Description

The Old Barn is an attractive, detached barn conversion that is immaculately presented and fully double glazed. It offers spacious and light two bedroom accommodation which retains many character features throughout.

The property is entered into via a welcoming entrance hall with stairs leading up to the first floor. A feature stone arch leads into the living room which is open to the kitchen and has a multi fuel stove set within a stone surround and French doors leading out to the garden. There is also ample space for a dining table.

The kitchen features a good range of fitted wall and base units with integrated cooker, hob, fridge, freezer and a washing machine.

To the first floor is a galleried landing with bespoke book shelving and cupboards. There are two good sized double bedrooms which both enjoy a stunning view and each with fitted wardrobes. One bedroom has the benefit of an ensuite bathroom with WC and shower cubicle, with a separate basin. The modern house bathroom features a WC, basin, and a shower over the bath and usefully has a door leading to the second bedroom.

Externally the property is complemented by delightful gardens and grounds with a good-sized gravelled area to the rear from where the surroundings can be enjoyed. There is a useful covered area which provides access to the property and could be extended into if required. There is also a timber workshop and ample off road parking.

Overall, The Old Barn would make an excellent full time or second home in the Yorkshire Dales.
