Description

Guide Price: £500,000 - £550,000

A superb detached bungalow in an idyllic location at the foot of Stags Fell, offering spacious and flexible accommodation with stunning countryside views. Currently operating as a successful holiday let, this versatile property would make an ideal family home, retirement residence, or investment opportunity.

Swallowdale occupies a wonderful position within the attractive hamlet of Simonstone, just 2 miles north of the popular market town of Hawes. Set on the approach to the famous Buttertubs Pass, the property enjoys a peaceful rural setting with beautiful walks and outstanding views directly from the doorstep.

Hawes offers an excellent range of local amenities including independent shops, restaurants, tearooms, pubs, a primary school, church, chapel, indoor market and weekly outdoor market. The area is a popular destination for both residents and visitors, with local attractions including Hardraw Force waterfall, just half a mile away, and the renowned Simonstone Hall Hotel and public house close by.

The property provides spacious and adaptable accommodation throughout, comprising a welcoming entrance hall, large sitting room with open fire, family dining area, kitchen, family snug, four bedrooms comprising two doubles and two singles, house bathroom and separate shower room. The integral garage provides excellent covered parking or workshop space, to the first floor of this area is a generous games room.

The property offers excellent flexibility and scope for further adaptation. Subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents, the accommodation could potentially be reconfigured to create annexe-style living space. There is also potential to incorporate a second kitchen, subject to the appropriate permissions, making it particularly well suited for a dependant relative, guest accommodation, home working or potentially as an additional income stream.

Swallowdale is currently run as a highly successful holiday let. The property can be sold as an ongoing concern, with contents available by separate negotiation.

The property benefits from oil-fired central heating and double glazing throughout.

Externally, the property is approached via a large driveway with gated access to both sides, providing ample parking for 3–4 vehicles. To the side is a private lawned garden and patio area, enjoying wonderful views towards Stags Fell. To the rear, the boundary extends into Shaw Gill woodland, with fencing installed for safety.

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial bungalow in one of the Yorkshire Dales’ most sought-after locations, offering exceptional flexibility and the potential for a variety of uses.
