Description
Sparrowhawk Farm is a truly exceptional detached farmhouse, rich in charm, character and history, having been in the same family for over 70 years. Occupying a commanding and wonderfully secluded elevated position, the property sits within approximately 10 acres of grounds and formal landscaped gardens, featuring a breath-taking kitchen garden with entertaining areas, wildflower meadows and post-and-rail fenced paddocks, a large rear circular drive area providing parking for numerous vehicles and offering potential for a Oak framed carport subject to the usual planning consents, approached via a five bar gate, all enjoying breath-taking panoramic views across the Upper Nidderdale Valley.
Offering generous and versatile accommodation, it is an outstanding country home for family or multi-generational living. The impressive accommodation begins with a 13'1" × 33'6" sitting room, featuring solid wood flooring, extensive windows showcasing the Yorkshire Dales views, a fireplace with log-burning stove and sliding doors opening to a covered entrance/exit area. The adjoining lounge also features solid wood flooring and a fireplace. A boot room with storage, adjoining shed, plant room and utility provide excellent practical space, while a detached office outbuilding offers an ideal home-working environment. The spacious open-plan kitchen/dining room forms the heart of the home, with large windows and French doors opening onto the patio and gardens. The fitted kitchen features attractive tiling, high-quality units, a Belfast sink and a substantial solid-wood-topped breakfast island.
Upstairs, the remarkable 34'7" principal bedroom suite provides a superb retreat, with fitted storage, skylights, exposed ceiling beams, solid wood flooring, en-suite shower room and a freestanding bath, together with stunning countryside views. There are three further double bedrooms, one with a contemporary en-suite bathroom and another with fitted wardrobes, alongside a separate office, further bathroom and useful landing storage.
The grounds are a defining feature, combining low maintenance and wildlife-friendly gardens created by the owners – who are leading landscape designers. The grounds comprise formal terracing and lawns, wildflower meadows and paddock, areas of new woodland and a centre-piece 35m x 14m walled kitchen garden with areas for growing, entertaining and relaxation - all set against the spectacular backdrop of Upper Nidderdale. An extensive lighting scheme brings the gardens magically to life at night. This property represents a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional country home with approximately 10 acres, total privacy and truly breath-taking views.
