Summary - COLDBECK HOUSE RAVENSTONEDALE KIRKBY STEPHEN CA17 4LW
7 bed 5 bath Link Detached House
Spacious family home with conversion potential and scenic national-park setting.
Approximately 1.68 acre grounds with lawn, woodland and gated driveway
A grand Georgian manor updated for modern living yet retaining period grandeur, Coldbeck House sits in circa 1.68 acres on the edge of Ravenstonedale within the Yorkshire Dales National Park. High ceilings, large windows and generously proportioned rooms across four floors create an airy family home with excellent entertaining space, including three reception rooms and a superb dining kitchen that opens onto the garden.
The house offers seven double bedrooms and five bathrooms, with three en suites on the principal floor and two further bedrooms on the top floor. Cellars have been tanked and improved, providing plentiful storage or scope for conversion. Externally there is a double garage, ample parking from a gated driveway, extensive lawned gardens, a woodland fringe and a low-maintenance terrace featuring a mill race.
Key potential: the walled garden previously had planning for a three-bedroom dwelling (permission lapsed) and could be available by separate negotiation — an opportunity for extra accommodation or a building plot, subject to consents. The property has been renovated recently with a new kitchen and upgraded bathrooms, but some original stone walls likely lack modern insulation and the main heating is oil-fired boiler and radiators.
Notable practical points: the house lies in a remote hamlet setting with excellent mobile and broadband, average local crime levels, but a medium flood risk on records and comparatively high council tax. This is a spacious, characterful country house suited to families seeking rural living, those wanting flexible space, or buyers able to manage period maintenance and services.
