A striking Grade II listed stone house dating to around 1650, set in approximately 0.6 acres of mature, landscaped grounds within the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The home offers three reception rooms, a bespoke kitchen by The Joinery Shop, a useful ground-floor study/potential bedroom and an attractive garden with a stone-flagged patio, mature trees and a period-style garage with potting room. Ample driveway parking complements the garage.
This is a spacious family home with five bedrooms (four doubles) and strong period character: exposed stone walls, inglenook with log-burning stove, cast-iron fireplaces and high ceilings in principal rooms. Many rooms enjoy far-reaching countryside views; the property is well placed for village amenities in Hawes and sits in a very low-crime, affluent rural area.
Practical considerations: the house is Grade II listed which will restrict alterations and may complicate some repairs or upgrades. Heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators, mains electricity but drainage is to a shared septic tank and water is from spring supply with a private UV filter. The EPC is E, walls are original stone with no assumed insulation and council tax is described as expensive. These factors mean buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance, potential listed-building consent and fuel costs.
For those seeking a period family home with extensive grounds and character, this property offers a rare setting; buyers wanting modern, low-maintenance running costs or major layout changes should check listing constraints and service arrangements before proceeding.
