Council Tax Band F (expensive) and rural, hamlet location
Set in an unspoilt Nidderdale setting, Bobbin Mill Cottage combines period charm with recent sympathetic renovation. The main cottage offers four bedrooms, two reception rooms and a superb dining kitchen with a gas-fired Aga, creating a comfortable family home with well-proportioned living spaces. Double glazing and gas central heating have been installed to modernise the fabric while retaining original stone character.
A detached two-bedroom annexe sits to the east of the main house and is well suited for dependent relatives, long-stay guests or income use. A substantial outbuilding (circa 525 sq ft) with electricity and lighting provides clear development potential subject to planning — an appealing option for conversion, home office or studio, though any change would require consent.
The property occupies just over 0.75 acres of landscaped grounds with lawns, mature woodland and natural water features. Off-street parking and rural privacy are major strengths; the hamlet location provides very low crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband while still being within easy reach of Pateley Bridge and wider commercial centres.
Buyers should note practical considerations: drainage is to a shared septic tank, council tax is at the upper band F, and the original stone walls are assumed uninsulated which may present future insulation or energy-improvement work. The setting and outbuilding create clear potential, but planning and upgrading costs should be factored into any purchase decision.
