Features and description

Stocks House is a substantial semi-detached house of traditional construction located in a popular village location. The property is in good order and benefits from being fully double glazed and having oil fired central heating. It has also been re-roofed within the last 20 years. There is a wealth of character throughout the property including high ceilings, open fires, stone floors and a large arch window.

The property is entered via an internal porch into a welcoming entrance hall from where the rooms lead off. The ground floor briefly comprises a large sitting room with impressive open fire set within stone surround, a dining room with open fire, and a traditional kitchen with stone flagged floor, a range of fitted units together with a solid fuel AGA and ample dining space. A useful rear porch leads out to the garden. There is also a separate dairy with original stone shelving and meat hooks. Uniquely, there is a large cellar below the kitchen which provides excellent storage.

There is a half landing with a double bedroom, family bathroom and a shower room with a further four bedrooms found on the first floor. Lovely views can be enjoyed from each bedroom and there is a feature arch window on the landing which makes a great feature. From the landing, a door leads up into the fantastic loft space which provides storage or alternatively could be used as a home office.

Externally the property is complemented by a generous rear garden which features a patio area for seating and potted plants. This leads down to a further walled garden area with lawn, a veg patch and a range of flower beds and trees. There is also a former outhouse which doubles as a useful store. Uniquely, the property benefits from having fishing rights on the River Bain, the shortest river in the UK, which runs at the bottom of the garden.

The property is further complemented by an attached single garage and workshop which provides safe parking if required, but could also provide opportunity to work from home with a variety of possible uses.

Stocks House would make an excellent family home in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. It would also make a great second home or holiday let.
