Hempholme, YO25 8NB

For those seeking a country life, Manor Farm is a must-see property.  Extending to a minimum of approximately 2.3 acres in total, it is ideal for anyone with equestrian or hobby farming interests.  Potential for business use also exists courtesy of a range of buildings, including a large two-story brick and tile barn that has previously had full planning approval for conversion into holiday accommodation.  The recently extended house enjoys a south-facing aspect from all the principal rooms, looking onto the garden and across to the grass paddock and fields beyond.  

LOCATION
