Burney Beck Cottages, Great Asby, CA16

Burney Beck Cottages are tucked into the rolling hills of Great Asby, offering a rare opportunity, as properties in this sought-after village seldom come to the market.
Located just five miles from the bustling market town of Appleby-in-Westmorland, Great Asby is much loved for its welcoming community feel, excellent primary school, friendly village pub and beautiful church. The Cumbrian parish of Asby sits within the former county of Westmorland and lies in the northern section of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, known as the Westmorland Dales.
The cottage enjoys a quiet setting on a private lane, forming part of a small row of similar homes. There is convenient parking and private gardens to the rear. The home has been beautifully maintained, with full double glazing and uPVC doors to both the front and rear.
Inside, the calm and neutral décor is ideal for those seeking a move-in-ready home with minimal work required. A new oil-fired central heating system has been recently installed, reflected in the improved energy efficiency rating of the property.
The cottage enjoys wonderful open views across rolling hills and the peaceful sound of nearby becks. The current owner has thoughtfully updated the property, creating an immaculate and inviting home throughout.
On entering, you are welcomed by a bright hallway with a pleasant view through to the kitchen and a charming cottage garden beyond. There is a useful understairs cupboard, providing excellent storage.
The kitchen is situated at the rear and has been thoughtfully designed, with white units, complementary toned tiling and grey quartz-effect work surfaces. A west-facing window above the sink floods the room with natural light. Plumbing is in place for a washing machine, and the layout is both functional and attractive.
From the kitchen or hallway, you can access the spacious lounge, a lovely dual-aspect room with views over the garden to the rear and the hills to the front. The focal point is a brick-built fireplace with tiled hearth and an electric living flame fire, offering a cosy feel on cooler days. The lounge is large enough to accommodate a generous dining table, with ample space for entertaining.
Upstairs, the light and airy feel continues. There is a good-sized airing cupboard on the landing, perfect for linen storage.
The bathroom has been recently renovated and is fresh and modern, with a white suite including a bath with shower over, low flush WC and pedestal sink.
There are three bedrooms, all well proportioned. The rear bedroom is a spacious double with fitted wardrobes along one wall and lovely garden views. The principal bedroom, at the front, also benefits from fitted mirrored wardrobes that reflect natural light and create a bright, open atmosphere. Loft access is available via a hatch in this room, with good insulation in place. The third bedroom is front-facing and is ideal for use as a child’s bedroom, nursery, home office, or dressing room.
Outside, the rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped, with a patio area and a raised section laid with artificial grass for low maintenance. The oil tank is neatly tucked away in the corner, with the external boiler mounted on the side wall.
The front garden is similarly low maintenance, laid with decorative pebbles, and there is a covered porch, perfect for muddy boots or bin storage. Parking is situated to the front of the property, with allocated spaces for the row of cottages.
This lovely cottage will appeal to a variety of buyers, from families to those seeking a peaceful village retreat. Viewings are by appointment only. Please note the property is subject to a local occupancy clause.
