Property Description

Halsteads Barn is a captivating stone-built property nestled within the Forest of Bowland, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Set in an elevated peaceful and secluded location, the barn offers a retreat from the bustle of everyday life, surrounded by the serene, unspoiled landscape.

Once a traditional barn, the structure has been thoughtfully extended over time, with all additions carefully designed to maintain a cohesive and traditional aesthetic. The interior of Halsteads Barn mirrors this commitment to style, with each room reflecting the same character and charm with classic design elements. Stone details, exposed beams, and warm, earthy tones are consistent throughout, creating a seamless blend of old and new that preserves the barn’s character while offering comfortable, inviting living spaces.

One of the key features of Halsteads Barn is its flexible layout. The property is designed in such a way that it can be easily adapted to function as two separate dwellings, offering a unique opportunity for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or even rental income.

Adding to its charm, Halsteads Barn boasts an substantial garden providing an outdoor haven. The garden includes extensive lawn, vegetable and herb patches, fruit trees and bushes, a firepit with seating area, perfect for enjoying cool evenings under the stars, as well as a patio and summer room situated off the detached double garage. This summer room is an ideal spot to take in the breath-taking views of the surrounding landscape, including the renowned Yorkshire Three Peaks, which form a stunning backdrop to this exceptional property. It is also in a 'Dark Sky' area with no light pollution, perfect for star gazing.

The recent addition of the stone built double garage and summer room has provided a superb amount of storage, worthy of any car or motorbike collection; it also has the benefit of double electric roller doors.

Location

With views in all directions, Halstead Barn is situated on the edge of moorland, within the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The far reaching views include the famous Yorkshire Dales 3 Peaks of Ingleborough, Whernside and Pen-y-ghent, plus the Lakeland fells and Lune Valley.

The nearby market town of High Bentham provides a good range of shops, pubs and takeaways, along with a primary school, surgery, Post Office and train station on the Leeds/Lancaster line. Other local towns include Kirkby Lonsdale and Settle - both with Booths supermarkets. The A65 provides good connections for Kendal, the M6 and Skipton, and Lancaster can be reached in around 30 minutes by car.

Excellent secondary school options are available at both Settle College and QES, Kirkby Lonsdale.
