Including the unusual advantage of a large stone built 50ft out-building, suitable for a variety of storage/workshop uses and perhaps having potential for conversion subject to obtaining any necessary permission, this very appealing three bedroom end terraced barn conversion enjoys an exclusive residential setting forming part of the original grounds of the magnificent Gargrave House whilst also benefiting from extensive private gated parking for numerous vehicles and a delightful rear garden, peacefully backing onto a shallow beck/watercourse providing an idyllic setting.

Predominantly constructed in natural stone and including a range of attractive internal character features, this very appealing property offers considerable further potential with the large out-building, a former piggery, perhaps being of attraction to a classic car collector or indeed anyone requiring extensive secure garaging and/or workshop facilities to suit their business or hobby requirements.

The property is ideally situated within an exclusive courtyard complex incorporating a range of other individual converted farm buildings, close to open countryside on the rural edge of Gargrave yet still within easy walking distance of the wide range of amenities on offer within this sought after village.

A reception hallway, a living room with open fire set within a superb inglenook style surround, a very spacious dining room, a breakfast kitchen with gas fired Aga, a first floor landing leading to three well planned bedrooms and a spacious house bathroom equipped with four piece suite. Two of the bedrooms enjoy views view over the delightful beck and towards the grounds of Gargrave House beyond. As previously described, the property benefits from extensive private gated parking for numerous vehicles which in turn leads to the large separate out-building measuring circa 50' x 27' to the main area with a number of bays leading off and incorporating stone built walls together with an aluminium roof, light, power and a remote controlled single garage style access door.

On the route of the River Aire and the Leeds/Liverpool canal, the popular and sought after village of Gargrave is surrounded by beautiful open countryside and is only circa four miles away from the historic market town of Skipton. The village offers a variety of everyday shops and other amenities including a Cooperative Food grocery store, a village hall, a well regarded primary school and nursery, a church, a railway station and a good selection of venues to eat and drink. The village is blessed with many delightful walks including scenic level routes along both the river and the canal towpath.
