Robin Lane, High Bentham, North Yorkshire

A substantial six-bedroom stone-built period residence, located in a very convenient position on the edge of High Bentham, standing within a large, mature plot.

The property offers extensive and well-planned accommodation arranged over three floors, with a wealth of character features evident throughout.

To the ground floor, the property comprises a side entrance porch with WC, leading into a spacious inner hallway with fantastic staircase rising to the first floor. There are two large reception rooms, a living kitchen, sunroom and utility rooms.

To the first floor is a wide landing serving three very large double bedrooms and a house bathroom with three further double bedrooms located on the second floor.

Externally, the property stands within a very extensive overgrown garden to the front, side and rear, the extent of which cannot be fully appreciated without inspection.

The property is in need of some modernisation and renovation but offers exceptional potential to create a superb family home in a stunning setting.

Features evident include high ceilings, coving, cornicing, doors and fireplaces. The property benefits from partial double glazing and gas fired central heating.

An absolute gem of a property, which can only be fully appreciated by internal inspection. Ideal property for a family purchaser or developer/builder.

The property may offer development potential i.e. to be split in two, or the garden developed, all subject to the necessary approvals.

Positioned on the edge of town and will command superb views once the garden area is cut back.

High Bentham is a small market town situated within stunning countryside on the edge of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
