THIS charming cottage proves to be deceptively spacious with a large back garden and four double bedrooms. Not only that, but Barnsdale Cottage in Main Street, Westow, also boasts a garden room, car port and workshop, all set in a beautiful Ryedale village location.

On the market with Hunters at £299,950, the cottage has an attractive front with three stone steps leading up to the front door and ivy climbing up the stone front.

Walking through the front door, you enter the large reception room, which features a large bay window, a part-wooden ceiling and a feature fireplace with a wooden mantle.

Opposite the reception room is the cosy living room, which currently has two sofas and an armchair proving that there is more than enough of space to relax in this room.

The combined kitchen and further dining area has wooden-style flooring and plenty of worktop space and storage cupboards. There is an integrated fridge/freezer and a gas oven, while the dining area has a feature stone wall.

Heading upstairs, all four bedrooms are big enough for double beds and two feature fitted wardrobes. The bathroom has an elegant free-standing bath with clawed feet, as well as a shower cubicle with electric shower.

Outside, the garden is just as lovely as the inside of the cottage and even boasts a garden room. The lawned garden could easily be made into a little haven for relaxation through both winter and summer.

Two patio areas provide ample space for entertaining during the summer months, while the coal bunker is useful for practical reasons. The garden also has a workshop with a new roof, power, light and a water supply.

The garage offers more storage space, as well as space to park a car. There is also off-street parking and a car port.
