Property Description WITH A DETACHED SUPERB QUALITY GUEST / HOLIDAY ANNEX
Wow...what a stunning house in the most amazing setting. This former reservoir keeper’s house is located on the edge of the picturesque hamlet of Winterburn, close to the serene reservoir, and enjoys superb views and a pleasant outlook from every window.
Dating to 1896, the property benefits from a large garden, double garage, and ample parking. The property is a short walk into the hamlet, and 15 minutes’ drive from the market town of Skipton.
This unique and beautifully modernised detached family home offers an exceptional lifestyle opportunity. With four bedrooms and three bathrooms, this remarkable house is perfect for families seeking both comfort and character.
The detached annex is a very versatile space, with its own kitchen and bathroom. It is currently set up as a guest suite and home office and would be ideal for a teenager or dependent relative.

The entrance is a charming porch with a stone flagged floor, ideal for muddy boots, with a good-sized utility/laundry room and a ground floor cloakroom/shower just off the hall.
The spacious sitting room, with high quality sisal floor-coverings, boasts high ceilings and large windows that flood the space with natural light and give delightful views. A stone fireplace with a Clearview log burning stove adds warmth and charm, with built-in cupboards to either side for storage, and further built-in display shelving and a bookcase. There is a study area with a window and fine views, leading to the front door/entrance vestibule, and the original staircase rises to the first floor.
The farmhouse-style dining-kitchen with stone flagged floor has ample space for a 10-person dining suite. A feature dresser unit and exposed stone, recessed shelving create a welcoming atmosphere for family meals. There is an extensive range of Smallbone of Devizes solid wood units with granite work-tops, an electric hob, and exposed beams. The centrepiece is an Everhot range cooker.
The first floor comprises three well-proportioned bedrooms, two being good sized doubles, and each with its own unique features. The stylish bathroom is complete with a free-standing bath. The views from every room are fabulous.
The property includes a self-contained studio/annex, which could serve as accommodation for a dependent relative or older child/young adult. This versatile space features its own kitchenette, living area/bedroom, and modern bathroom.
Set within manicured grounds of approximately 0.479 acres, the property boasts extensive sun-catching gardens, garden shed, and a double garage with a workshop area at the rear, and electric door.

Winterburn is a charming rural community, surrounded by stunning scenery and excellent walking, mountain biking, and road cycling opportunities. With the nearby villages of Hetton and Airton just a couple of miles away, and the bustling market town of Skipton only seven miles distant, this location offers both tranquility and accessibility.
