Description

Dowgill Farm is a striking stone-built farmhouse, privately situated with far-reaching views over the valley. This historic property, once part of the Fountain Abbey Estate, dates back to around 1679, although the western section of the house is believed to predate this and was originally built as a chapel for the local community. Over the years, the property has undergone a comprehensive restoration that has carefully preserved its period features while enhancing it for modern living.

The farmhouse is complemented by a three bedroom annexe to the east and a spacious barn conversion that enjoys stunning views across the neighbouring dale. The property sits on a plot of approximately 12 acres, including beautifully landscaped gardens, paddocks, and woodland. It also features several outbuildings, one currently houses a self-contained apartment and workshop, offering versatile possibilities.

The main house is wonderfully proportioned, with four large reception rooms and an open-plan kitchen/breakfast room. The bespoke farmhouse kitchen is equipped with custom wooden cabinetry, granite countertops, and premium appliances, including an electric Aga. The ground floor also features a convenient guest bedroom suite.

Upstairs, the first floor is home to four generously sized double bedrooms, each with its own en suite bathroom, unique charm, and scenic views. A spacious landing area provides an ideal space for a study or reading room and could even serve as an occasional sixth bedroom.

A glass walkway links the main house to the annexe, maximizing the beautiful views and offering direct access to the laundry room and barn. The annexe, originally a farm building with an adjoining piggery, has been thoughtfully converted into a welcoming living space. On the ground floor, there is an expansive open-plan kitchen, sitting, and dining area, along with three bedrooms and two bathrooms (one en suite) on the first floor.

Please note that the main house is subject to council tax Band G, while the barn is subject to council tax Band E.


Dowgill Farm is located in the heart of Nidderdale, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with easy access to nearby villages such as Dacre and Summerbridge, both offering local amenities, pubs, and bus services. The property is also well-positioned for quick access to Harrogate, Pateley Bridge and Skipton, all offering an excellent range of shops and services.

For those commuting, the business hubs of Leeds and Bradford are approximately twenty-three miles away, while Harrogate benefits from rail links to York and Leeds, providing direct connections to London Kings Cross. Leeds Bradford International Airport is within a short drive.

Distances
