House For Sale £485,000
One of only a pair, built in 2013 on the site of a former chapel. Chapel Cottages enjoys an envious position on the Main Street of this highly sought-after village. With far-reaching views, large south-facing rear garden and an extended open plan kitchen are just a few of the wonderful features of this home. This beautiful home is in turnkey condition, ready for the new owners to throw back the bi-fold doors and enjoy the tranquillity of this rural retreat, situated on the edge of farmland. We highly recommend a viewing to fully appreciate the pleasant position of this property.
Constructed in 2013 and discreetly positioned behind a well-tended hedge, this semi-detached property enjoys a good degree of privacy from the main street. The entrance hall, as with the whole ground floor has oak engineered wooden flooring and stairs leading to the first floor. There is an understairs cupboard and a ground floor WC. The larger than average WC is fitted with a two-piece suite, which includes a toilet and hand wash basin with storage cupboard below. There is a large window to the side elevation with opaque glass and an extractor fan.
Located to the front of the property and boasting a large bay window is the formal sitting room. Neutral in decor this is the perfect blank canvas on which the new owner can make their own mark. The position of this property affords a private sitting room with a hedgerow outlook beyond the driveway.
As the heart of the home, the kitchen really offers the wow factor. Recently extended with a pitched roof, Velux windows and bi-folding doors, which open onto a large patio - this room is sure to impress.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of shaker-style base and wall units with laminate work preparation areas over and contrasting tiled splashbacks. Integrated appliances include an oven, hob and extractor. Space is provided for a fridge freezer, washing machine and dishwasher. A stainless-steel sink and drainer sit below a decorative opening, providing views of the rear garden beyond. The kitchen area is large enough to accommodate a good-sized dining table, in addition to an informal seating arrangement at the island, which also has storage cupboards.
Beyond the kitchen dining area is a sitting room with ample space for a variety of furniture. Velux windows and fully glazed bi-fold doors come complete with made to measure blinds. The large patio seating area beyond the bi-folding doors is another living area in itself and perfectly dressed with attractive pots and ample space for a seating and dining area. Steps lead down to the fully enclosed, large, lawned garden.
To the first floor, the main bedroom boasts not only a full run of built-in wardrobes to the rear wall, but also an ensuite shower room. The ensuite is fitted with a three-piece shower room suite to include a low-level WC, sink and shower cubical. Neutral tiling, a heated towel rail, extractor fan and an opaque glazed window to the side are all additional features worthy of note.
Another good size double bedroom, bedroom two enjoys uninterrupted views of the rear garden and stunning open views of the farmland beyond. Ample space is provided for a bed, wardrobes and additional furniture items.
Bedroom three is currently use as an office but is a good size single bedroom with views to the rear.
Bedroom four would make a pleasant office or young child's room and alongside bedroom 2 and 3, is also served by the house bathroom.
The house bathroom is fitted with a three-piece suite to include a low-level WC, sink and bath with shower over. Neutral tiling to the walls and floor could complement bathroom accessories in any number of colour combinations. A good size, opaque window to the side elevation allows for a naturally light bathroom. A heated towel rail and extractor fan complete the bathroom.
The landing area has a hatch giving access to the loft space which features part boarding, a light and a loft ladder.
Externally there is a block-paved driveway with ample parking directly in front of the property, while a hedged boundary provides both privacy and an attractive outlook from the sitting room. A gate to the side of the property leads to a path giving access to the south-facing rear garden and is the perfect space in which to discreetly store external bins. The oil-fired central heating boiler and tank are also located here, along with a hot and cold external tap, ideal for washing off the great outdoors. The south facing, rear garden comprises of the patio terrace and a substantial lawn planted with a selection of attractive shrubs and small trees. The open countryside beyond adds further to the feeling of space.

The ground floor features Thermoboard underfloor heating, while the first floor is heated via traditional radiators and heated towel rails in the bathrooms. The south facing, rear roof has solar panels generating electricity.

The village of Colton is an ideal location for those who enjoy beautiful walks with many just a stone's throw away. The village is served by Ye Old Sun Inn, a popular public house, gin distillery and chocolatiers. The traditional phone box located on the main street has long lost its communication capabilities, however, its reach within this small village is still widely felt with a fabulous book exchange. Regular deliveries are made to the village from the local milk man and fish monger, while the nearest convenience stores are located just along the road at Bilbrough Top garage or The Co-op in Copmanthorpe. There is also a bus service to and from the village.
