Lavender Cottage, Masham...

Silver Street runs into the market place from the Ripon road and was historically an avenue of small shops with living quarters above, often on three stories in grand Georgian and later Victorian houses. These properties were interspersed with smaller dwellings, closing the frontage, to form stylish terraces. Lavender Cottage is one of these well proportioned, stone built, terraced houses just off the edge of the market place.

Entry is to a hallway with polished wood floor. Off to the left is a cosy lounge with stone-worked fireplace, flagged hearth and antique pine surround, exposed beam ceiling and polished wood floor. To the right is a dining room, again with polished wood floor, and an adjoining, well-fitted, stylish kitchen with tiled floor.

A stairway rises from the hallway to a landing with balustrade that serves a double bedroom, a twin bedroom and a half-panelled bathroom with bath, washbasin and toilet. Also at the top of the stairway is an external door leading to a small but quaint gravelled yard, a private place to sit and relax.

A charming cottage brought into the modern era with style and comfort giving the convenience of modern life in a traditional atmosphere. The use of pine furniture and fittings coupled with soft, tonal colours give light and warmth to the rooms and provide cosy accommodation to a high standard.
