Wath, Ripon, HG4

Full Description

Bumblebee Cottage, a beautiful four-bedroom character home, where original features, generous proportions, and a particularly fine garden combine to create something difficult to replicate at this price point.

The ground floor is arranged with real variety. A dual-aspect dining room centres on an inglenook fireplace with a log-burning stove, a genuinely characterful space that earns its keep through the winter months. The kitchen is well-equipped with wooden worktops, a stone-tiled floor, induction hob and integrated appliances, with French doors opening directly onto the garden and making the transition between inside and out effortless in summer. The living room provides a separate, quieter retreat, while the study and snug, with French doors, Velux roof lights and an exposed beamed ceiling, is one of the home's most memorable rooms: equally suited to working from home, a reading room, or simply making the most of the light.

Upstairs, four bedrooms are arranged around a landing with a light tunnel, keeping the first floor feeling bright. The principal bedroom has fitted storage and an en-suite with a corner shower and dual heads. Bedroom three is particularly generous, with dual aspect windows and wooden floors. The house bathroom is finished in stone with a corner bath and overhead shower.

Outside, the walled garden is a considerable asset, mainly laid to lawn, with established beds, mature trees around the perimeter, and a large elevated patio well-positioned for the afternoon sun. The double garage offers genuine workshop potential: 6.25m by 6.10m with power, lighting and eaves storage, plus a further storage room to the rear measuring 4.35m by 2.90m, with ample parking in front.

The Cathedral City of Ripon is a short drive for everyday amenities, schooling and transport links. Pateley Bridge and the upper dale lie to the west, with Brimham Rocks, Gouthwaite Reservoir and excellent walking and cycling country close at hand. Harrogate is within comfortable reach to the south.
