Here's our Top Ten reasons to love 2 Bell Busk:

1. Incredibly sweet - a stone and slate former mill worker's cottage; mid terrace, it's one of 12 built in two parallel rows creating an attractive open plan courtyard in between. Some period features remain with sash windows, a built-in cupboard in the living area, arched recess, window and door reveals.

2. Now requiring a little TLC - providing scope for general cosmetic upgrading.

3. Set over three floors - with an approximate gross internal area of 629 sq ft (58.4 sq m) the accommodation is bigger than you think at first glance. There is an open plan living kitchen - the kitchen is fitted with base and wall units, electric oven and hob, integral refrigerator and a washing machine. To the first floor is a bedroom, as well as a three piece shower room. Off the landing, a staircase leads to the second floor where you'll find bedroom 2, being open to the apex with skylight window, undereaves storage and built-in cupboard.

4. Great to lock up and leave - there's no garden, however low upkeep leaves more time to get out and enjoy the things you like to do.

5. Outside space - in a row of four across the road, a small former privy.

6. It's like turning back the clock - escape from the hustle and bustle of modern life - Bell Busk is a quiet rural hamlet located at the southern end of Malhamdale, surrounded by beautifully scenic countryside close to where the River Aire meets Otterburn Beck.

7. Local facilities - Hellifield (5 miles) has a shop, doctors' surgery, post office, pub, primary school and two churches and at attractive Long Preston, known as the 'Gateway to the Dales' (6.4 miles) there's a primary school, post office, shop, village hall and pubs.

8. Nearby market towns - a larger selection of facilities can be found in Skipton (7.9 miles) and Settle (10.5 miles).

9. Fond of fresh air? The property is close to The Yorkshire Dales and, along with the Lake District National Park and the nearby Forest of Bowland National Landscape (formerly known as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) it's the ideal base for exploring all that the area has to offer; The Three Peaks, The Pennine Way, the picturesque village of Malham (4.8 miles), Malham Tarn and Cove to name but a few. Another worthy destination is the Coniston Cold Hotel, Country Estate and Spa, set in 1400 acres with its own lake and offering award-winning dining, excellent conference and meeting facilities, as well as a wide range of activities including shooting, off-road driving, archery and fishing.

10.
