A traditional Dales Farmhouse with large stone barn with the benefit of planning consent for residential conversion, and approx. 4.90 acres of agricultural land, set within the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
Nestled in the picturesque landscape of the Yorkshire Dales National Park this traditional Dales Farmhouse offers an excellent opportunity with scope and potential to create a perfect family home or smallholding. The property itself is a traditional stone farmhouse with many original features and rustic charm. Adjacent to the farmhouse is a large detached stone barn with planning consent in place for conversion to three bedroom residential accommodation. The land surrounding extends to approx. 4.90 acres.
With access leading from the A683 into the yard area, the property comprises a detached stone 3 bedroom farmhouse property set on the edge of the yard. Having been a much-loved family home for many years the property offers a blank canvas for somebody to make their own. Internally the accommodation provides for generous living spaces with two reception rooms and a kitchen dining space to the ground floor and 3 bedrooms to the first floor together with a house bathroom and box room. The property also provides plenty of storage throughout.
Set within the yard area is a large detached stone barn with the benefit of planning consent under planning reference S/03/715. The planning provides for the conversion of the stone barn into a three bedroom single dwelling house (subject to a local occupancy condition) or short term holiday let, together with two garages and the installation of associated drainage. This consent is an extant permission with a material start having been made. This is ideal for those looking to move with family or those looking to generate an income from visitors of the local surroundings.
Beyond the house is approximately 4.90 acres (1.98 hectares) of agricultural land which is accessed from the yard area. This is ideal for those looking for a lifestyle purchase who want to benefit from having plenty of space for family and animals alike.
