A characterful detached cottage located at the head of the picturesque village of Ravenstonedale. The property has been modernised by the current owner in recent years, with new kitchen, bathroom, internal rendering, underfloor heating on the ground floor and new double glazing throughout. The property is Grade II listed with the original building dating back to the 16th Century, and the original adjoining outbuildings were converted in 1859 into a Dame School, serving the local village and surrounding community. Over the years the building has served many purposes before becoming a settled home.

The accommodation comprises of a cosy living room with a wood burner, a kitchen/diner, two bedrooms and a modern bathroom. There is a third occasional room (the former Dame School) which could be used as a bedroom, hobby room, office, or what-ever purpose serves the new owners. Under this room is a store room that contains the oil fired boiler and is a great space to store wood for the burner and other outdoor items.

To the rear is a private garden, planted with mature plants and shrubs and with seating areas to enjoy the evening sun and a quaint balcony. You will also find a stone built storage shed.

Situated in Ravenstonedale, the cottage enjoys access to two highly regarded inns and a nursery school, with the Fat Lamb Country Inn less than a mile away.
