5 bed detached house for sale

High Lane, Low Row, Richmond, North Yorkshire DL11

This handsome 18th century farmhouse has been thoughtfully renovated and maintained to a high standard, combining period character with modern refinement. The property enjoys a secluded position and far reaching views across Swaledale, with outlooks extending over the surrounding river valley, village and open moorland.

The accommodation is generous yet well balanced, arranged over two floors with the benefit of two staircases and a number of separate access points, lending flexibility for family living, hosting guests or multi generational occupation. Throughout the house there is an abundance of original detail, including exposed stonework, beams, stone flagged floors, sash windows with stone sills, fireplaces, a fitted Aga and a striking cast iron spiral staircase.

The ground floor centres around a spacious dining kitchen, fitted with bespoke cabinetry, granite work surfaces, a Belfast sink and Aga, with ample space for informal dining. Additional reception rooms include a snug or study and a generous sitting room with a triple aspect, exposed stonework and direct access to the gardens, offering scope for ancillary accommodation or independent use, subject to any necessary consents.

The principal first floor provides a main bedroom with en suite facilities, two further double bedrooms and a well appointed house bathroom. Two additional en suite double bedrooms with vaulted ceilings are accessed via the spiral staircase, one of which features a mezzanine level and external access, creating a particularly individual and characterful space.

Hollins Farm is approached via a gated, tree lined driveway leading to parking for several vehicles and a timber clad garage with electric door. The gardens are arranged into distinct areas, including stone paved terraces positioned to take advantage of the outlook, lawned sections and an established orchard.
Beyond the formal gardens lies an adjoining paddock with mature trees and the remains of a traditional stone barn, offering further interest and potential. In all, the grounds extend to just over one acre and enjoy open views across the surrounding countryside.
