5 bed detached house for sale

Bouthwaite, Harrogate HG3

A fantastic opportunity to purchase this charming detached converted barn which provides spacious and flexible accommodation in a delightful, setting enjoying breathtaking views over the surrounding countryside within this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The area is designated as an sssi and Gouthwaite and recognised as a Nature Reserve with viewing points around the water.

The property boasts characterful accommodation with stone-flagged flooring and exposed wooden beams and is appointed to a high standard with a quality fitted kitchen and modern bathrooms. The accommodation has previously been used to provide bed-and-breakfast accommodation, and therefore offers potential buyers flexibility regarding how they could use the space in the future. The property currently provides a main house together with an attached annexe with bedroom, bathroom and living area / kitchen, plus a separate guest bedroom with separate entrance at the rear of the building. However, the house could also easily be adapted and used as a single large dwelling.

The accommodation is therefore ideally suited to those who would like to provide income through providing bed-and-breakfast accommodation, those who require annexe accommodation for family members, those who seek a large family house in a stunning position overlooking the surrounding countryside, or simply those who wish to work from home and who require a separate access.

The property is located in Upper Nidderdale within a small hamlet adjacent to the village of Ramsgill, home to the well-regarded Yorke Arms and just a few miles from the popular town of Pateley Bridge.
