Woolly Place is a distinctive, newly renovated 19th‑century mill conversion set in about 1.66 acres, offering generous single‑storey living with a mezzanine study. The house combines traditional stone character and reclaimed fittings with high-performance energy systems — photovoltaic panels, solar thermal and a Tesla Powerwall — plus wet underfloor heating for efficient, comfortable year‑round living. Large open-plan living/dining spaces, a vaulted sitting room and conservatory give broad views to the Howgill Fells and easy garden access.
The grounds are a major asset: riverside gardens, private woodland with a stream and one‑rod fishing rights on the River Rawthey, productive vegetable beds, orchard and a bespoke greenhouse. Substantial ancillary buildings include a double garage with resin floor, a workshop, a large stone shed with oak cruck beams and additional garden outbuildings — useful for hobbies, storage or small‑scale agricultural use.
Practical points to note: the property lies in a quiet hamlet on the edge of Sedbergh, within the Yorkshire Dales National Park, so it suits buyers seeking rural peace but who want town amenities within walking distance. Services are mains‑connected with a shared septic tank; council tax sits in Band G. There is a medium flood risk in the area, and the riverside setting means buyers should consider insurance and any mitigation advice.
Overall this is a characterful, energy‑efficient riverside home for families or buyers wanting substantial private grounds and strong sustainability credentials. It offers immediate move‑in condition combined with long‑term garden and woodland potential, while the single‑storey layout plus mezzanine study will appeal to those preferring accessible living with flexible workspace.
