Description

Greenside Barn is a superb detached stone barn, occupying a truly spectacular position on the edge of the sought-after village of Ravenstonedale.

Nestled at the foot of the magnificent Howgill Fells in the beautiful Eden Valley, Ravenstonedale is a charming and unspoilt Cumbrian village. Ravenstonedale benefits from a nursery school, two well-regarded public houses, and a welcoming community atmosphere. The market town of Kirkby Stephen is approximately seven miles away, which provides a wide range of amenities including a primary and secondary school, healthcare services, independent shops and cafés.

Greenside Barn presents an exciting development opportunity. Full planning permission has been granted for the conversion of the barn into a charming one-bedroom dwelling. Externally, the property enjoys outstanding rural surroundings with stunning views and direct access to an extensive network of walking routes. Provision has been made for a private garden and parking area, while consent has also been granted for the installation of a septic tank drainage system.

A hardcore track will be laid in accordance with the plans, Greenside Barn will have access over this shared track.

The planning application reference is E/12/114. The full planning application, along with the plans can be viewed on the Yorkshire Dales National Park website.
