About this property

  • Permitted development was obtained from North Yorkshire Council on the 5th December 2023 for the change of use and conversion of a former agricultural building to form an eye catching contemporary dwelling (Ref: PP-12528720).

    The plans approved allow for the creation of a sizeable, eye catching property extending to around 5000 square feet, as well as associated access, parking areas and landscaped gardens, with grassland to the south equating to around 2.3 acres.

    The intended property has been designed to make the most of the views and natural light via a series of full height picture windows on three elevations, benefiting all of the key rooms which include a large kitchen dining area, dining or family room, large double height entrance lobby and flexible ground floor bedroom with en suite bathroom which could double as a study. The current plan also allows for five bedrooms and three bathrooms on the first floor, emanating from a galleried landing.

    The former agricultural barn is approached via a shared tarmac driveway which previously served Gill Moor Farm and now leads to a cluster of residential properties some distance from the barn. The site provides a substantial parcel of land which equates to about an acre, which adjoins open countryside and provides wonderful rural views on three sides.

    This represents an increasingly rare opportunity to purchase a plot with planning passed for the conversion of a former agricultural barn on the edge of a rural village.

    Agents Note: boundaries are subject to change

For those with the vision and enthusiasm, this is a very rare opportunity to develop a statement property in a fabulous rural location with incredible views.

Local information

  • Whilst the property enjoys particularly rural surroundings, it remains conveniently close to amenities. The nearby village of Ripley (about three miles), which has a castle and gardens, also provides an art gallery, farm shop, quality food shop and an active Village Hall. There is also a historic church, primary school and a variety of small shops, including a distillery and the famous 'Ripleys' ice cream' shop. The property is a short distance from the A61, although not within earshot, providing easy access to Harrogate and Ripon, both with excellent schooling, independent retailers and restaurateurs. The railway station in Harrogate connects with mainline stations in Leeds and York and provides frequent services to London Kings Cross and Edinburgh.
  • The barn stands on the eastern edge of the North Yorkshire Dales National Park and close to Brimham Rocks, a local landmark and excellent vantage point from which to enjoy Nidderdale, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The surrounding area is a haven for walkers and outdoor enthusiasts, but remains within a relatively short drive of Ripon, Harrogate and the A1(M), making it a viable option for commuters.
  • Please note all distances and travel time are approximate.
