Description

Dating back to circa 1846, Suttill House is a striking stone-built property situated in arguably one of the most picturesque parts of North Yorkshire. The property benefits from a beautiful one bedroom annex and shepherds hut, currently run as successful holiday lets. In addition there are a variety of stone-built outbuildings and a four acre paddock.

This impressive property has undergone a meticulous renovation by the present and previous owners and is now presented in immaculate condition whilst still retaining an abundance of charming period features. Positioned in an elevated location, every window in the property enjoys its own unique countryside view.

The main residence has a well-designed layout with a superb open-plan kitchen-dining room, a separate sitting room and generous utility room with a door leading directly outside. Ascending the stairs to the first floor there are three bedrooms and a house bathroom, all enjoying elevated views across the beautiful Nidderdale countryside.

The wonderful stone-built annex pre-dates the main residence and was built as a house for the original owner. It has now been converted into a fantastic holiday cottage with open-plan kitchen-dining room, bathroom and mezzanine bedroom.

There are a series of outbuildings, totaling just under 1,500 square feet which have potential for conversion, subject to the usual permissions. Beyond the outbuildings there is a fenced four acre paddock.

The property is encompassed by a pretty, low-maintenance lawned garden with well-stocked borders, surrounded by a dry stone wall. In addition the original garage has been converted into a home office, with electric and bi-fold doors, this room would work equally well as a garden room for entertaining.
