Elbolton Croft, Thorpe, Skipton, BD23 6BJ

Elbolton Croft is one of the finest barn conversions in the Yorkshire Dales, having the perfect blend of beautiful character features along with the highest quality fixtures and fittings you will find. The vendor who has undertaken all of the conversion from start to finish is well-renowned for his workmanship and eye for detail, which is clear to see in this beautiful stone-built detached barn.

The barn originally dates back to the 1700's when it was named Beverley House and was owned by Barron Beverley. He lived in the property until his death, after this it was used as an agricultural barn until the current vendors converted it in 2018.

A sitting room with exposed oak beams and trusses with a feature stone fireplace housing a cast-iron multi-fuel stove, an open-plan dining kitchen with a bespoke hand-fitted oak farmhouse kitchen with marble worktops, a utility/bootroom with useful storage cupboards and a ground floor w/c.

To the first floor there are three good sized double bedrooms, all of which have ensuite bathrooms with 'Burlington of London' bathroom fittings and marble tiling throughout. The master bedroom also has a large walk-in wardrobe. The galleried landing provides a stunning feature with an oak embedded glass balustrade.

The beautiful hamlet of Thorpe dates back over 1000 years and is located approximately two miles south of the "Yorkshire Dales capital" village of Grassington. Thorpe is a highly admired formation of individual prestigious properties, some of which date back to the sixteenth and seventeenth century, with a manicured green and a beck in its centre. The hamlet has a timeless quality that is difficult to replicate, and those lucky enough to live in this exclusive community enjoy a peaceful rural setting with truly superb fell and countryside walks virtually on the doorstep.

The popular Yorkshire Dales villages of Grassington and Threshfield are only approximately a ten minutes drive away. The villages combined provide a good range of local amenities including primary and secondary schooling, public house, extensive range of shops and restaurants in Grassington and delightful rural walks along the banks of the River Wharfe.
