East Lane, Embsay, Skipton, North Yorkshire, BD23

Beautifully positioned in the centre of Embsay, this spacious four bedroom family home offers a wonderful blend of character, modern comfort and an unusually spacious garden with far reaching views towards Embsay Crag. Arranged over three floors and thoughtfully and extensively improved by the current owners, the property provides generous living space, an impressive dining kitchen, and a superb garden - an ideal setting for family life in the heart of this highly desirable historic Yorkshire village.

Upon entering the property through the front elevation, you are greeted by a spacious, recently renovated dining kitchen. The kitchen features a modern range of base, wall, and drawer units with stylish wooden worktops, a double Belfast sink, and an integrated fridge/freezer and dishwasher. It also boasts a mini range STOVES cooker with a gas hob, electric oven below, and an extractor fan above. A cupboard houses the gas combination boiler, and there is a kitchen island offering additional storage and a dining area. The space comfortably accommodates a good-sized dining table. Adjacent to the kitchen, there is a separate utility area under the stairs, providing plumbing for both a washing machine and the potential for a w.c. (if desired). Moving through to the well-proportioned living room, you’ll find a charming feature: a multi-fuel stove set within a stone hearth, framed by an exposed chimney breast. French double doors lead from the living room out to the rear garden, allowing plenty of natural light to flood the space and offering delightful views of the garden. The entire ground floor is heated by underfloor heating via a water system, with the first floor being serviced by central heating radiators.

The first-floor landing provides access to three bedrooms and the house bathroom. Bedrooms two and three are positioned at the rear of the property, offering stunning open views of the garden and beyond. The master bedroom, located at the front, is generously sized, featuring two UPVC double-glazed windows that flood the room with natural light. It comfortably accommodates a king-sized bed, as shown in the images. The house bathroom has been tastefully upgraded in recent years, fitted with a stylish four-piece suite. This includes a classic clawfoot bath, a separate shower cubicle with a rainfall shower, a Burlington high-level w.c., a pedestal hand wash basin, and a heated towel rail, all complemented by partially tiled walls.

Continuing up to the second floor, you will find the fourth bedroom, a generously sized room converted by the current owners. It features exposed beams, two Velux windows that provide excellent natural light, and ample eaves storage on both sides. This floor also benefits from an en-suite bathroom, fitted with a white three-piece suite comprising a panelled bath, low flush w.c., corner hand wash basin, extractor fan, heated towel rail, and partially tiled walls. Heating on this level is provided by electric wall heaters and is not connected to the main gas central heating system.

Externally, to the front of the property, approached from East Lane on to a lovely sun terrace with sufficient space for seating. To the rear, is the attractive garden with stunning open views looking out on to Embsay Crag. It is mostly laid to lawn along with mature fruit trees, bushes and shrubbery and a paved patio area allowing for ample seating. There is also a large shed to the top of the garden, which includes power and lighting facilities as well as being fully insulated.
