Step Inside
Washfold House is a superb Grade II Listed Dales house, set within an idyllic and private location. The property has been extensively renovated and sympathetically enhanced to create a fantastic home, with beautifully presented accommodation. Character features of note include exposed beams, a stone façade, cottage-style double-glazed windows, a log burner, cast-iron fireplace and oak doors.

The front door opens directly into the impressive living, dining kitchen, fitted with white fronted units, green granite worktops, integrated oven, hob and stainless-steel sink. There is ample space for a large dining table, complemented by a striking timber beam and pillar and quality porcelain tiles.

Doors lead to two reception rooms, one currently used as a cosy sitting room/office, with a cast iron open fire, with timber surround and the living room benefits from a log burning stove and double doors into the kitchen. All principal reception rooms and the dining kitchen enjoy a dual aspect, making them particularly light.
Practical spaces include a utility room with fitted cabinetry and space for white goods, a timber-framed, lean-to boot room/garden room providing additional storage and shelter, and a rear hallway featuring a newly built oak staircase with panelling, storage and a cloakroom.

The staircase leads to an open landing, with an airing cupboard and access to three spacious double bedrooms, each benefitting from a quality en-suite. The principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect, oak-fronted wardrobes and a luxurious en-suite with contemporary bath, large shower, double vanity basin, with marble top and porcelain tiles.

The second bedroom features a dressing area, ideal to be used as a nursery if required, and a generous en-suite, with separate bath and shower. The third bedroom includes oak-fronted fitted wardrobes and a stylish contemporary shower room.

Step Outside
A lane provides access to the substantial plot, extending to approximately one acre, with lawned areas, rockery-style flower beds throughout the garden and a timber potting shed. Padley Beck, runs along the perimeter of the garden. There is also a patio area, ideal for hosting and several other seating areas to enjoy the lovely views over the surrounding moorland.

There is a stone bridge over the beck, within the garden, and a gate leading to a garth, which could be developed into an additional garden or orchard, and a stone piggery offers potential for conversion (subject to consents).

There is ample parking within the grounds and a useful oak-framed car port, workshop and log store.
