An exciting opportunity to acquire a range of traditional stone barns with planning permission for conversion to create two separate dwellings with private parking and garden areas. Alternatively, the barns would combine to form a larger singe dwelling.

Cowside Barns enjoy a rural position within the Yorkshire Dales National Park and can be accessed directly off Henside Lane.

There are excellent transport links by both rail and road connecting the town to the larger local business centres.

Description

These traditional stone buildings are part of a larger group of buildings being formerly Cowside Farm and are the final remaining buildings to be developed. The barns benefit from private parking and garden areas to the front of the property creating well executed plots.

The single storey section of the buildings has recently been re roofed incorporating three modern Velux rooflights and solar panels.
