About
Description Tucked away in a quiet courtyard just off Finkle Street, Knaresborough, this characterful two-bedroom Georgian cottage offers an exciting renovation opportunity in the heart of the town.
Believed to have been built in 1732, during the Georgian era, the cottage retains period features including exposed roof beams and traditional timber horizontal sliding windows.
Its compact accommodation provides scope to create a charming home combining historic character with modern comforts.
The entrance opens directly into the living room, where an exposed staircase leads to the first floor.
A galley kitchen and ground-floor shower room complete the downstairs accommodation, with two double bedrooms upstairs.
The timber windows are in reasonable condition; the remainder of the cottage requires renovation, giving the next owner an opportunity to shape the interior to their own requirements while retaining its period appeal.
The quiet courtyard setting offers a tucked-away position within easy reach of the High Street's shops, cafés and local amenities.
The cottage is leasehold, held on a 999-year lease commencing on 2 September 1732, with approximately 705 years remaining. Council Tax Band: B Tenure: Leasehold (705 years)
