Detached Property In Sought After Location in Upper Swaledale


High Oxnop sits in a truly breathtaking, elevated position in the heart of the picturesque Swaledale countryside, just a short drive from the charming villages of Gunnerside, Muker, and Askrigg.

This beautifully presented detached property sits within approximately 0.75 acres of land and has panoramic views across Upper Swaledale. Originally a farm house with an attached barn, the property was sympathetically converted in 2000 and retains a wealth of original character features, including exposed beams, flagstone flooring, traditional fireplaces, and distinctive slit windows.

The accommodation is generously proportioned and arranged over two floors, offering both space and flexibility. A particularly appealing feature is the presence of two staircases, creating a natural separation between bedroom areas—ideal for family living or guest accommodation. On the ground floor are three reception rooms, including a charming sitting room centred around an impressive fireplace with a multi-fuel stove. There is also a well-appointed family dining kitchen and separate utility room.

Upstairs, the property offers four spacious bedrooms and two bathrooms, all enjoying delightful outlooks over the surrounding countryside.

Outside, the garden sits to the South of the property, this is currently a low maintenance patio garden with a lawn stretching down to the boundary wall. There is a detached stone building, this houses the water treatment plant and offers garden storage. There is a garth to the East, ideal for keeping hens aswell as a larger plot of land by the drive.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful home in an exceptional rural setting with far-reaching views.
