Brookside

Brookside is a detached bungalow set within extensive, beautifully maintained grounds at Garsdale Head, an idyllic rural setting with stunning panoramic countryside views.

The picturesque Garsdale Valley, which links North Yorkshire with Cumbria and the Lake District, is just a short drive from the popular market town of Hawes, offering an excellent range of amenities including shops, cafés, pubs, a doctor's surgery and a primary school. Similar amenities, together with a secondary school and the renowned public school, are available in Sedbergh, approximately 9.5 miles away. Garsdale Head railway station is just a short walk from the property, situated on the famous Settle–Carlisle line and providing convenient connections to the national rail network. The M6 motorway is also within a 30-minute drive, making the property readily accessible despite its peaceful rural location. The surrounding area offers exceptional walking and outdoor pursuits, with routes including the Pennine Bridleway and Wild Boar Fell, while the abundance of local wildlife and birdlife further enhances the appeal of this beautiful setting.

The spacious accommodation includes an impressive 23ft dining kitchen and a spacious and welcoming living room. There are three generous double bedrooms, one of which has a contemporary en-suite shower room in addition to a stylish modern house bathroom. Every room enjoys delightful views over the gardens, the surrounding countryside, or both.

Brookside is presented in excellent decorative order throughout and benefits from LPG-fired central heating and mainly triple glazing. The current owner has undertaken an extensive programme of high-quality improvements, including the installation of a new roof, replacement windows and recently re built the detached garage, workshop and first-floor annexe. The gardens have also been landscaped to create an attractive and well-established outdoor space.

The stone built detached garage offers additional potential for further accommodation. The ground floor is currently used as a garage/ workshop with a versatile first-floor annexe. This currently is a work space but could easily offer open plan accommodation with a kitchenette and wet room already installed.

To the front of the property is an attractive lawned garden with mature trees, shrubs and well-stocked borders, together with a gated gravel driveway providing ample parking for several vehicles. To the rear, the generous south-facing garden is predominantly laid to lawn and beautifully maintained, with established planting, mature trees and colourful borders. A charming stream runs along the bottom of the garden, while the uninterrupted panoramic views across the surrounding countryside create a truly peaceful and picturesque setting.

Brookside is a superbly presented home offering an exceptional balance of space, privacy and accessibility. Whether as a permanent family residence, a holiday retreat or an investment opportunity, it occupies a truly enviable position within one of the Yorkshire Dales' most scenic locations.
