Chalybeate

Welcome to Chalybeate, a quaint but lucrative lifestyle opportunity, found at the foot of the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Resting back from the A65 access road, with a total of 3 acres approx, the attached Cattery and Kennel business is thriving, with average profits in the region of £80K per year, with  a potential volume of up to 100+ canines and 40+ felines, with an attached maternity unit, specialised for Golden Labradors and Cocker Spaniels, rated with five-star recommendations.

Nearby Ingleton boasts an array of amenities; a co-op supermarket, a fuel station and an abundance of pubs and restaurants, including the highly recommended Masons Freehouse, favoured amongst locals, and the famous Ingleton Waterfalls. Chalybeate is also just 10 minutes’ drive from nearby market town, Kirkby Lonsdale - a popular tourist hotspot, which provides brilliant entertainment options as well as multiple convenience stores and local shops.

Potential to extend the business includes a stable block, easily able to hold up to 4 additional boxes, a large poultry & game housing, and capacity for additional grooming services within the current reception building to be set up. The reception building currently holds the feed room, utility space and visitor reception area. The plot also holds a cluster of agricultural buildings and workshops, separated from the main kennels & cattery, along with the maternity facility. A decent-size lake is found to the far end of the land, where the current owners carry out all of the working dogs’ training exercises.

The residential property found on this gorgeous 3-acre plot is finished immaculately, a five-bedroom residence with a contemporary open-plan kitchen/dining space, with a central island/breakfast bar, accessed directly from both the front elevation and the sheltered sun terrace. A cosy lounge with a beautiful feature fireplace and a utility room with WC are found just off the kitchen/diner, with access to the first floor via the stairs.

Upstairs, four spacious double rooms and a single room currently used as a home office space. The master bedroom boasts great amounts of space with an attached ensuite comprising of full bathroom facilities. The loft is prime for conversion and could be potentially transformed into a further two bedrooms.
