended, remodelled and updated over time, this much loved family house is the very essence of a "chocolate box" stone cottage.

Offering flexibility of layout and with three reception rooms, a fabulous living dining kitchen with Aga, five bedrooms, and three bathrooms, the property is situated on a beautiful, established plot surrounded by attractive gardens.

Location - The property is located on the eastern side of North Cave close to the historic church and playing fields. North Cave is a popular location due to the ease of access to the motorway and lying close to the amenities of South Cave and Brough. The village offers a number of amenities which includes public house, church, mini mart, post office and primary school. The property also sits in the catchment area for the highly regarded South Hunsley secondary school.
