SSTC - NO FURTHER VIEWINGS

A rare and exciting opportunity to buy a well presented, extended two bedroomed semi-detached cottage, with origins dating back to 1790 and enjoying an enviable, elevated position on a residential back lane within this highly sought after village where properties rarely come
to the open market and briefly comprises an entrance hall with useful boot room area leading to a modern and extended breakfast kitchen with integrated appliances and benefitting from dual aspect as well as large skylight windows which flood the room with natural light. An inner hallway with two storage cupboards, one making a great study area, this leads into a charming dual aspect sitting room with wood burner and exposed beams and the ground floor accommodation is completed by a recently fitted contemporary bathroom.

The first floor landing enjoys elevated rooftop views across the village with rural glimpses and leads off into two bedrooms, the largest of which benefitting from built-in wardrobes.

Externally parking is “on street” and the delightful enclosed walled garden for the cottage provides a beautiful and tranquil low maintenance space enjoying plenty of sunshine during the summer months.

The Cottage occupies a lovely position in the heart of this sought after village, close to the historic village green with its maypole. Aldborough is an ancient monument and in Roman times was the civic capital of northern Britain. Now it is a peaceful, picturesque village with a thriving community spirit, with a beautiful church where the Northern Aldborough Music Festival is held every year. It is well placed for easy access to a good range of facilities in Boroughbridge, about a mile to the north west. More extensive facilities are available in the surrounding cities and towns of Ripon, York and Harrogate. In addition, access to the A1(M) is nearby and provides connections to the national
motorway network. Extensive bus services link Aldborough to neighbouring towns and villages.

The Cottage is available with no onward chain.

Please note there is a flying freehold above the bathroom.

The next steps...

Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
