GENERAL REMARKS
Town End Cottage is a charming period attached family
home built of stone, set under a pitched York slate roof.
Over recent years an extensive programme of upgrading
has been undertaken with the construction of a substantial
rear snug and garden room, as well as a recently installed
quality kitchen with numerous appliances. The layout is
arranged over two storeys and the ground floor also
includes an open plan living room split into sitting and
dining areas as well as a downstairs WC. To the upper
storey are four good sized bedrooms as well as en-suite
facilities and the house bathroom. Mains water, electricity
and drainage are installed with oil-fired central heating
and some double-glazing. A particular feature of the
property are the substantial child-friendly gardens which
are mainly lawned and levelled with sitting out areas, a
sizable garden shed and out-built double garage with
electric up and over door and vehicular access via
electrically operated gates.
The property sits on the rural fringe of Malham and has
stunning views over the surrounding countryside.
Malham is unquestionably one of the "jewels in the crown"
of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, a small unspoilt and
picturesque village set amidst dramatic limestone
landscape features, the most dominant of which is the
Cove. The village is naturally a haven for those who enjoy
the countryside and wish to take advantage of the many
varied walks that are available. It is also a very appealing
environment for the residents, a choice of cafés and public
houses with restaurant facilities. There is also a wellregarded primary school at nearby Kirkby Malham.
Malhamdale is in the catchment area of the grammar
schools in Skipton and there is also a comprehensive
school in nearby Settle. The market towns of Settle and
Skipton are within some seven and eleven miles
respectively and offer a wide range of amenities. The
railway station at Skipton has services to Leeds, Bradford
and London.
