Oak flooring and a log-burning stove give the room a warm, relaxed character.

The first floor has two bedrooms, both with fitted cabinetry and far-reaching southerly views, together with a luxurious bathroom.

The second floor is given over to the principal bedroom suite, with a dressing room and four-piece bathroom incorporating a freestanding bath.

The bedroom has a glazed door opening to a frameless glass balustrade, allowing the full extent of the outlook to be appreciated, reaching towards the moorland plateau of Blakey Ridge.

Outside - A five-bar gate set within a stone wall opens onto the gravel driveway, which sweeps around to the front of the house.

Immediately in front of the house, a paved and sheltered terrace catches the sun from the south and west.
