Four-bedroom detached home with large outbuildings and moor views on over an acre.
Over one acre plot with moorland views
Set on over an acre of historic farmland with sweeping views of the Yorkshire moors, The Plough Stables is a spacious four-bedroom detached house with strong rural character. The house was built in 1982 and has been upgraded with double glazing, an air-source heat pump (installed 2020), south-facing solar panels and an electric vehicle charging point — all helpful for running costs and eco credentials.
The property has generous indoor space (about 1,804 sq ft) arranged in a traditional layout: an L-shaped hallway, cosy living room with central stove, separate dining room with patio doors and a practical kitchen/utility. Upstairs are four good-sized bedrooms, two with en suites, plus a family bathroom. The plot’s outstanding features include a substantial Victorian-style greenhouse (around 20m), a sandstone barn split into garage and large workshop, stables used for storage, allotments, an orchard and a pond — great for gardeners, hobby farmers or anyone wanting workshop space.
Important practical points: broadband speeds are very slow and the area is flagged as very deprived, which may affect home working and services. Crime levels are above average and council tax is described as expensive. Some garden buildings and the greenhouse are a restoration project and will need time and investment. Tenure is currently unknown and buyers should confirm this and have the services and systems inspected.
This home will suit buyers seeking a rural family base or a lifestyle purchase with outbuilding potential — those who value space, privacy and self-sufficiency. It offers character and substantial scope for improvement rather than a turnkey city property; viewings are recommended for anyone wanting a countryside property with long-term potential.
