Description

Welcome to 7 Gatebeck Cottages, a beautifully presented semi detached cottage brimming with character offering a seamless blend of traditional charm and contemporary style. Nestled in a peaceful countryside setting, this delightful home features original details throughout including exposed wooden ceiling and window beams that add warmth and authenticity to every room.

Step into the welcoming entrance porch, ideal for muddy boots after countryside walks and enter the bright yet cosy living room complete with charming wooden ceiling beams, a large front-aspect window filling the room with natural light and a beautiful stone hearth and mantle framing an alcove - offering a perfect focal point for the space.

The living room flows effortlessly into the modern fitted kitchen and dining area designed with style and practicality in mind. Featuring wood-effect worktops, sleek grey base units, light wall cupboards and integrated appliances including a 4-ring gas hob with extractor, oven, dishwasher and fridge. There's plenty of space for a dining set up and patio doors that open directly into the private rear garden, ideal for indoor-outdoor living.

Adjoining the kitchen is a useful utility room, housing the boiler and providing plumbing and space for a washer/dryer. This area forms part of the integral garage, which has been cleverly divided-half now functioning as the utility space and the other half offering excellent storage for outdoor equipment, tools or general household items. The garage is fitted with an electric door for added convenience.

A handy cloak space sits just before the modern ground floor bathroom with built-in shoe storage and coat hanging space. The bathroom boasts a contemporary four-piece suite with a panelled bath, separate walk-in glass shower, vanity wash hand basin, WC, a vertical radiator and decorative floating shelves for stylish storage.

Also on the ground floor is Bedroom Four, a well-proportioned room with a tranquil rear aspect, ideal for guests, a home office or flexible family use.

Upstairs, the first floor landing exudes charm with exposed limestone and wooden beams creating a warm, rustic feel. Natural light pours in from the rear-facing windows, adding to the sense of space.

Bedroom One is a generous front-aspect double room with built-in wardrobes and views across the surrounding greenery, offering a peaceful retreat. Bedroom Two, also front-facing, is another spacious double room that would serve well as a secondary main bedroom. Bedroom Three is situated to the rear and while more compact, is still large enough for a small double bed or makes a comfortable single room with space to spare.

An additional room on the first floor has been part-converted by the current owners with plasterwork, extraction and electrics already completed in preparation for an upstairs shower room. This project has been left for the new owners to complete to their own tastes and requirements.

With traditional features throughout and modern upgrades already in place, 7 Gatebeck Cottages offers a rare opportunity to own a characterful, flexible home with further potential in a peaceful and picturesque setting.
