Gardens House occupies a private and secluded position in the hamlet of Farnley, just 1½ miles to the north east of Otley, within the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Otley’s bustling town centre provides an excellent range of facilities including three supermarkets – Waitrose, Asda and Sainsbury’s – along with a host of independent shops, good schools including Prince Henry’s Grammar School, a range
of excellent pubs, restaurants and cafes and a riverside park. For the commuter, Otley is well located for daily travel to the surrounding business centres of Leeds, Bradford and Harrogate. There are railway stations in Menston and Weeton/Huby which link to the mainline in Leeds and Leeds/Bradford International Airport is within a 15 minute drive.

Gardens House is a lovely detached property which originally formed part of the Farnley Hall Estate, having been constructed in 1876. It has been the much loved and cherished family home to the current owners for well over 40 years. It offers well proportioned accommodation and whilst having been carefully maintained, is now in need of some general updating, offering a fantastic and increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a lovely property with significant scope
and potential for further extension and development, subject to obtaining appropriate planning consents. This really is a once in a lifetime opportunity!

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and includes an entrance porch, central reception hall, a large sitting room with an adjoining conservatory which overlooks the gardens, dining room, family room, breakfast kitchen, utility room and a cloakroom. On the first floor is a landing, principal bedroom with an en suite shower room, three additional bedrooms and a house bathroom.

Outside, the property is approached off Farnley Lane via electrically operated entrance gates with a sweeping drive leading to a parking area to the side and also the double garage. The house occupies a lovely private setting, facing due south, with large lawned gardens, lying to the front and side, a good sized paddock, vegetable garden and a large timber shed, all culminating in an attractive wooded backdrop to its southern boundary.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on September 7, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
