Description

A most charming and spacious four-bedroom, two-bathroom barn conversion with an enclosed garden and detached double garage, occupying a peaceful position within the much sought-after village of Scriven, on the fringes of Knaresborough.

Rich in character and providing particularly generous accommodation, the property now offers an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to update and personalise the interior to their own taste. The accommodation opens into a spacious hallway with a staircase to the first floor and a ground-floor WC. The lounge is a comfortable reception room with exposed beams and a feature fireplace, leading through to a conservatory overlooking the garden. A substantial dining room/further reception room provides excellent space for entertaining and benefits from an abundance of natural light, together with further exposed beams.

The dining kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of units and integrated appliances, with ample space for informal dining and access to a separate utility room.

To the first floor, a generous and naturally lit landing leads to four good-sized bedrooms. The spacious principal bedroom includes extensive fitted wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom, while further bedrooms also benefit from useful built-in storage. A sizeable house bathroom completes the accommodation.

Outside, the property has a delightful enclosed garden, predominantly laid to lawn with mature trees, established shrubs and planted borders providing a particularly attractive and secluded setting. Paved seating areas offer space for outdoor dining, and there is also a garden shed. A detached double garage provides secure parking and valuable additional storage.

Scriven is a picturesque and highly regarded village on the northern fringes of Knaresborough, combining a peaceful semi-rural setting with convenient access to the town centre, railway station and excellent everyday amenities. The surrounding area offers attractive countryside walks, while Harrogate, York and the A1(M) are also within convenient reach.
