Description

Positioned within the popular village of Riccall, this attractive two bedroom semi-detached cottage circa 1880, combines plenty of traditional character with a surprisingly generous arrangement of accommodation and outside space.

The painted brick exterior provides an appealing first impression, complemented by recently installed UPVC double glazed windows which have been chosen in a style sympathetic to the original property. Inside, the character continues through exposed timbers and original floorboards, traditional internal doors and two individual reception rooms, each with its own fireplace.

The lounge features an open fire, while the dining room sits at the heart of the ground floor with a wood-burning stove set within a substantial fireplace recess beneath a timber mantel. From here, the accommodation continues into a Shaker-style kitchen with solid timber work surfaces, Belfast-style sink and integral cooking appliances, with a useful utility area beyond. An additional storage cupboard, integral to the house, is accessed externally.

Upstairs are two bedrooms, both retaining character features including exposed timber, together with a shower room featuring a mains-fed rainfall shower and a separate WC.

One of the property's real strengths is the amount of outside space on offer. The generous enclosed garden extends away from the cottage with lawn, mature planting, fruit trees and a mixture of paved and gravelled areas. A covered seating area provides a sheltered spot within the garden, while there is also a covered log store and additional storage.

Towards the rear of the garden is an insulated timber cabin with power and lighting, providing a useful addition to the outside space.

With gas central heating provided by a combination condensing boiler, newly installed double glazing and a good balance of character and practical living space, Chapel Lane offers far more than its cottage frontage might initially suggest.




Simon Says, "This is one of those cottages that just keeps giving as you walk through it. You've got two proper reception rooms, an open fire and wood burner, loads of genuine character and then a garden that's far bigger than you'd expect when you first arrive. Add in the newly fitted windows and that useful cabin at the bottom of the garden, and there's a lot more to Chapel Lane than the pretty frontage initially lets on."

By law, we are required to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all potential buyers and sellers, and we take this responsibility very seriously. In line with HMRC guidelines, our trusted partner, Coadjute, will securely manage these checks on our behalf.

About Indigo Greens, York

The Raylor Centre James Street York YO10 3DW

Simon & Emma formed Propertymark registered Indigo Greens back in 2017 with over 20 years experience in estate agency within York. Gone are the suits, the pushy & pressurised sales pitches and the mind boggling antiquated jargon!

As a team, we want to change the way people think about estate agents as we aren't all bad. By treating each person individually and considering what they may need to help with a smooth transaction and maintaining great communication, we can move through the process much easier and instead keep an exciting time as stress-free as possible.

But don't let me tell you how it makes people feel, read for yourself...

"If we could give double the stars we would! #TeamworkMakesTheDreamWork at Indigo Greens! From Simon coming to do the valuation and he and Izzy doing the viewings, to Emma making sure things ran smoothly and Izzy progressing the sale, they are a brilliant estate agent to work with! Friendly, helpful, professional, their communication is second to none and their guidance through the whole process of selling our house kept things firmly on track and us sane! Can’t praise or recommend team Indigo Greens highly enough!" - Natalya - Aug 2025

"Absolutely first class service, proving that biggest isn't always the best. After a less than good experience with a larger agent with many branches, Simon and his team restored our faith in the process." - Mr L - April 2024

With our central and accessible location in Layerthorpe, York our team are flexible in order to meet you, whether at your home, the property you want to view or you want to come into the office to meet our team!

We look forward to meeting you!
