An open front stone porch leads to the welcoming reception hall which in turn leads off to the principal reception rooms.

The home office (ideal for those who choose to work from home)/playroom enjoys similar southerly facing views.

Upstairs, the main bedroom has a range of fitted wardrobes and a spacious en-suite shower room. The four remaining double bedrooms (three with fitted wardrobes) are served by a spacious house bathroom with a corner bath as well as a shower cubicle. The most attractively presented family accommodation has sealed glazed windows (some UPVC framed) and an oil-fired heating system.
Riffa House Farm is situated in the heart of Lower Wharfedale surrounded by beautiful countryside with views to the front and rear, and scenic woodland walks literally on the doorstep. Harrogate Road (Riffa) is located south of Harrogate, a tourist destination of a very high quality offering an excellent shopping centre, a diverse selection of restaurants and bars, cinemas, and a theatre. Otley's nearby active market town offers extensive shops and stores including Waitrose, Sainsburys and Asda's supermarkets, schools including the highly regarded Prince Henry's Grammar and extensive recreational amenities. As Leathley lies within the catchment area of Harrogate Borough Council, it also enjoys eligibility to schools around Harrogate's exclusive spa town, including Ofsted rated "Outstanding" Harrogate Grammar School and it is famed also for its central 200-acre Stray. There are a number of private schools nearby too including Ashville College in Harrogate, The Grammar School at Leeds, Gateways at Harewood and Woodhouse Grove, Apperley Bridge, catering for all age groups. There is a useful connecting bus stop at the drive entrance. The property is strategically located for comfortable daily travelling into Yorkshire's key commercial centres including Leeds, Bradford and York. The national motorway network (A1/M1/M62) near to Wetherby makes areas further afield more accessible by road. Otley has a central town bus station with synchronised links to the railway station at nearby Menston which connects to Leeds, Bradford and beyond. There is however a railway station in the neighbouring village of Weeton (Huby) connecting to Leeds, Harrogate (now offering a direct link to Kings Cross) and York. The Leeds Bradford International Airport is located at nearby Yeadon.
