A unique opportunity to complete the renovation and extension of a traditional cottage into a striking contemporary home with a large garden and up to five bedrooms, in a pretty Yorkshire Wolds village.

For those looking for a project or renovation, the sale of 1 New Row presents a unique opportunity to purchase a substantially extended cottage in a pretty Yorkshire Wolds village, within easy reach of Malton, Driffield and York.

Within the last 3 years a large two-storey extension has been added to the side of the property, which requires finishing. The outer structure is largely complete, aside from applying a coat of render to the exterior blockwork. New windows and doors are in situ, and the dining kitchen and two of the ‘bedrooms’ open onto the garden, although there is still a good level of flexibility to the final interior layout. Building control have made all necessary staged inspections to date, and the house is now watertight, and at a stage where it can be fitted out to a purchaser’s preferred specification.

On completion of the proposed plan, the accommodation would amount to approximately 1,400sq.ft (excluding a 4.5m x 4.5m roof terrace), comprising entrance hall, kitchen/dining room, shower room, two double bedrooms (one with en-suite) and a study or single bedroom. The first floor layout provides a lounge overlooking the rear garden and with access onto the roof terrace, two further double bedrooms and a house bathroom.

Externally there is a good-sized garden to the rear, which is mostly laid to lawn and there is the opportunity to create an off-street parking space at the rear.
