Description
Set within approximately 9.2 acres of attractive West Yorkshire countryside, Morton End Farm is a detached farmhouse built in 1780 with adjoining barn, stables, extensive grounds, and grazing land. Offering a rare combination of character, space, and rural setting, the property presents an exciting opportunity for those looking to create a more substantial country home, pursue equestrian interests, or explore the potential for refurbishment and redevelopment, subject to the necessary consents.
The setting is particularly appealing. Open fields, mature greenery, and far-reaching countryside views surround the property, while a stream runs through the land and the grounds attract an abundance of wildlife, including deer, foxes, badgers, and a wide variety of birds.
For equestrian buyers, the existing stable provision, grazing land, and extensive additional space make Morton End Farm especially well suited to keeping horses. There is also a network of field access and a walkway extending across the land towards Doe Park.
The farmhouse itself retains considerable period character, with exposed beams, stained-glass panels, open fireplaces, and a cottage-style kitchen. It is comfortable in its present form but, importantly, offers scope for a new owner to modernise and adapt the accommodation to their own requirements.

THE BARN AND DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL
The adjoining barn is a particularly interesting feature of the property and offers significant potential for conversion or redevelopment, subject to the relevant planning permissions and consents.
Combined with the farmhouse, land, and rural setting, the existing buildings provide an opportunity to create a more substantial family home or a property tailored around equestrian and rural living.
The barn and surrounding land will appeal particularly to buyers seeking a project with genuine scope to add value and create something individual, rather than simply purchasing a finished property.

The land is rich in wildlife, with regular sightings of deer, foxes, and badgers, together with an abundance of birdlife. The stream, mature vegetation, and open fields contribute to a particularly peaceful environment.
The combination of land, views, existing equestrian facilities, and development potential makes this an unusually versatile rural property.
