Swallow Hill Farm, Moorside Lane, Askwith, Otley, LS21

Asking Price: £850,000

A fantastic opportunity to acquire a superbly presented five bedroom converted barn enjoying an exclusive rural setting north of

Askwith village. Swallow Hill Farm is a stunning family home, extended by the current owners to an exceptionally high standard having bespoke fixtures and fittings, and enabling them to create wonderfully light and spacious accommodation. Of particular note is the stunning kitchen dining room, designed and fitted by Brightwater Furniture and being open plan with the living room which has

bi-fold doors leading out to the garden. Whilst still retaining many character features such as exposed stone work and beams, the property benefits from having double glazing throughout and underfloor heating all through the ground floor and the majority of the

first floor. The property is set within 4 acres to include young woodland, a meadow planted as an orchard, two fields and a south facing garden to the front of the house, plus there is ample parking. In addition there is a stone built outbuilding, formerly a garage, which is ideal as a playroom or home office. A truly impressive home and one not to be missed.

The rural village of Askwith is nestled in between Otley and Ilkley and is also ideal for commuting to Harrogate. The facilities include a well regarded Primary School, a Public House with excellent views and a garden nursery. There is good access to the region's

motorway infrastructure for those wishing to travel further afield and Leeds Bradford International Airport is close at hand. Otley is a thriving, historical market town in the Wharfe Valley offering a wide range of amenities, shops, supermarkets and traditional pubs.

The town centre bus station has regular bus services to Leeds, Bradford and Harrogate, and in addition, there is a railway station at nearby Menston offering mainline links. For those travelling further afield, Leeds/Bradford International Airport is in nearby Yeadon.
