Description

This charming detached family home, showcasing classic 'Arts and Crafts' architectural elements, is situated on the outskirts of the desirable hamlet of Wilsill. Surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens, this property features ample outdoor space along with off-street parking and a detached garage, making it an attractive proposition for those seeking both comfort and potential. Perched in an elevated position, the home offers captivating views over the Nidderdale countryside from nearly every room. The existing layout includes a welcoming garden room that leads into a functional kitchen with an adjoining study hall or breakfast area. The spacious sitting room and separate dining room both take advantage of the scenic vistas, creating a pleasant atmosphere for family gatherings or entertaining guests. The ground floor also includes a central reception hall and a bathroom, adding to the home's practicality. The first floor features a galleried landing that provides access to three generous double bedrooms and a guest cloakroom. While it is well-appointed as-is, there is significant renovation potential; with some creativity and investment, one could explore options for extending the current footprint (subject to local planning permissions) to enhance living space even further. The property's exterior complements its interior charm, featuring lawns, seating areas, and natural borders that merge seamlessly with the surrounding countryside. With convenient access to local amenities in Pateley Bridge and public transport links towards Harrogate via B1615, this location strikes a balance between tranquil rural living and accessibility. For those considering investment opportunities, this property not only holds potential for renovation but also benefits from a generally low risk of flooding as indicated by government assessments. Mains services are already installed for ease of use. Overall, this home provides an excellent foundation for someone looking to craft their ideal residence while capitalizing on its promising setting and layout.
