Main Street, High Farnhill, North Yorkshire, BD20 9BW

Situated within the sought-after High Farnhill, occupying an elevated position with extensive views across the Aire Valley, this substantial and well-maintained traditional Yorkshire Long House is offered to the market for the first time in almost 30 years.

The property has been carefully maintained by the current owners and retains a wealth of original character throughout.

Approached via a shared private access road serving just three other properties, the house is set behind mature walled gardens enjoying a south-westerly aspect. The gardens have been arranged into a number of separate areas, including a sun terrace, generous lawn, established planting and a pond, each taking advantage of the far-reaching views across the valley.

A covered courtyard leads to the entrance, opening into a country-style breakfast kitchen centered around a traditional gas-fired AGA. The kitchen enjoys views across the front elevation and provides access to the spacious reception hall, offering a practical space for home working or additional seating. The formal sitting room is accessed from both the kitchen and hall and is centered around a substantial Yorkshire stone fireplace incorporating a wood-burning stove. Original features include exposed beams and stone flagged flooring.

A fully glazed door leads from the sitting room into the garden room, extending across much of the front elevation. Currently arranged as a seating and dining area, this versatile reception space benefits from a vaulted ceiling, recently installed Velux roof windows, exposed stonework and Yorkshire stone flagged flooring, with direct access onto the sun terrace through glazed doors.

The separate dining room is positioned adjacent to the sitting room and features a further fireplace with living flame gas fire. All of the principal ground floor rooms connect back to the spacious reception hall, which continues the character of the property with solid wood flooring and exposed beams.

Two staircases rise from the reception hall. One leads to the fourth double bedroom, a characterful room with exposed beams and stonework, offering a high degree of privacy from the principal accommodation and lending itself equally well as a guest bedroom or independent bedroom suite. The main staircase rises to the first-floor landing, providing access to three further double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is positioned to the front elevation, taking advantage of the uninterrupted views, and benefits from a contemporary en-suite shower room with walk-in shower. The second double bedroom also enjoys the same outlook, whilst the third double bedroom is positioned to the rear of the property.

Externally, the property provides extensive private parking together with a substantial garage/workshop and the covered courtyard.

Occupying a generous plot, the mature split-level walled gardens extend across the front of the property, enjoying a south-westerly aspect and far-reaching views across the Aire Valley.

High Farnhill is a desirable residential setting on the edge of Farnhill village, offering a balance of rural surroundings and everyday convenience. Neighboring Kildwick provides a well-regarded primary school, village church, public house and access to a network of public footpaths and countryside walks. The nearby village of Cross Hills, and towns of Skipton and Keighley offer a wider range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants and leisure facilities, whilst Cononley railway station provides regular rail services to Leeds, Bradford and Skipton, making the area well placed for commuters.

The property is fully serviced by gas central heating, double glazing and mains connected utilities.

According to Ofcom, the property is served by both standard and ultrafast broadband, with speeds of up to 1800Mbps download and 220Mbps upload available (subject to provider and subscription).
