Beckside, Barmby Moor, York

DESCRIPTION What a rare opportunity to acquire such a stunning contemporary cottage, originally dating back to 1746, where period character and modern comforts have been beautifully combined.
With so much more than initially meets the eye, this charming home offers a wonderful balance of warmth, comfort and practicality. Full of character yet thoughtfully adapted for modern living, it is a property that immediately feels both welcoming and homely.

On entering, the entrance hall provides access to the principal reception rooms, with stairs rising to the first floor and traditional wooden doors complemented by charming Suffolk latches, perfectly in keeping with the character of the property.

The beautiful sitting room enjoys a dual aspect, filling the space with natural light. Character features include exposed beams and a multi-fuel stove which forms a natural focal point. A raised seating area, finished with York stone flooring and featuring a decorative corner stove, creates a particularly inviting space, whilst patio doors open directly onto the rear garden - making this a room to enjoy throughout the seasons.

The extended kitchen/diner leads through to the snug, creating a wonderful social heart to the home. With windows to three sides, the kitchen is wonderfully light and bright and has a quality feel throughout. The hand-painted wooden cabinetry, Belfast sink and Rangemaster cooker are beautifully in keeping with the cottage's character. There is ample space for a generous dining table and additional furniture, whilst further patio doors open onto the rear garden, creating an ideal connection between the inside and outside spaces.

An opening with a step down leads into the cosy snug, where tiled flooring and a decorative stove create a relaxed and intimate space - perfect for unwinding.

Completing the ground floor is a useful utility room, fitted with modern navy cabinetry, a wall-mounted gas-fired boiler and plumbing for a washing machine, together with a convenient downstairs WC finished with quarry style flooring and in keeping stable door to the rear garden.

To the first floor are three bedrooms. Two well-proportioned double bedrooms enjoy a front aspect and both benefit from built-in furniture, whilst the third bedroom provides a useful single bedroom or versatile additional space.

The landing offers useful storage and access to the loft. The house bathroom is particularly impressive, exuding elegance and a sense of luxury. Recently fitted, it combines a contemporary shower with a traditional roll-top claw-foot bath, pedestal wash basin and WC, all beautifully complemented by solid oak flooring.

Outside, the property continues to impress. The mature rear garden offers a number of secluded seating areas, allowing you to enjoy different aspects of the garden throughout the day. Predominantly laid to lawn, mature fruit trees and established shrubs frame a pleasant winding pathway which leads to a tucked-away summer house at the bottom of the garden, creating a wonderfully private retreat and a space to enjoy for hours.

A paved terrace provides ample room for alfresco dining and entertaining, whilst a gravelled driveway offers generous off-street parking and leads to the garage. The garage benefits from double-opening doors, power and lighting, together with useful eaves storage.

This is a truly special property - a delightful combination of period charm, contemporary comfort and beautifully considered living spaces, with a garden that is equally appealing. A real pleasure to present, and one we hope you will enjoy as much as we do.
