The Butts, Brompton By Sawdon

 

Full Description:

 An idyllically situated village property, Malpas Cottage is one of only a handful of properties situated on The Butts, and enjoys a quintessentially charming village outlook across the village green, water meadows and Brompton Beck which hugs the northern edge of the Butts, fed from Brompton Lake to the north. The property is set in extensive mature grounds, looking west over open farmland and with an attractive garden combining lawn and well stocked flower beds with a productive vegetable and soft fruit garden, ideal for those purchasers keen for a slice of the ‘good life’.

Built in the 1960’s Malpas Cottage provides a good range of modern accommodation, well presented throughout with stylish kitchen and bathroom fittings. In total the accommodation amounts to over 1,500 ft2, along with an exceptionally large adjoining garage, which could be utilised to enlarge the existing accommodation if required, subject to all necessary planning consents.

In brief the accommodation comprises: entrance hall, cloakroom, stylish kitchen with granite worktops and integrated appliances, dining area opening out into the sitting room with gas fire and west facing conservatory opening out onto the flagged terrace at the rear of the property. On the First Floor: Four double bedrooms including Master Suite with Juliet balcony and a recently fitted en-suite shower room and a further house bathroom with separate shower.  There is an exceptionally large loft space, fully boarded out and provides a great level of storage, or further accommodation if necessary. The property is double glazed throughout and scores well on both energy efficiency and environmental impact.

Outside the property stands in large and attractive landscaped grounds, combining a formal lawned garden with well stocked borders, a small orchard with a number of apple and plum trees and a productive vegetable garden. There is a large integral garage with workshop and fitted units. To the rear are pleasant open views across farmland and countryside, looking west along the Vale of Pickering.

Brompton is an unspoilt, rural village of mainly stone and pantile cottages, lying some nine miles east of Pickering and eight miles west of Scarborough.  The village is particularly well served with a highly regarded butcher with village shop and church. There is also a highly regarded Primary School located within the village. The Brompton Beck rises at the southern edge of the village and makes a charming pastoral scene.  Much of the village lies within a Conservation Area and is characterised by pretty period cottages, the historic All Saints Church and Brompton Lake which is well stocked with wild brown trout and where there is abundant wildlife to be found.
