Walton House is a spacious, characterful house set in the sought after village of Askrigg in Upper Wensleydale.
Askrigg is a picturesque village with its ancient market cross, notable church and cobbled central "green". It has a primary school, good general store, cafe, delicatessen, gift shop as well as 3 good pubs, a number of B&B's and an excellent community life. It is famous for its Herriot connections, being the village where the series All Creatures Great & Small was filmed and recently home to a new and upcoming Netflix film, Highwire.
The house is a typical Georgian property and boasts a wealth of original character features including high ceilings, large windows and beautiful turned staircase. Walton House is believed to have been a pub, 'The Station Inn' and has the original beer cellar.
The property is in good order and benefits from oil fired central heating and double glazing throughout. The property has been well maintained by the current owners, who have lived here for over 40 years.
The accommodation is spacious, on the ground floor is a large living room, modern family kitchen diner, utility room and cloakroom to the rear. Upstairs are three, generous bedrooms and house bathroom. There is large loft space which could be converted (subject to planning permissions) if required.
Externally, to the front of the property, there is a stone flagged parking space for 2 vehicles. Access to the rear of the property is via the gravelled driveway to the side of the house. This leads to the rear garage, which provides further parking. This driveway is also access for the neighbouring properties.
