Higher Carr Farm

Higher Carr Farm is a rustic farmhouse, with a wealth of character, and though it will require extensive modernisation and refurbishment it has the potential to become a splendid home. The outbuildings attached and in the vicinity offer significant potential for development, subject to the necessary consents.

The house itself has an Entrance hall and one main reception room. The kitchen has wooden units, an integrated stove and space for a dining table. Off the kitchen is a utility room, downstairs W/C and porch.

Upstairs there are two comfortable double bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom and a double bedroom with original feature fireplace, as well as a large family bathroom.

Higher Carr Farm is situated in a magnificent rural location, a wonderful position overlooking the stunning Wharfedale Valley towards Ilkley Moor and is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is ideally placed for the historic market town of Otley and the fashionable spa town of Ilkley, both towns have a variety of everyday facilities including shopping, social and recreational facilities. The area also has outstanding primary and secondary schools both state and private.

The cosmopolitan town of Harrogate provides an even wider range of shopping facilities, an excellent range of restaurants, café bars, theatre and cinema, extensive recreational facilities as well as superb schools. Transport links are most accessible with the closest train station being at Ben Rhydding and provides a fast line into Bradford or to Leeds, which has fast services to London Kings Cross or north to Newcastle and Edinburgh. The M621 motorway gives access to the main road networks and Leeds Bradford International airport.

The property is set in 1.48 acres and is surrounded by beautiful rolling farmland with spectacular views of the Wharfedale Valley. The house is part of a collection of farm buildings, which offers plenty of space for parking or further gardens to the front and rear should a potential purchaser wish. Attached to the farmhouse are a number of stone outbuildings and a beautiful barn with a beautiful arch, which would make a stunning feature when developed. The buildings could either be developed in to one main country house or multiple separate dwellings, subject to necessary consents.

There are also two agricultural barns to the side of the original house and stone buildings, which would potentially make lovely ancillary accommodation with garaging subject to necessary consents.
