Guide Price £300,000 - £325,000.<br/><br/>Ghyll Edge is a superb character Grade II listed cottage in the Swaledale village of Gunnerside. <br/><br/>Nestled on the edge of the village, the cottage enjoys a peaceful setting with minimal passing traffic and just one neighbouring house further along the lane. As the name suggests the property sits close to the ghyll, known as Gunnerside Beck, a very picturesque setting. <br/><br/>Gunnerside is a pretty village with a thriving community, good pub, two tea rooms, primary school and chapel. There are also superb views and walks in all directions.<br/><br/>Ghyll Edge dates back to approximately 1780, retaining plenty of character features including flag stone floors, ceiling beams and stone cheese shelves in the cellar. The current vendors have owned the property for over 14 years. In their ownership, they have carried out an extensive programme of works which include new central heating, a full rewire, new windows and works to the roof. The finish is to a very high standard and the result is a comfortable home ready to enjoy, a real turn key property.<br/><br/>On the ground floor, the entrance hall leads to a WC and the living room. The living room benefits from a flag stone floor, ceiling beams, a fireplace housing a wood burning stove and sash window with a beautiful window seat. At the rear of the property, there is a dining kitchen with a stable door to the rear and stone steps down to a useful cellar. <br/><br/>Upstairs, the two bedrooms are good size doubles, both with sash windows, solid wood floors and views. There is also a modern shower room on this floor. On the second floor is an attic room, currently as an occasional third bedroom. It would also make a great hobby/ craft room. <br/><br/>Outside, the patio garden is south facing and low maintenance. There is a stone outhouse that houses the oil tank.
