Description

This historic 18th-century farmhouse, along with a collection of barns, presents a remarkable opportunity for transformation situated within over 11 acres of picturesque countryside. Known as Matteson Farm, this Grade II listed property has been cherished as a family home for half a century and is now available without any onward chain. While the farmhouse requires substantial renovation, the potential to convert the adjacent barns into a spacious two-storey residence has already received planning approval, allowing for an attractive complement to the main building. The separate title for these barns opens up diverse options for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or even income generation through rental possibilities. The property boasts extensive river frontage along the serene River Ure, creating an idyllic setting for a private estate that incorporates gardens, lawns, and fields. The remarkable size—3535 sq ft for the farmhouse—alongside approximately 4023 sq ft planned for the barn conversion promises ample space for various functions including home offices or wellness areas. Nestled in the tranquil village of Lower Dunsforth and bordered by beautiful North Yorkshire countryside, Matteson Farm offers easy access to local amenities in nearby towns while retaining a sense of seclusion. The opportunity to restore this charming farmstead into a luxurious country residence is particularly appealing amidst its unspoiled surroundings.
