Introduction
As the name suggests, High View Farm enjoys superb panoramic views over its own land, towards Whernside and the Upper reaches of Nidderdale within the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The setting is wonderfully rural, yet there is a wide range of day-to-day amenities within 10 minutes' drive in the picturesque Dales town of Pateley Bridge. Wider amenities are in Harrogate some 20/25 minutes' drive and the Dales market town of Grassington is approximately 15 minutes to the West on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
The occupation of the dwelling is limited by an Agricultural Occupancy Restriction. The whole of the property, High View Farm, is subject to a Section 106 Town and Country Planning Act 1990 Agreement requiring that the whole of the property shall remain in the same ownership.
Description
This stunning hill farm with a substantial house/steading sits exceptionally well on top of Greenhow Hill. The property totals in excess of some 300 acres with potential for a wide variety of uses including traditional farming alongside other potential ventures such as leisure, tourism, and education. Additionally, there are emerging opportunities in respect of farming for nature, fostering biodiversity, further wilding of the upland pastures and incorporating the lead mining heritage of the area for environmental/tourism purposes (subject to the necessary planning consents). In today's world a property sat in its own extensive land is increasingly sought after and hard to come by.
Farmhouse
The farmhouse offers many factors desirable for modern day living, such as the open plan kitchen/dining area that leads to a snug and conservatory.
The interiors of the High View farmhouse are exceptional with an immaculate eye for detail that one might not necessarily expect in a Dales farmhouse. The living accommodation is designed to offer flexibility of use with 5 bedrooms and 3 reception rooms centred around a high specification dining kitchen. The fifth bedroom has separate independent access (as well as from the main house) and could be used as dependent relatives' accommodation, separate teenagers suite or indeed home working, plus integral garaging to the house as well as a separate detached garage building. The formal gardens are another notable feature, with lawn, strategic terrace and superb views.
Farm Buildings
Situated to the south of the farmhouse there is a range of general-purpose agricultural buildings extending to some 3,924 sq ft (364 sq m) providing space for storage and livestock handling.
Land
The land is in two blocks with approximately 59 acres (24 Ha) surrounding the farmhouse of predominantly pasture and a separate parcel to the north measuring approximately 244 acres (99 Ha) lying in a ring fence, comprising pasture with rough grazing but includes other areas of interest and buildings relating to the lead mining heritage of the area. With reference to Soilscapes the land is described as wet, very acidic upland soils with a peaty surface, and is classed as Grade 5 according to the Provisional Agricultural Land Classification. The land offers opportunity for that of traditional farming and sporting enterprises alongside amenity, biodiversity and environmental opportunities.
