House For Sale £1,250,000
Gardens House occupies a private and secluded position in the hamlet of Farnley, just 1½ miles to the north east of Otley, within the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Otley’s bustling town centre provides an excellent range of facilities including three supermarkets – Waitrose, Asda and Sainsbury’s – along with a host of independent shops, good schools including Prince Henry’s Grammar School, a range
of excellent pubs, restaurants and cafes and a riverside park. For the commuter, Otley is well located for daily travel to the surrounding business centres of Leeds, Bradford and Harrogate. There are railway stations in Menston and Weeton/Huby which link to the mainline in Leeds and Leeds/Bradford International Airport is within a 15 minute drive.
Gardens House is a lovely detached property which originally formed part of the Farnley Hall Estate, having been constructed in 1876. It has been the much loved and cherished family home to the current owners for well over 40 years. It offers well proportioned accommodation and whilst having been carefully maintained, is now in need of some general updating, offering a fantastic and increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a lovely property with significant scope
and potential for further extension and development, subject to obtaining appropriate planning consents. This really is a once in a lifetime opportunity!
The accommodation is arranged over two floors and includes an entrance porch, central reception hall, a large sitting room with an adjoining conservatory which overlooks the gardens, dining room, family room, breakfast kitchen, utility room and a cloakroom. On the first floor is a landing, principal bedroom with an en suite shower room, three additional bedrooms and a house bathroom.
Outside, the property is approached off Farnley Lane via electrically operated entrance gates with a sweeping drive leading to a parking area to the side and also the double garage. The house occupies a lovely private setting, facing due south, with large lawned gardens, lying to the front and side, a good sized paddock, vegetable garden and a large timber shed, all culminating in an attractive wooded backdrop to its southern boundary.
