A Rare Opportunity in the Heart of Nidderdale
Greystone Farm is a beautifully presented period farmhouse, occupying an elevated position within the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Enjoying uninterrupted, panoramic views across the stunning Washburn Valley, this exceptional home offers a unique blend of timeless character and contemporary living.

The Property - Dating back to circa 1890, the property was tastefully renovated and sympathetically extended in 2010. Many original features have been thoughtfully preserved and are enhanced by high-quality modern finishes, creating a home of considerable charm and comfort. The main entrance opens into an impressive dining hall—perfect for entertaining—with exposed beams and a welcoming atmosphere. Adjacent is a study with a useful built-in storage cupboard. The spacious sitting room is a standout feature, with a raised stone hearth, inset log-burning stove, and French doors opening onto the rear garden—bringing the outdoors in.

The stunning breakfast kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring a Rangemaster dual-fuel cooker, fully integrated appliances, and extensive fitted cabinetry. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a coordinated boot room and a stylish guest cloakroom/WC, which has its own external access. Throughout the ground floor, underfloor heating powered by an efficient LPG system provides consistent warmth and comfort.

First Floor - A wide staircase leads to a charming split-level landing with exposed ceiling beams and feature windows. The principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect, showcasing valley views and countryside charm. It includes a luxurious en-suite bathroom with a shower over bath, WC, and a double vanity unit. Two further double bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes, are served by a high-spec house shower room, complete with a walk-in rainfall shower, WC, and hand basin.

Outside - Approached through timber gates, a gravelled driveway offers ample off-street parking for several vehicles. A traditional stone-built outbuilding provides excellent storage, with a loft area above for additional space. The landscaped gardens are a highlight—meticulously maintained, with shaped lawns, mature planting, and multiple sun terraces. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee or evening drinks, there's always a perfect spot to relax and take in the incredible views.

Surrounding Area - Greystone Farm enjoys a peaceful setting within the Nidderdale AONB, yet remains conveniently close to the well-served villages of Darley and Dacre, offering local shops, pubs, a doctor’s surgery, and schools.
