Birchentree Farm £400,000 BIRCHENTREE FARM £400,000 Cowgill, The Yorkshire Dales, LA10 5RQ Here we bring you a stunning location and immense potential! In a fabulous elevated location enjoying stunning views up and down the valley, a Grade II Listed detached farmhouse now ready for complete restoration. Dating back to the early 18th Century, later extended in the 19th Century and in the same family since 1949, this is a great project, either for the house as it stands or by way of extension into the attached barn (subject to consent). There is a large detached garage, private gardens to the rear and land, c. 6.35 acres (2.57 hectares) to the front and rear. Further land maybe available separately. Downshift - escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life with this peaceful haven. www.davis-bowring.co.uk Welcome to BIRCHENTREE FARM £400,000 Cowgill, The Yorskhire Dales, LA10 5RQ 1. Space, as is stands - with an approximate gross internal area of 2001 sq ft (185.9 sq m) it’s a good sized family house as it stands but with planning permission you might look to extend into the attached barn. 2. Work from home potential - there is a first floor room accessed via an external staircase, which could be incorporated into the main accommodation or it could be used a home office, workshop, studio. It would also make a great guest suite or hobbies room, in fact, whatever you need it to be be! 3. Location, location, location - escape to the country and this peaceful and beautifully scenic setting in the Cumbrian part of The Yorkshire Dales. Although a rural location, there are good communication links with local towns and railway services. 4. Outstanding views - the farmhouse sits in an elevated position on the western side of the valley, with stunning views across the valley, to the north towards the Howgills and to the south. 5. Period features - stone mullion windows, flag floors, beamed ceilings, a sitting room oak fronted cupboard inlaid with 1720 G, T A, stone benches in the pantry, a bedroom panelled window seat, exposed floor boards and boarded doors with Suffolk latches. 6. So much potential - “put your own stamp” on it as we estate agents like to to say! It’s a big job (but doubtless very rewarding!), certainly more than a few trips to B&Q. 7. Outbuildings - attached to the farmhouse is a single storey stone and slate barn (34’5 x 18’2 [10.8 m x 5.55 m]) with double open metal doors and a lean-to shippon (24’9 x 13’8 [7.6 m x 4.22 m]) with slate and timber boskins. There is also a detached garage 30’7 x 20’4 [9.37 m x 6.22 m])with power, light, corrugated sheeted roof and mechanic's pit. 8. Informal rural gardens - a cobbled area to the front leads through a gate to the rear garden with an abundance of spring bulbs, mature trees and a small stream. 9. Land - c. 6.35 acres (2.57 hectares) of land bounded by stone walls lies to the front of the property with a small parcel to the rear. Enough for you to potter and for children to play. 10. Additional land - further land available separately. Please ask us for further details. Peace and tranquility in the heart of the Dales Immensely scenic, Dentdale is situated in the Cumbrian part of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. An extract from YDNPA website notes - Close to the Lake District National Park and the Lune Valley the area is famous for beautiful countryside and is the perfect spot if you enjoy the outdoor life; you can walk, run, cycle, even trot your way around these lovely lanes, alternatively, just sit back, relax and enjoy the views! Far from the madding crowd, the hamlet Cowgill is for the person who is seeking peace and quiet. There’s a pub, the popular Sportsman's Inn, a church, a train station and other than that, it’s pretty much just fields and sheep! With its cobbled streets, nearby Dent (2.7 miles) offers a range of local facilities - a general store with outreach post office, an art gallery, church, a selection of tea shops and two pubs. The historic market and book town of Sedbergh (8 miles) has a well-regarded independent school and offers a wider range of local amenities including a large Spar, weekly market and the doctor and dentist. The pretty village of Ingleton (11.7 miles via Deepdale - a stunning drive, we urge you to try it) is home to The Ingleton Waterfalls Walk with woodland gorges and spectacular waterfalls; there’s also an open-air swimming pool (open May to September) and a local range of basic amenity shops inlcuding an artisan bakery, Seasons. The traditional market town Kirkby Lonsdale is 12.9 miles via beautiful Barbondale (a second journey to revel in the scenery!) offers independent shops, popular restaurants and pubs, a post office, churches and a well-regarded Booths supermarket. The market town of Kendal, known as the Gateway to the Lakes (18.9 miles) and the Georgian city of Lancaster (27.3 miles via B6254) provide a comprehensive range of educational, commercial and recreational facilities. There are primary schools at Dent, Sedbergh and Ingleton with secondary schools at Sedbergh, Kirkby Lonsdale and Kendal. Sedbergh is also home to the well-regarded independent school with the preparatory school at Casterton. Travel by car - access to J37 of the M6 is 12.5 miles distant with access to the A65 11.5 miles away at Ingleton. Travel by train - you won't have to go far as the station is close by. On the famous Settle to Carlisle line, the route, which crosses the remote scenic regions of the Yorkshire Dales and the North Pennines, runs between Settle Junction and Carlisle. Carlisle and Oxenholme provide stations on the West Coast main line. Travel by air you'll find Leeds Bradford airport (55.3 miles) most convenient. To find the property - exit the M6 at J37 and drive through Sedbergh to Dent, through the cobbled streets and at the George and Dragon pub bear right. Continue for a further 2.7 miles and after passing a roadside barn on the left hand side, turn right opposite a public footpath sign (Nelly Bridge 1/8 mile); there is a mill stone carved and a post box set in the wall immediately after the entrance and up the track to the top.

  • (Pronounced 'Sed – Ber') Sedbergh Is the Largest Town in the Yorkshire
    Sedbergh (pronounced ‘sed – ber’) Sedbergh is the largest town in the Yorkshire Dales National Park but really it’s a small place, cosy beneath the Howgill Fells. For centuries it was in the West Riding of Yorkshire, moving into Cumbria in 1974. The police station still displays the White Rose of Yorkshire. The town dates from pre-Roman times. Its name could be ‘Sadda’s beorgh’ [hill top] or ‘flat-topped hill’. In 1251 it was granted a market charter. Today it’s dominated by Sedbergh public school, founded in about 1525 by Roger Lupton, Provost of Eton College and a 'Howgill boy’. The School’s brown signs are everywhere. Sedbergh School’s song is Winder , named after the hill that overlooks the town. The song’s refrain is: For it isn’t our ancient lineage, there are others as old as we. And it isn’t our pious founders, though we honour their memory. ‘Tis the hills that are stood around us, unchanged since our days began. It is Cautley, Calf and WINDER, that makes the Sedbergh man. The School’s motto is DURA VIRUM NUTRIX: ‘a stern nurse of men’. Girls were first enrolled in 2001. It’s a sporty school, seriously playing rugby union and cricket. The sports facilities are impressive. Old Sedberghians who excel at sport merit wearing a brown blazer. ‘Browns’ attend an end of season First Term dinner. The School holds an annual 10 mile cross country race – the Wilson Run – up and across Winder hill. Since 2006 Sedbergh has been England’s book town, like Hay-on-Wye in Wales.
