Steeped in historic grandeur and situated in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, this barn conversion is enveloped by a sprawling lawn and shaded by mature trees. With elegant social spaces aplenty, this country abode is perfect for multigenerational family gatherings or a long overdue celebration with friends, plus a couple of tufty-pawed tag-a-longs. Pack a picnic and feast al fresco overlooking the rugged limewashed cliffs of Malham Cove (8 miles). After a day of adventuring, crack open a chilled tipple and sink onto the plush corner sofa to unwind in the roar of the wood burner.
This property encompasses a tasteful blend of traditional charm and contemporary craftsmanship. Picture wooden beams, exposed stone textures, creamy neutral hues and Scandi-inspired minimalist styling. Kick off boots and outer layers in the hallway then explore inside. Freshen up any mucky outdoor gear in the cloakroom before ascending the staircase to the striking living space.
Curl up on the armchair nestled by the window to thumb through a local guidebook or congregate on the sofa for a pre-dinner drink and bask in the roar of the wood burner. Settle in with a film on the Smart TV in cooler months or throw open the patio doors to drink in balmy summer evenings. Stepping up from the lounge, the resident chef can potter in the breezy farmhouse kitchen to rustle up a family feast. Adorn the wooden dining table with glassware and crockery, then dish up a local takeaway or celebratory home-cooked supper.
When night falls, discover four beautifully presented bedrooms upstairs. Snuggle up in the soft linens of an en-suite super-king-size, two king-size rooms and a twin. Completing the property is a tiled family bathroom. Outside, saunter through the wildflower-peppered garden, dine on the patio or settle in for a sizzling BBQ soiree.
