Description

The Busks Cottage is a generously proportioned home, attractively positioned on the outskirts of the historic market town of Middleham, in the heart of Wensleydale. Renowned for its impressive castle and strong racehorse heritage, Middleham offers an excellent range of amenities including a local shop, well-regarded pubs and restaurants, and a primary school.
The property has been recently redecorated throughout and benefits from newly fitted carpets, creating a fresh and welcoming interior. It also enjoys the comfort of oil-fired central heating.

Internally, the accommodation is spacious and well laid out. The ground floor is entered via a front porch, leading to two large reception rooms, one of which incorporates a sunroom opening directly onto the garden. Further ground-floor features include a south-facing conservatory, a well-proportioned kitchen diner, a utility room, and a downstairs WC.

To the first floor are three generous double bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite facilities and access to a veranda, along with a separate house bathroom.
Externally, the property boasts a large, enclosed garden with a charming feature stream and patio area, ideal for outdoor entertaining. There is also a good-sized gated parking area providing space for several vehicles.
