Description

This unique portfolio includes three properties set within approximately 3.5 acres of varied landscape in the picturesque Nidderdale area. The collection features East House, a traditional four to five-bedroom Victorian family residence boasting over 2743 sqft of space, Dipper Bank, a spacious three-bedroom barn conversion exceeding 1700 sqft with significant development potential, and The Old Smithy, a compact one-bedroom annexe perfect for guests or as a rental unit. East House is steeped in history and is nestled in a serene woodland, once part of an industrious flax mill community from the 19th century. After decades under the same family ownership, this diverse property offering provides excellent scope for renovation and modernization according to the new owners' preferences. It presents opportunities for multi-generational living, holiday rentals, or home-based business ventures. Approached via a private drive alongside the beck that powered local mills, East House features inviting reception areas and a sizable kitchen that connects to practical utility spaces. The lower ground level offers substantial vaulted cellars for storage or creative repurposing. The adjacent Dipper Bank currently serves as an appealing barn conversion complete with multiple reception rooms and bedrooms; interestingly, it holds potential for further expansion into adjoining barn spaces (contingent upon planning approval) which could significantly increase its living area. The Old Smithy is positioned conveniently at the rear with its own entrance and contains an open-plan layout conducive to guest accommodation or rental use. Both Dipper Bank and The Old Smithy have successfully generated rental income of £24,000 per annum under assured shorthold tenancies. Landscaped gardens complement the properties with winding paths leading through lawns and into woodlands and paddocks—a rare occurrence in such tranquil surroundings—while still providing easy access to nearby towns like Harrogate and Pateley Bridge.
