3 bed property for sale

Kiplin, Richmond DL10

Description / background

Harmire is an exceptionally private, residential smallholding comprising a period three-bedroom former shooting lodge, an attractive range of traditional outbuildings and adjoining grassland, extending in all to approximately 14 acres. The property occupies a secluded rural position between Richmond and Northallerton, surrounded by mature woodland and plantations which provide a particularly attractive and sheltered setting.

The farmhouse extends to approximately 1,922ft2 (178.55m2) including the adjoining single storey range of traditional outbuildings and provides accommodation arranged over two floors. The accommodation comprises a kitchen, dining room, living room, conservatory, utility room, two bathrooms and three bedrooms. The property now requires renovation and modernisation but offers considerable scope to create an impressive rural home, subject to the necessary consents.

Surrounding the house is an attractive range of traditional brick and pantile outbuildings providing stabling, kennels and general storage. The buildings offer useful ancillary accommodation with potential for equestrian, horticultural, smallholding and storage purposes.

The land lies conveniently around the house and buildings in a compact, largely ring-fenced block and comprises predominantly grassland divided into a number of useful paddocks. The holding also benefits from pond, mature hedgerows and established wildlife habitat, further enhancing the privacy and amenity of the property.

Location

Harmire is situated in an attractive and secluded rural position just to the north of Kiplin, approximately midway between the historic market town of Richmond to the west and Northallerton to the east. The property lies amongst open farmland and established woodland, providing a particularly private setting whilst remaining within convenient reach of nearby villages and market towns.

Richmond provides a wide range of everyday amenities including shops, cafés, public houses, schools, healthcare and leisure facilities. Northallerton offers a further comprehensive range of services together with a mainline railway station, whilst Catterick and Catterick Garrison are also readily accessible to the south-west.

The property is conveniently positioned for access to the B6271, providing connections towards Richmond and Northallerton, together with the A1(M) near Catterick, giving excellent north-south road links to Darlington, York and the wider regional road network.

The surrounding countryside is predominantly agricultural and wooded in character, with a network of quiet rural lanes and attractive countryside. The combination of its private setting, proximity to Richmond and Northallerton and convenient access to the A1(M) makes Harmire particularly well suited to those seeking a rural residence, smallholding or equestrian property without being overly isolated.
