Dating back to circa 1600, this superb Grade II listed cottage sits in an enviable position in the tranquil no-through village of Little Thirkleby. The property sits on a particularly generous plot with an expansive garden to the rear. This delightful property is brimming with characterful features including exposed wooden beams and feature fireplaces, with picturesque views from every window.

The Old Orchard has been in the same family for around 50 years, having undergone a number of modifications and improvements over the years, it now requires a degree refurbishment in certain areas and is ready for a new owner to make their own stamp on the property.

The house has been extended into a pretty brick-built outbuilding creating a useful annexe, with bedroom, en suite bathroom, sitting room and separate utility, that would work perfectly for dependent relatives or as a possible business venture.

The ground floor accommodation of the main house is particularly spacious with a two generous reception rooms, a study/ bedroom and adjoining bathroom. The hallway leads into the kitchen with windows overlooking the garden.

To the first floor there are three bedrooms and two shower rooms.

Externally, a large driveway to the side of the property provides plenty of parking space and leads on to the garage.

The attractive cottage garden to the rear is primarily laid to grass, dotted with a variety of mature fruit trees, flanked by hedges affording the property a great deal of privacy.
