A nicely extended, stone-built semi-detached cottage located in a pretty, National Park village, together with large gardens & ample off-street parking.

Melrose Cottage is an attractive semi-detached cottage, constructed of limestone walls beneath a slate roof. The property is understood to date from around 1850, when it formed part of the Newburgh Priory Estate, and served as a schoolmaster’s house. The property has been extended to the side and rear, its layout reconfigured over the years, now offering three-bedroom accommodation of almost 1,250sq.ft.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and briefly comprises entrance hall, a double reception room with log burner, kitchen, breakfast room, utility room, side lobby and guest cloakroom. At first floor level there are three bedrooms, the master has an en-suite shower room, and there is a further house shower room.

Melrose Cottage enjoys a pleasant, south-facing position, set within the boundaries of the North York Moors National Park and some rooms enjoy views of the ruins of Byland Abbey. The overall plot amounts to approximately 0.25 acres, made up of attractive gardens and driveway parking. There is further vehicle access from Wass Bank Road, via a right of way.

The village of Wass lies on the southern boundary of the North York Moors National Park and is some 6 miles south of the nearby Georgian market town of Helmsley and 2 miles west of the village of Ampleforth. The village benefits from a popular pub, The Stapylton Arms, and has a well supported village hall. Within nearby Ampleforth there is a primary school, village shop and post office and a doctor’s surgery.
