About 218.76 acres of productive meadow, permanent pasture and amenity woodland sit in a single ring‑fenced holding with long, elevated views over Wensleydale. The farm combines traditional stone-built buildings and modern livestock housing, offering immediate agricultural use and clear scope for alternative uses subject to planning consent. The land and buildings are offered freehold as a whole.
The principal cottage is a stone three-bedroom property that requires full modernisation; heating is oil‑fired with boiler and radiators and the walls are likely uninsulated. Many of the traditional outbuildings and larger barns appear in need of repair or refurbishment, presenting both cost and opportunity for conversion or redevelopment (consents required).
This is a rural, remote setting within the Yorkshire Dales National Park with excellent mobile signal but slow broadband and limited nearby services. The holding suits purchasers seeking a working livestock farm, equestrian enterprise or an investment/development project with significant scale, strong scenic amenity and long-term potential.
Material considerations: renovation and repairs will be needed across the residential and agricultural buildings; any change of use or redevelopment will require planning and listed/building-consent checks. The property is sold as a whole and is most appropriate for a buyer able to manage a large, remote estate and its associated running and upgrade costs.
