Description

SUMMARY
Ozendyke Manor is set back from the southern bank of the River Wharfe just under a mile south of the village of Bolton Percy, and predominantly surrounded by farmland. The village of Church Fenton lies c. 3.5 miles away and benefits from a primary school, public house and railway station providing access to the TransPennine Express and Northern railway lines, along with wider connectivity to York and the East Coast mainline. Tadcaster market town lies approximately 5 miles from the property and offers a host of amenities.

For road access, the A64 is under 5 miles from the property, connected via the B1223 and A162, putting Ozendyke Manor in a desirable location for commute to York, Leeds and Harrogate.

The property includes extensive infrastructure with potential for redevelopment in the direction of a purchaser’s choosing, be that agriculture, equestrian, leisure or residential redevelopment (subject to consents).

OZENDYKE MANOR HOUSE
The house is an attractive traditional property of red brick construction beneath a cement tile roof, in a picturesque position set back from the River Wharfe to the north. West of the house lie the farm buildings and paddock. The property requires a full programme of renovation works but comprises various traditional features, such as ranges stoves and fireplaces.

The ground floor accommodation consists of entrance hallway, separate dining room/ reception room with fireplace, sitting room with fireplace, downstairs WC and boiler room, side entrance with boot room, utility room to rear with a second “back” staircase leading to first floor. The first floor comprises a spacious landing leading to 5 double bedrooms, with fireplaces and a family bathroom. A further staircase leads to the attic which has been converted into a series of 4 rooms with scope for conversion into additional bedrooms / comfortable guest rooms. The property has oil fired central heating.

The farmhouse is encircled by a private lawned garden bound by hedgerows, with a cleared pathway along the riverbank forming the northern ownership boundary from the garden west to the rear of the farm buildings. The remnants of a small traditional red brick outbuilding sit in the rear garden.

FARM BUILDINGS
To the east of the farmhouse is a range of traditional farm buildings of single height and red brick construction with pantile roofs arranged in an L-shape, some housing loose boxes formerly used as stables/outdoor stores together with a covered area suitable as machinery/outdoor equipment storage. These sit around a concrete hardstanding area accessed from the public highway via a 5 bar timber gate, providing ample parking with scope for alternative use including further development/ expansion (subject to consents). To the rear of these buildings are two lean-to structures with timber frame portals and corrugated steel roofs, previously used as car ports.

The modern building sits along the eastern boundary of Ozendyke Manor and is constructed of a steel portal frame with steel profiling, block walls and fibre cement roof. This benefits from separate access from the public highway onto a hard standing concrete area. This building is occupied by a third party on a short term licence.

The buildings could be renovated and developed to provide additional residential properties, holiday cottages, office or commercial space (subject to the necessary consents). These buildings have flooded in the past due to rising water levels from the River Wharfe, this has not affected the Manor House to the vendor’s knowledge.

LAND
The land includes a small grass paddock and a proportion of adjoining bank to the River Wharfe which includes fishing rights.
