Spen House Farm presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial Grade II listed detached residence set in a tranquil elevated location overlooking the village of Askrigg. Boasting approximately 1700 square feet of living space across two levels, this property is ripe for renovation and investment. While some updating is necessary, it holds great promise as a spacious family home or could be adapted to suit various lifestyle needs.
The welcoming entrance leads into a generous living room featuring an inviting log-burning stove housed within a traditional stone fireplace. The inner hall connects to functional spaces, including a utility room and separate cloakroom. The family kitchen diner, bathed in natural light through dual aspect windows, comprises fitted units with an electric oven and ample room for dining – perfect for gatherings.
Upstairs, four double bedrooms provide picturesque views of the surrounding countryside. The main bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and dual front-facing windows. A house bathroom completes this level with essential amenities. Notably, the fourth bedroom grants access to an expansive storage room that could easily be transformed into additional living space such as a fifth bedroom or home office, enhancing the property's functionality.
Adjoining the house is a sizable barn offering significant potential for further development or conversion into ancillary accommodation, subject to planning consent. This versatile space also serves as excellent storage with convenient access options.
Outdoors, the property features an enclosed walled garden adorned with charming bee-boles and an adjacent woodland area combined with ample parking facilities. Additionally, it encompasses approximately 1.97 acres of land to the rear and side along with another stone barn that provides excellent shelter for animals and includes running water. An extra field extending to 1.87 acres is available separately if desired.
This property will appeal to families seeking rural tranquility or investors interested in land use for livestock such as sheep or horses. Early viewing is recommended to fully appreciate its potential.
