Detached Period Property
Marridale is a truly remarkable period property, nestled in a quiet and accessible location that offers the best of both worlds—a tranquil retreat with convenient links to nearby amenities.
Situated on a serene lane just outside the charming village of Gayle, the property boasts breathtaking, long-distance views over Stags Fell. The vibrant town of Hawes is just a short drive or a pleasant walk away, making it effortlessly accessible.
Hawes is renowned for its traditional weekly outdoor market and is famous for its cheese-making heritage, stunning landscapes, and thriving farming community. The town is home to a variety of shops, pubs, restaurants, a church, chapel, doctor's surgery, and a primary school. While it attracts tourists, it has retained a strong sense of community that makes it a welcoming place to live.
Dating back to the early 1900s, Marridale retains much of its original charm and character. From its high ceilings to its generously proportioned rooms, this historic gem offers a sense of grandeur you’d expect from a period home, with modern comforts carefully integrated.
The ground floor welcomes you with an impressive entrance hall featuring a striking turned staircase. There are two elegant front reception rooms, each offering stunning views over open fields, with Stags Fell towering in the distance. At the rear, you’ll find a traditional farmhouse-style kitchen, along with a back kitchen, ideal for food preparation. There is also a traditional Dales pantry and a cloakroom for added convenience.
Upstairs, the property offers three spacious double bedrooms and a versatile single room that could serve as a home office or additional bedroom. A bathroom and a separate shower room complete this floor, ensuring ample space for family living.
Surrounding the house, the gardens are beautifully maintained, primarily lawn with well-stocked borders. Laurel hedging offers privacy, creating an intimate outdoor space. A private, gated driveway leads to the garage and workshop, with plenty of parking available for several vehicles.
Opposite the property is a small paddock, approximately 0.67 acres in size, available by separate negotiation. This is a perfect spot for keeping hens, sheep, or even a pony.
Marridale is the ideal home for a family or those seeking an active retreat in a peaceful yet accessible location. Its blend of history, charm, and modern convenience makes it a truly special property.
