Appledore Cottage is a characterful, double fronted cottage which has been creatively extended and improved in recent years to create a surprisingly generous family home, set in a large plot of 0.34 acres in total.
Forming the southern end of a stone-built terrace of three houses, Appledore Cottage retains plenty of character and has been reconfigured to create an open plan layout of living accommodation to the ground floor and includes a large ground floor bedroom and shower room, offering a flexible arrangement of rooms. Recent additions include the construction of a south facing garden room, with bi-fold doors onto a flagged terrace area, the installation of an air source heat pump and solar panels which supplement the electric, making it a surprisingly efficient period property to run.  
In all the cottage provides 1,556 square feet of modern accommodation, with nicely proportioned rooms, stylishly presented and comfortably appointed throughout, with underfloor heating to the ground floor. In brief the accommodation provides the following: front facing sitting room with an open fire and a door leading out to the sheltered rear courtyard, a large, open plan living dining kitchen with adjoining garden room and a bright triple aspect, doors opening out to the garden on two sides and a cosy seating area with woodburning stove. Separate utility area, rear hall and a large ground floor bedroom and separate shower room.  Upstairs are three generously proportioned double bedrooms and the main house bathroom.  
Appledore Cottage sits within a large, well-established plot, with a pretty cottage garden to its front and lawned gardens which wrap around the property to two sides. A sheltered courtyard garden is set behind the sitting room and adjacent to the dining area. There is ample parking on the drive and within the detached stone-built garage.   

Thorgill is a small hamlet, located two miles from the village of Rosedale Abbey. Rosedale Abbey is a bustling rural village and the principal settlement in the Rosedale Valley.  Unsurprisingly, given the stunning landscape the village is set within, Rosedale Abbey is a popular tourist destination and offers unrivalled opportunities for walkers and wildlife enthusiasts alike to explore the National Park. Within the village is a highly regarded deli and tearoom, general store, several public houses and craft workshops.  The village has a church and primary school (transport is provided) and is ten miles from the market town of Pickering and just a 30 minute drive from the lively and historic seaside town of Whitby. The Lion Inn at Blakey deemed ‘ The best pub in the North York Moors’ by the Guardian is just a two mile walk from the house and The Tree Relaxation Retreat which The Times names ‘one of the top 20 retreats in the world’ lies nearby.
