5 bed cottage for sale

Water End, Brompton, Northallerton DL6

This beautifully presented, south-west facing, five-bedroom detached cottage is situated in the picturesque Water End area of Brompton village. Tastefully converted in 2015 from an old tractor barn, Mill Cottage is nestled between two other uniquely converted properties on the same private driveway, including a windmill. All were originally part of Mill Farm, the small dairy farm serving the village.

This eco-friendly conversion boasts curb appeal with its skilful blend of reclaimed cobble and brickwork, complemented by oak-flanked dormer windows, creating the perfect cottage look. Even the rear view is eye-catching. The timber-framed building, constructed within solid external walls and fully insulated with cosy sheep wool, achieves a 'B' rating on the Energy Performance Certificate.

The internal accommodation includes an entrance cloakroom and utility room, a spacious kitchen-diner, a snug, an office, and two downstairs bedrooms. Upstairs, the property features the main lounge, three additional bedrooms (one with an en-suite shower room and a dressing room), and a family bathroom.

Externally, the property offers a side patio in a sun-trap, parking for two to three vehicles, and a part hard standing for a small caravan. Across the driveway is an enclosed lawned garden with picket fencing, attractive perennial flower borders, a paved patio area, a potting shed, and a large timber shed.

The cottage benefits from timber framed double glazing and gas central heating, with underfloor heating throughout the downstairs.
