Description A charming, stone and slate built cottage within the thriving village of Dent, enjoying a prominent position along the cobbles with easy access to local amenities and views over the churchyard.

Offering a kitchen/living/dining room to the ground floor with three bedrooms and a bathroom, the accommodation is appointed over three floors, ideal as a bolthole to explore the Yorkshire Dales and surrounding area, or as a permanent home for those looking for rural living.

Property Overview Step through the door into the open plan living/kitchen/dining room, presenting a cosy atmosphere with wooden floor and log burning stove with stone surround, ideal for those cooler evenings. The kitchen itself is well fitted with base units, comprising a Butler sink and oven with four ring hob with space for undercounter appliances. A window overlooks the church yard, and stairs lead to the first floor. The kitchen also houses the boiler, with the oil tank being situated externally to the rear of the property.

Follow the stairs to the first floor landing where you will find bedroom two and the family bathroom. Being a flexible double room, bedroom two provides great scope as a second sitting room, home office or guest bedroom with a front aspect window with window seat. The bathroom comprises a bath, sink, W.C. and part tiled walls to finish.

Finally, stairs lead to the second floor where you will find the further two bedrooms. Bedroom one is a double to the front aspect, again enjoying space for additional furniture whilst bedroom three is a single room to the rear aspect, enjoying views overlooking the church.
