House For Sale £2,100,000
Fringill Dike House is a particularly impressive architect designed eco-house occupying an enviable semi-rural position. This newly constructed home utilises a simple mix of dry stone walls and sedum living roofs which blend effortlessly with the surrounding landscape in a sensitive and contextual manner. This stunning contemporary home offers sleek and stylish accommodation extending to over 6,500 square feet, including integral double garaging.
The property is approached via an imposing set of electric gates to a lengthy private driveway over a bridge which gently winds round, past a grassed field which could be a potential paddock, to the generous parking and turning area in front of the integral double garaging, adjacent to the main entrance to the house.
Upon entering the house you are immediately struck by the scale of the accommodation on offer with oak steps leading you down from the hallway into the incredible 53 foot long kitchen space with a full wall of floor to ceiling glazing framing the distant uninterrupted views beyond. A bank of bespoke units offer plenty of storage as well as housing the various integrated appliances, in addition to a large central island unit with breakfast bar seating area. There is ample room for separate dining and sitting areas within this impressive space.
Directly off the kitchen is a separate dual aspect living room, again with a full wall of floor to ceiling glazing with direct access to the gardens. This spacious reception room leads down to the lower ground floor of the house where there is expansive and versatile accommodation arranged as two large individual spaces, ideal as a cinema room and gymnasium, among other potential uses. This lower floor benefits from high ceilings with glazed panels in the terracing above flooding the space with natural light. In addition to the two principal rooms, there is a shower room with sauna, separate w/c and plant room.
The ground floor is completed by a study with views, generous cloakroom, guest w/c with wash basin, fully fitted utility room, storage room and integrated double garage with a pair of electric doors.
Upstairs a landing provides access to five bedrooms, all with their own en suite facilities, including the impressive principal bedroom suite with stunning scenic views, glazed roof lantern, fully fitted dressing room and large luxurious en suite with twin sinks, large bath and separate shower enclosure.
The gardens and grounds surround the property and extend to some 1.39 acres in total, with fully fenced and stone walled boundaries complemented by established planting, hedges and trees providing a high degree of privacy without comprising the exceptional elevated views over open countryside which are enjoyed by the main rooms within the house. A substantial paved sun terrace spans the entire width of the rear of the property, directly accessed from both the living room and kitchen making it an ideal outdoor entertaining space and alfresco dining area.
The pleasant Nidderdale village of Darley offers a village shop, sports field, public house and primary school. The property is a short drive from the spa town of Harrogate and the popular Dales town of Pateley Bridge. Both towns offer a varied selection of restaurants, cafes, shops and facilities, plus further schooling for primary and secondary ages. The surrounding areas boast some of Britain's most beautiful, tranquil countryside, gardens and parks.
