Description

Guide Price £275,000 - £300,000

Walden Barn is a beautifully renovated barn conversion, situated in the picturesque village of Carperby within the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Tucked away from the main road, the property enjoys a peaceful and private setting.

Carperby is a sought-after village, ideally positioned between Hawes and Leyburn, and is well known for its historic seven-stepped cross dating back to 1674.

Renovated in around 2006, the property benefits from oil-fired central heating and double glazing throughout. The accommodation is arranged in a popular upside-down layout, with two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a family bathroom on the ground floor. To the first floor is an impressive open-plan living and kitchen area, featuring vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, creating a bright and characterful space.

Externally, the property offers a private, low-maintenance flagged garden with gated access, providing off-road parking for one, or potentially two, vehicles.

Walden Barn presents an excellent opportunity as a first-time purchase, holiday home, or investment property. This property is chain free and is available immediately.
