Location


Positioned on historic Cross Green, which is a conservation area, this Grade ii-listed former farmhouse dates back to circa 1670, placing it at the heart of one of Otley’s earliest areas of settlement. At that time, Cross Green lay on the rural fringe of the town, characterised by smallholdings, orchards and agricultural plots, making it the ideal setting for a working farmhouse. The property would originally have formed part of this semi-rural landscape, long before Otley expanded around it. Today, it stands as a rare surviving piece of the town’s agricultural past, offering a direct connection to over 350 years of local history while now enjoying a central and highly convenient position within this thriving market town.

Otley itself is a highly desirable market town, known for its strong sense of community and excellent quality of life. Nestled in the Wharfe Valley and surrounded by beautiful countryside, it offers the perfect blend of rural charm and everyday convenience. The town centre provides a wide range of independent shops, cafes, traditional pubs and restaurants, alongside well-regarded schools and regular markets. For those needing to travel further afield, Otley is well connected to Leeds, Bradford and Harrogate, making it an ideal location for commuters who want to enjoy a more relaxed pace of life without sacrificing accessibility
