Description
Ellershaw Farm is a most attractive rural property constructed in 1994 of traditional stone construction under a York stone roof. The property offers comfortable and spacious accommodation across two floors and benefits from having oil fired central heating, being fully double glazed and also having an attached holiday let, which currently benefits from an income of circa £10,000 per annum.
Ellershaw Farm is entered into via a useful utility room with separate cloakroom. This leads into the large, farmhouse style kitchen with ample space for a dining table. This dual aspect room with mullioned windows features a good range of wall and base units, integrated appliances including a dishwasher and fridge freezer, together with a Rangemaster cooker with gas hob. This leads through into the main reception hall with front and rear porches providing access to the front and back. There is a good-sized family living room also with dual aspect windows and a gas stove set within a stone fireplace surround. Usefully, there is a second sitting room with a multi fuel stove which could also be used as a dining room or play room if required.
To the first floor there are a total of four bedrooms, each enjoying an excellent view of the surrounding landscape. The principal bedroom benefits from an ensuite shower room with WC and basin. Also, on the landing is a most useful airing cupboard with shelving.
Adjoining the property is a one-bedroom holiday let which is successfully let with Yorkshire Cottages. The property has independent access with accommodation comprising an open plan living room with kitchen to the rear featuring a range of traditional painted wooden units complemented by a wooden worktop, Belfast style sink with an electric oven, hob and space for a fridge freezer.
To the first floor there is a large double bedroom with useful shelving and hanging rails together with an ensuite which is fully tiled with a shower cubicle, WC and a basin.
Externally the property is complemented by an attached garage providing excellent storage or additional parking with a useful tarmac yard providing excellent off-road parking. There is also a stable and the borehole treatment room. The boiler with the central heating system and hot water cylinder can be found in the garage. A five-bar gate leads into the fields beyond.
To the front is a paved garden with ample space for seating and potted plants. There is an area of lawn to the side of the property and the property is fully enclosed by dry stone walled boundaries.
Please note that the first part of the driveway is shared with the neighbouring bunk barn which leads through a five-bar gate into the parking area.
The Farmhouse is further complemented by 42 acres approx. of grassland. The land is mainly made up of rough grassing which extends up the dale, which benefits from an access track along it. It is noted that aneighbouring landowner does have a right of way up the track.
Adjacent to the property on the other side of the road is a small parcel of idyllic grassland which features a section of meandering stream leading to the River Skirfare and also includes fishing rights.
The land is classified as Grade 4 and 5 on the Agricultural Land Classification. It is also currently entered into a Higher Level Stewardship agreement, which runs until 2028. More details can be gained upon request.
