Yorkshire cottage with fishing and secret riverside garden
This charming cottage in a Yorkshire village has a secret riverside garden and fishing rights on the River Swale

Riverside Cottage is a wonderful four bedroom property believed to date from 1725 when two cottages were combined to make the current house.
The cottage is now the perfect size for a family and benefits from many good period features including open fireplaces, panelled doors, timber floors, exposed beams and boarded ceilings. There are four reception rooms and four bedrooms upstairs as well as a family bathroom.

Outside to the front of the house is a very pretty cottage garden surrounded by stone walls and mature shrubbery beds. To the north is an orchard with productive apple, pear and cherry trees and to the west steps lead down to a long, flat riverside garden, which is ideal for al fresco dining and fishing, and enjoys 180° views up, down and across the river - ideal for observing the wildlife on the River Swale.
Riverside Cottage is located at the very western edge of Brompton-on-Swale which lies just west off the A1. The village offers pubs, a primary school, church and a village shop as well as a lively community hall.
The guide price is £595,000. For further information please contact Jackson-Stops & Staff on 01325 489948.
