SITUATION
Aysgarth 3 miles. Hawes 7 miles. Leyburn 10 miles. Bedale 20
miles. Northallerton 28 miles. Leeds Bradford and Newcastle
Airports are both approximately a 90 minute drive.
Thornton Rust is a quiet Dales village situated just a short drive
from the well-known village of Aysgarth which has a good range
of facilities including garage with convenience store, 2 public
houses, tearooms and a doctors surgery. Aysgarth is also famous
for the Aysgarth Falls which attract thousands of people each
year.
The property is therefore ideally placed close to local amenities
and within reasonable commuting distance to the larger market
towns. It is also well positioned for outdoor pursuits including
walking, cycling and horse riding along country lanes and
bridleways.
DESCRIPTION
The Old Post Office is an attractive double fronted, stone built,
period property in the centre of Thornton Rust. The property has
been beautifully maintained and retains many original character
features including panelling and fireplaces whilst also offering
spacious and flexible living accommodation.
The property is entered via a welcoming entrance lobby which
leads to the hall via an attractive glazed door. The lobby also leads
to the kitchen which has quality fitted oak wall and base units
complemented by composite marble worktops. There are
integrated appliances including double oven, ceramic hob,
dishwasher and fridge freezer as well as space for a dining table in
the centre. A door leads through into the useful utility room
which has further units, plumbing for a washing machine and
original stone shelving.
Also on the ground floor is a living room with an impressive open
fire set within cast iron surround and a snug, which could be used
as a dining room, with an imposing inglenook fireplace with log
burning stove that makes a brilliant space for entertaining.
To the rear of the property is a garden room with double doors
that lead out on to the patio and to the sitting room which forms
part of the former cart house. This room has an inglenook
fireplace and log burning stove together with stairs leading up to
the former hay loft and double bedroom. This could allow the
flexibility for a holiday cottage or ancillary guest accommodation
as there is also a shower room meaning it could be self-contained.
To the first floor are three further double bedrooms and a
generous family bathroom with freestanding bath and shower
cubicle.
Externally the property is complemented by pretty front gardens
enclosed by cast iron railings, and a private rear garden with patio,
lawn and a range of flower borders which make it a lovely space
for an enthusiastic gardener and enjoying the fantastic views.
The Old Post Office would make a brilliant family home, second home or holiday let in a popular part of the Yorkshire Dales
National Park.
