Description
Seaton House is a beautifully presented property situated in the picturesque village of Carlton in Coverdale, a highly sought-after location within the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Coverdale attracts visitors all year round, with the renowned Forbidden Corner, excellent walking routes, and strong equestrian connections in nearby Middleham. The village itself offers a charming community-run country pub and village hall, contributing to a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
This beautiful Grade II listed property, formerly a shop, has been tastefully modernised to a high standard while retaining an abundance of original character and charm throughout.
The accommodation from the entrance hall opens into a bespoke fitted kitchen featuring a generous range of units, an Aga, and space for a good-sized dining table. The spacious living room is a standout feature, showcasing an exposed stone wall, large windows that flood the space with natural light, and a wood-burning stove. There is also a practical boot room with an additional kitchen/pantry area, complete with traditional stone shelving and a door leading out to the rear patio garden. A useful cloakroom housing the oil central heating boiler, along with a separate shower room, completes the ground floor layout.
To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms, each offering ample space for furnishings and enjoying plenty of natural light. The accommodation is served by a well-appointed bathroom, fitted with a blend of modern fixtures and finished with character features.
Throughout the property, there is a wealth of charm and character, with traditional wooden doors, beams, and exposed stonework enhancing the sense of period appeal.
Externally, there is a private, low-maintenance rear patio garden ideal for plant pots and seating, along with a suntrap patio to the front, perfect for enjoying the setting and watching the world go by.
Seaton House offers an excellent opportunity as a lovely family home or holiday retreat. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate all that this exceptional home has to offer.
