17th century farmhouse with adjoining newly converted 19th century barn, lying on the fringe of the Yorkshire Dales National Park on the Yorkshire / Lancashire borders. Near Settle, a pretty North Yorkshire market town, the property is in an "area of outstanding natural beauty" conservation area, the Forest of Bowland which is loved by both Royalty and show-biz personalities.
There is further conversion work to be done if you're interested - eg turning the two houses into one, or making an outbuilding into an office.
You'll certainly be able to transform the properties to your own requirements!
