Upper Esholt Farm, Chapel Lane, Esholt, West Yorkshire, BD17

This delightful three-bedroom Grade II Listed cottage is part of an exquisite barn conversion in the highly desirable Yorkshire conservation area of Esholt. Brimming with character, it showcases many original features including exposed beams and stripped floorboards. Overflowing with style, this exceptional property presents a rare opportunity, making an early viewing strongly recommended.

Stables Cottage is a unique and characterful three-bedroom home, nestled within this idyllic conservation area. Forming part of an impressive Grade II listed barn conversion, the property has been thoughtfully renovated and improved over the years to an excellent standard, including the installation of a stylish new bathroom in more recent times. The cottage retains a wealth of original features, beautifully blending period charm with modern comfort.

Planned over two floors, the accommodation comprises on the ground floor an open-plan kitchen and dining area, fitted with solid pine units and worktops, a Belfast sink, and floor-to-ceiling larder cupboards providing excellent storage, alongside a convenient W.C. At the rear, a beautifully presented reception space features a wood-burning stove, exposed character beams, spotlighting, stripped wooden flooring, and elegant French doors with flanking windows that open onto the rear garden.

On the first floor, an open staircase with a glass panel leads from the kitchen to the landing, which provides loft access via a drop-down ladder and showcases the stainless steel flue from the wood-burning stove below. The first floor houses three bedrooms, including a master with fitted wardrobes and a useful storage cupboard, and a family bathroom fitted with a modern three-piece suite and shower over the bath. High ceilings, exposed beams, and a rear-facing Velux window enhance the sense of space and light throughout.

To the front, the property offers off-street parking for two vehicles, an EV charger, and a designated space ideal for a shed or workshop. The rear garden is a charming, cottage-style space, peaceful and quiet throughout the year, featuring a circular paved patio, steps leading to a raised patio area, mature planting beds, multiple seating areas, and a dry-stone wall adding character and charm - perfect for enjoying the Spring and Summer months.

Despite its tranquillity, Stables Cottage is conveniently located close to a range of amenities, restaurants, and shops, while still providing easy access to the nearby towns of Otley, Ilkley, and Guiseley, offering the perfect balance of convenience and peace.

The property is delightfully situated within the beautiful conservation area of Esholt. The village is close to open countryside and walks, yet also within easy reach of Leeds Liverpool Canal connecting to the nearby towns of Shipley and Saltaire. Esholt village is a much sought after location which has a public house nearby. The location is also with commuting distance of many West Yorkshire business centres including Leeds and Bradford city centres.
