Brackenber Farmhouse

Lot 1
Of interest to those seeking a project (and that means more than a lick of paint!), nestling within the heart of the picturesque hamlet of Cold Cotes, this Grade II Listed farmhouse dates back to 1696. Now ready for updating it has plenty of original character features to plan your country home around - mullion windows, oak latched doors, oak window lintels and a slate shelved pantry. Step into the welcoming farmhouse kitchen with bottle green four oven Aga and then imagine the family all sat round the mulitfuel stove in the large sitting room. Upstairs there are three bedrooms and a bathroom. The master bedroom has an en-suite shower room and with the conversion of the attic, stairs lead to a study or dressing/hobbies room. As a renovation project you can upgrade to your own taste and specification. If you were thinking of a characterful holiday cottage from which to explore the Dales, this would be great to lock up and leave as there's no lawn to mow but there is a flagged fore-garden with plenty of space for a table and chairs and pots galore! There's no private parking with the house, it's just on the laneside in the village but there is a single garage and a store which is great if you're looking to store garden furniture, bikes and general clobber!

Mains electricity, drainage and metered water. Oil fired central heating. Fibre optic broadband connected.

Lot 2
Brackenber Croft - a detached parcel of land bounded by dry stone walls, the area is part gravel, part garden with lawn and planted borders. There's a cracking view towards the Bowland Fells. Now, here's the rub�.there's no vehicular access to the land, but you can park in the village and walk 50 yards or so up the lane� and believe us, it's worth it for that view! There's a great building on site, with planning permission for a use ancillary to the farmhouse. Without the farmhouse you'd need to apply to have this clause lifted and also apply for the use you'd like, at the present time it's just a quiet space where you can come to write, paint, grow�or just have time to yourself! There's no hope of a building plot or commercial use.

There's mains electric and underfloor heating (currently off Brackenber Farmhouse's electric supply) but the vendor will cover the cost of the supply to be separated.

How to find it - head along the A65 towards Settle, passing through Ingleton. After approximately 2 miles, turn left, signposted Cold Cotes and continue. Follow the road into the village and Brackenber Farmhouse can be found on the right hand side opposite the post box.
