Kelfield Road, Riccall, YO19

Charming 1800s Cottage with Character & Modern Comfort in Picturesque Riccall.

Tucked away in the sought-after village of Riccall, this beautifully preserved 19th-century cottage effortlessly combines period charm with contemporary living.

Originally a classic “two up, two down”, the home has been thoughtfully extended and updated over time—retaining original features like a historic well, uniquely showcased within the downstairs W/C.

Step inside through a welcoming entrance hall that leads to a cosy dining room, complete with a charming stove fireplace. From there, a generous lounge with a log burner provides the perfect setting for relaxing evenings. The galley-style kitchen offers ample storage and practicality, complemented by a separate utility room. At the rear, a bright and airy conservatory opens out onto a stunning, landscaped garden—an ideal space for morning coffee or unwinding in the evening sun.

Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms—two with built-in wardrobes—and a well-appointed family bathroom featuring both a bath and a separate shower, offering flexibility for modern lifestyles.

Outside, the property boasts a large plot with off-street parking, a lawned garden rich with mature trees, vibrant shrubs, and beautiful planting—your own private oasis. A detached garage with an adjoining workshop provides excellent storage or creative space, while the generous side access offers exciting potential for future extensions (subject to planning).
