Located in the charming village of Ruswarp in North Yorkshire, this delightful former chapel has ample space for a family or group of friends. With a private garden and indoor spa, this home is the perfect place to relax in comfort. The small village of Ruswarp is a quaint village dotted with small shops, tearooms, and grocery stores. Children will love riding the miniature steam train here and boating on the River Esk. There’s also an award-winning butcher and bakery, so be sure to stock up on high-quality meat, cheeses, and bread. Ruswarp also possesses some excellent hiking trails and one that shouldn’t be missed is the 1.5-mile walk between Ruswarp and Whitby. For a day at the beach, make the 2-mile drive to Whitby Beach. After a swim, ride the lift up the cliff and enjoy spectacular views of the North Sea.
A great deal of time and attention has been poured into making this a comfortable home, and those with a taste for contemporary design will like the modern furnishings, ambient lighting, and striking mirrors on the walls. On the ground floor, you’ll find a handy boot and shoe room that leads through to a cool, sleek kitchen kitted out with modern appliances and a granite-topped breakfast bar. From here, a spiral staircase sweeps up the open-plan living area. Chapel windows, a working organ, and swathes of natural light create a tranquil ambience while leather sofas, bookcases, and feature clocks create a sense of elegant splendour. There’s a wood burner here too, to keep things toasty on cooler nights. Overlooking the lounge is an eight-seater dining table leading off to a snug room where children can kick back with a film on the Smart TV. A neat bedroom featuring a king-size bed is also on this floor. The spiral staircase continues up to a reading room and pristine family bathroom featuring a free-standing bath and shower while, on the top floor, you’ll find the remaining three bedrooms. All are light and airy and feature a mix of twin and super-king beds. The master suite also has its own bathroom with a shower. The real bonus lies on the ground floor where an arched door leads through to a spa room. Here you can spend time relaxing in the Jacuzzi or unwinding in the sauna. Afterwards, cool off in the rainfall shower or loll on a lounger.
While there is much to enjoy inside, the garden is also a peaceful spot. Enjoy a cool drink on the manicured lawn or dine al fresco at the covered table.
