Castle Hill House, Castle Hill, Middleham is a superb, unspoilt Grade II Listed House, nestled away in Middleham, looking onto the Castle with extensive grounds totalling approx. 0.47 Acre.

Middleham is an historic town in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, famous for its Castle, once home to Richard III and top horse racing connections. The town itself has an excellent community with a good range of pubs, shops, restaurants. There is also a church, primary school, and an active community centre.

Castle Hill House was split into two properties at some point in history and dates back to the eighteenth century. The accommodation is substantial and very versatile as it has the potential to be a large 4 bedroom house with a second floor apartment, already having its own separate external metal steps. Alternatively, you could have an extensive property over three floors. The ground floor has a lovely entrance hall, 2 large south facing reception rooms, kitchen diner, study and separate WC.

The property is unspoilt and retains many character features one would expect, such as flag floors, beams, picture rails, and ornate coving. The property does require modernisation and would benefit from a new heating system, re-wire, works to windows, guttering and various building work.

The original front door was where the french doors are presently. When the house was 'modernized' in 1912 and the door placed where it is now, the room on the left was known as the Garden Room. The kitchen was originally the butlers pantry. A passageway from the new front door and hall, led through to the big kitchen (now next door).

The top floor was possibly added later in the roof space, but once it was the servants' quarters.

Somewhere in history it is mentioned that at the location where the house is now, used to be a farm within the outermost walls of the medieval castle. There would have been stables and other working type buildings as well in that area of the castle grounds.

Externally, the property is accessed via the market square, heading to the gallops, turn to the Castle, go left down the back lane and turn right after Castle Hill. The initial drive is shared with next door and another building, you then go through Castle Hill House Listed gates, where there is ample parking for several vehicles. To the front of the property is a large lawned garden with flower borders and mature shrubs. Beyond that are stone steps up to a large wooded area with mature trees and an old pond. This space lends itself to many possibilities.
