The living room features a charming cast-iron multi-fuel stove, providing a cosy focal point and an economical additional source of heat. The ground floor has been thoughtfully reconfigured to create an impressive open-plan dining kitchen and family space, perfect for entertaining and everyday family life. The kitchen area incorporates a range of appliances and opens directly towards the rear garden, making the most of the property's attractive setting.

The accommodation briefly comprises a welcoming reception hallway, re-fitted modern cloakroom/WC, spacious living room with cast-iron multi-fuel stove, a superb open-plan dining kitchen and family area which opens into the rear garden and access to a recently reconfigured utility and boot room (being the former garage).

Externally, the property occupies a desirable plot in this popular cul-de-sac, with a newly laid resin double driveway providing ample off-road parking. The rear garden enjoys an open aspect, woodland views and a particularly attractive outlook towards Skelton’s wildlife pond. Its peaceful surroundings and afternoon and evening sunshine create a wonderful setting for outdoor dining, relaxing or simply enjoying the natural environment.

The location is particularly appealing for those who enjoy walking and the outdoors, with the Cleveland Way and numerous local walking routes close by. Skelton retains its village identity while offering a range of everyday amenities, including High Street shops, a Co-op supermarket, doctors’ and dentists’ surgeries and primary schooling. Further retail facilities, including Asda, Aldi and B&M, are available nearby, with a wider choice of amenities in Saltburn and Guisborough.
