This wonderful 17th century, Grade II listed cottage was originally part of a cruck-built long house. Situated in the heart of this pretty market town.. Ground Floor:
Bathroom: Bath With Shower Over, Toilet. Gas central heating, gas, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Travel cot, highchair and stairgate.. Private parking for 2 cars. No smoking.. Nestled within the village, this historic cottage stands as one of the only two pairs of cruck-framed long houses that endure the test of time. These traditional abodes, characterized by arched strong beams, served as shelters for both families and livestock. A glimpse into the past is offered through the well-preserved features, from the enduring beams in the ceiling to the captivating fireplace in the entrance hallway.
Spanning two floors, this charming country cottage invites you into a warm embrace. The ground floor unfolds with an entrance hall leading to a cosy living room, complete with an electric fire nestled in a stone fireplace—an ideal sanctuary during winter. The living room seamlessly connects to the adjacent dining room, which, in turn, opens into a well-equipped kitchen. The kitchen exudes a welcoming atmosphere, boasting a spacious gas range cooker with a double oven and eight gas rings—perfect for crafting hearty, home-cooked meals. Convenience extends to a ground-floor shower room with a toilet.
Ascending to the first floor, the first bedroom reveals a double bed beneath a vaulted beamed ceiling, complemented by fitted wardrobes and drawers. The second bedroom showcases the original cruck beam, housing a second double bed, built-in wardrobes, and bedside cabinets. A family bathroom completes the upper level, featuring a bath with a shower over it. Adjacent to the parish church, Kings Head Cottage resonates with the chimes of Sunday bells. Stepping out, you find yourself just moments away from the town’s myriad shops, cafés, restaurants, and attractions. Pickering, a picturesque market town with a medieval castle, serves as an ideal launchpad for exploring the North York Moors and the nearby coastline.
Discover the charm of Pickering with its iconic steam train journeying through heather-clad landscapes to quaint villages and Whitby. The North York Moors, a haven for walkers, boasts numerous trails and abundant wildlife. Nearby, the food capital of Yorkshire, Malton, beckons with its market, award-winning restaurants, and cookery school. Castle Howard, a magnificent stately home, promises awe-inspiring moments.
