Old Vicarage is a beautiful Victorian detached home in the sought-after village of Muker in Swaledale.
Muker is located on the Coast-to-Coast route and the Pennine Way, with a good community spirit. It has a village shop & tearoom, public house, excellent art gallery & gift shop, the famous Swaledale Wool Shop and is a tourist hotspot throughout the year. The village has a popular campsite, several holiday cottages, and B&B's which all open throughout the year.
The property has been lovingly updated over the last 15 years but still retains many of its original features such as high coved ceilings, original fireplaces, and servant bells. It has had all externally walls internally insulated and solar panels added to be more environmentally friendly. The property is over 4 floors, offers an abundance of storage, and is an exceptional entertaining space.
On entering this spacious home, you instantly get a warm welcoming feeling from the wide, oak floored entrance. Leading off from this are the living room, drawing room, dining room, kitchen diner, and utility. The 3 reception rooms have original fireplaces with working fires. The kitchen diner, hall, and utility all benefit from underfloor heating.
The utility at the rear of the property has the cellar access which leads to a fantastic authentic storage space with 3 separate areas - pantry, wine cellar, and workshop.
The first floor is reached via a grand staircase opening to a large landing. Here you will find 4 double bedrooms, 2 with en-suite and a house shower room. All rooms benefit from unobstructed views to open countryside.
The second floor was formally the servant quarters and so there are 4 further rooms to be utilised as bedrooms, workspace, or storage. The largest of the 4 has been used as a fitness space and the current vendors fitted a shower, hand basin and WC.
Externally, there are spacious grounds; lawn with mature trees and pond, raised vegetable patch, established fruit bushes and trees, and 4 storage stone-built sheds to the rear.
In addition, there is ample gravel parking to the front, side, and rear of the property with the bonus of an EV charging point.
Old Vicarage is a phenomenal property, unique in its condition and presentation and will continue to be a fabulous home.
