5 & 6 The Myers, Bridge Street, Bedale

The Myers – No. 5 The Villas

The Myers comprises a characterful three-bedroom property dating back to the late 1880s, now offered to the open market for the first time. The current owner has sympathetically undertaken cosmetic renovation to create a wonderful family home.

The property is entered via a large boot room/utility, which leads through to the heart of the home - the kitchen. 

This bespoke kitchen is fitted with wall and base units finished in Farrow & Ball’s Forest Green and includes a range of integrated appliances. A dual-fuel Rangemaster sits set back within a feature surround, complemented by an engraved oak beam above by Charles Yorke. The kitchen also boasts a Thomas Denby Belfast sink with brass fittings, while the central island provides social seating and additional storage. A sash window floods the room with natural light.

From the kitchen, a hallway leads to the downstairs WC and a panelled understairs cupboard, once a traditional pantry. The mosaic-tiled floor here sets the tone for the rest of the accommodation. To the right is the study, fitted with bespoke bookcases and featuring original flooring alongside a working fireplace.

The sitting room is a warm and inviting space, centred around a large open fire. It features original floors, a unique circular window, dimmer lighting, and access to the front door.

To the first floor are three double bedrooms, one currently used as a dressing room. The family bathroom is beautifully finished with a nickel and brass roll-top bath, walk-in rainwater shower, WC and wash basin.

The Annexe – No.6 The Villas

The adjoining annexe, converted in the early 2000s, is a charming two bedroom property that has served as a long-term rental for many years. Equally, it presents excellent potential as an Airbnb, holiday let or bolt hole.

The accommodation is accessed via an entrance hall leading to a sitting room with electric fire. The kitchen, while serviceable with fitted units and plumbing for under-counter appliances, would benefit from modernisation.

The family bathroom includes a bath with shower over, wash basin, WC and Velux window. The ground-floor double bedroom has fitted wardrobes, while the first floor reveals a spacious double bedroom full of character.

Outbuildings & External 

A substantial brick outbuilding (measuring approx. 8m x 4m), the former stables, benefits from a concrete floor, mezzanine level, power supply and dual access points. Planning permission for a one-bedroom dwelling was previously explored, offering exciting potential (subject to the necessary consents).

Externally, the properties enjoy three designated parking spaces to the western boundary, with further off-road parking available. No. 5 also benefits from a useful log and coal store.
