Pickhill Cottage is a stunning 6 bedroom family home located in a quiet yet convenient location in the village of Elslack, 2 miles from Skipton in North Yorkshire. The property has been lovingly restored, extended, and improved over the last 15 years and boasts a spacious plot tucked away behind the Tempest Arms pub. The house features a large tarmacadam driveway with plenty of parking and turning room, a stone built triple garage with car wash area, and an external staircase to an elevated terrace providing access to a large gymnasium/office area above the garage. The interior space is thoughtfully designed with a perfect blend of contemporary and traditional finishes, including a snug with wood burning stove, a fully fitted utility room, and a superb dining kitchen with bi-fold doors to the terrace area. The kitchen is modern with high-quality integrated appliances, including a Fisher & Paykel oven, triple dishwashers, and a John Lewis Fridge Freezer. The property also features a large split-level lounge with feature beams and a stone fireplace containing a wood burning stove, as well as a further reception room perfect for a kids' lounge or TV room. To the first floor, there are six bedrooms and four bathrooms, including a master bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and a luxurious ensuite bathroom. The whole plot, including the footprint of the house, extends to approximately 1.41 acres, with some timber stables and a large lawn beneath the terrace. The property is located in the village of Elslack, which is well known for its popular destination pub, The Tempest Arms, and is close to the Yorkshire/Lancashire border. Skipton, known as 'the gateway to the Dales,' is located 4 miles west of the property and offers a range of amenities, including Michelin-starred restaurants, coffeehouses, and traditional pubs. The area is also within easy commuting distance of many West Yorkshire and East Lancashire business centers, making it an ideal location for those looking for a peaceful countryside retreat with easy access to the city.
