Description

Presenting a unique development opportunity to acquire a traditional stone farmhouse along with three income-generating cottages and a variety of outbuildings, all set within nearly 3 acres on the edge of a desirable Nidderdale village. This property, Holly House Farm, is ideal for those interested in renovation and investment potential, featuring planning permission for residential development on the large barn (approximately 2500 sq ft) that offers breathtaking views. The farmhouse itself requires modernization and could benefit from a thoughtful refurbishment to update its features while retaining its charm. It comprises an entrance porch, hallway, sitting room, lounge, and dining kitchen, alongside three double bedrooms and a house bathroom upstairs. A storage loft with potential for additional living space adds further value. Separately located are the three two-bedroom cottages – Curlew, Kestrel, and Wren – which currently generate income through Airbnb rentals and include double glazed windows and electric heating. Planning permission exists to convert these cottages into a single dwelling if desired. Each cottage includes its own garden area with scenic views over the Nidderdale countryside. The collection of utility buildings previously serviced vehicles and presents various functional opportunities; they could be demolished to create more outdoor space or retained for continued use. The generous garage/workspace offers further options for development under current planning approvals aimed at enhancing the living arrangements here. With immediate access to local amenities including shops and schools in Darley and Harrogate just a short drive away, this property is strategically located for both personal enjoyment and lucrative investment.
