A substantial stone-built property set directly on the village green in West Burton, offering a rare mix of living space and commercial workshop accommodation in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The main house provides generous rooms across multiple floors—three to four bedrooms and a large reception footprint—while attached workshops and outbuildings have been used as a pottery and studio for many years. The whole site sits on an extensive plot of about 0.4 acres and extends to approximately 3,175 sqft, making it well suited to a continuing arts use, combined live/work occupancy or holiday-let conversion (subject to consents).
The property retains strong period character—stone masonry, sash-style windows and a slate roof—yet requires modernisation throughout. Services include an air-source heat pump and electric heating, double glazing fitted before 2002, and mains electricity; broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is average. There is a medium flood risk and council tax is above average, factors that buyers should factor into any refurbishment budget and insurance costs.
Three separate workshop/outbuilding spaces give flexible income or workspace potential, with scope to create annex accommodation or separate holiday units subject to planning. The location on the village green, very low local crime and proximity to a Good primary school and village amenities add strong lifestyle appeal. Overall this is a spacious, versatile character property with clear upside for someone prepared to invest in renovation and obtain any necessary consents.
