Property description
A very charming cottage situated in the heart of this popular Wharfedale village, with the unusual advantage of a delightful garden, as well as characterful two bedroom accommodation.
Laburnum Cottage offers charming two double bedroom accommodation, larger than its outward appearance would suggest as the cottage is L-shaped, hence its deceptive facade. The cottage has many character rustic features and offers two reception rooms plus the kitchen, with two double bedrooms and a spacious bathroom on the first floor. There is a good open aspect from the front across an adjoining open field to the pretty stone cottages beyond. It is unusual for properties of this type to have a garden, but just over the unmade lane, there is a lovely garden area with lawn and flower beds belonging to Laburnum Cottage.
The property is located in the heart of the picturesque Wharfedale village of Hebden whilst the local amenities are close by including a shop, post office, public house and church. Hebden lies a short distance from the bustling town of Grassington with its health centre, small supermarket, numerous high quality shops, restaurants, public houses etc, Primary and Secondary schooling is to the highest of standards and the area is surrounded by some spellbinding countryside. For the commuter the thriving market town of Skipton is approximately ten miles distant which has a railway station providing regular service to Leeds, Bradford and London. Laburnum Cottage would be ideal for anyone seeking a comfortable home of character but may equally appeal to those wanting a second/holiday home.
