Description

Red House Farm presents a unique opportunity to acquire a spacious detached farmhouse, roughly 2,500 sq ft, set against the picturesque backdrop of the North Yorkshire Moors. While the property boasts generous proportions and retains many original period features, it is in need of extensive renovation to restore its former charm and functionality as an inviting family home. The ground floor offers an entrance hall leading to a sitting room adorned with a fireplace, a kitchen equipped with a solid fuel Rayburn and a range of fitted units, and a dining room featuring an open fire—perfect for family gatherings. Additionally, there is a practical downstairs shower room. Upstairs, the property accommodates four bedrooms, some with remarkable views of the surrounding landscape. A family bathroom and an additional W.C. add convenience for larger households. The second floor currently comprises four rooms that hold significant potential for conversion into two spacious bedrooms coupled with a W.C., enhancing living space further. Externally, the southern elevation features a lawned garden bordered by a low stone wall, while the northern side includes expansive lawned areas and paddocks across approximately 5.10 acres—ideal for equestrian enthusiasts or those interested in smallholding ventures. This property not only allows for personal touches through renovation but also comes with approved planning permission to convert adjacent barns located within an attractive courtyard into three separate dwellings (one three-bedroom and two two-bedroom properties), complete with gardens and parking spaces. The planning process details can be reviewed on the North Yorkshire Moors National Park planning portal under reference NYM/2021/0832/FL. Note that these barn conversions are subject to occupancy regulations. For those seeking a robust structure where they can create their dream family residence while investing in additional living spaces through barn conversions, this is an exceptional opportunity.
