Description

Ozendyke Manor is a five-bedroom period farmhouse set on approximately 2.49 acres beside the River Wharfe, south of Bolton Percy. The house is offered for sale by private treaty and requires a full programme of renovation. Its accommodation includes an entrance hall, two reception rooms with fireplaces, a kitchen, downstairs WC, boiler room, boot room and utility room. Upstairs are five double bedrooms and a family bathroom, with a further staircase to an attic arranged as four rooms. The property has oil-fired central heating and retains traditional features including fireplaces and range stoves. The house is surrounded by a lawned garden, with a paddock and a cleared path along the riverbank. A group of traditional brick farm buildings, including former stables and covered storage, is arranged around a concrete yard. There is also a larger steel-framed building with separate access from the road, currently occupied by a third party on a short-term licence. The listing identifies possible alternative uses for the buildings, including residential, holiday, office or commercial use, subject to the necessary consents. The traditional buildings have flooded previously as river levels rose; the vendor is not aware of flooding affecting the manor house. The property is in a rural position within reach of Church Fenton and Tadcaster, with road links to the A64 and rail services at Church Fenton. Mains electricity and water are connected, while the private drainage system is shared with two neighbouring properties and is stated to require replacement to meet current regulations. The sale includes fishing rights and is subject to applicable rights of way, easements and wayleaves.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

77out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

Ozendyke Manor is a substantial period farmhouse with a clear full-renovation canvas: fireplaces and traditional joinery remain, while worn floors, marked walls and damaged plaster in several rooms give scope to reshape the interiors. The dated kitchen, older bathroom finishes and patchy, overgrown garden add further improvement opportunities. The house sits within a rural setting with a garden, yard and multiple farm buildings; the listing also describes possible alternative uses for those buildings, subject to consents, and their condition needs close inspection.

At £525,000, the asking price is exceptionally low at £127 per sq ft against a local average of £292, making the acquisition price a strong part of the opportunity. The works are substantial, with a stated renovation range of £75,000–£135,000, so this suits a buyer prepared to manage a major project rather than a cosmetic update. The visible farmhouse elevations and tiled roof appear broadly intact in the photographs, though that does not establish the condition of the wider property or outbuildings.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the farmhouse interiors around its fireplaces and traditional joinery, with scope to refresh the worn floors, plaster and dated finishes.
  • Improve the kitchen and garden to create a more cohesive home and setting.
  • Explore the potential of the farm buildings for agricultural, equestrian, leisure or residential use, subject to necessary consents.

Key risks

  • The worn interiors and damaged plaster across several rooms, alongside kitchen and garden works, put the £75,000–£135,000 budget into full-project territory rather than a cosmetic refresh; programme and costs will need careful management.
  • The photographs do not establish the full condition of the traditional outbuildings or the larger steel-framed building, so these need close inspection.
