Steps lead up to an inner hall then on to the dining room, a delightful room with a window to the side and an original stone fireplace housing a wood burning stove. There are also built in alcove cupboards.
The kitchen has a range of modern wall, base and drawer units with working surfaces over. Windows to two elevations afford a good deal of natural light, a wide serving hatch opens onto the dining room and a half glazed door opens onto the rear.
On the first floor are two double bedrooms, the master having ceiling timbers, a window to the front and original cast iron fireplace. The second bedroom has a window to the rear along with a cast iron fireplace.
The house bathroom is also on this floor and has a three piece suite including shower facility over the bath.
On the second floor there are two further double bedrooms, the fourth bedroom having a wealth of storage in the eaves. These two bedrooms share use of the shower room on this floor.
Outside at the front of the property there is a good sized, low maintenance garden. At the rear is the very pleasant, south facing garden which is paved with Yorkshire stone flags. The patio area at the rear has raised planted beds and a wide raised stone shelf ideal for pots. Shallow steps lead to a larger seating area with a magnificent lilac tree and original stone walling. At the rear of the garden are two very useful outbuildings. A rear access leads to a hardstanding area.
This lovely house sits in a fantastic position, in the conservation area, in the heart of Burley in Wharfedale which is undoubtedly one of the area's more popular village communities, combining a lovely, traditional and semi-rural environment with good accessibility for the West Yorkshire business traveller.
