The property

Traditional Stone Farmhouse & Barns

Under The Hill is in the quiet setting of Stalling Busk.

Stalling Busk is located at the southern tip of Semerwater—Yorkshire’s second largest natural lake and a haven for wildlife and wildflowers. The village features a small, historic church and offers a tranquil rural setting. Just 3 miles away is the village of Bainbridge, which provides a primary school, chapel, pub, butcher's shop, garage, and convenience store. The bustling market town of Hawes is only 5 miles away, offering a wider range of amenities including a doctor's surgery, school, and various shops and services.

Under The Hill is a substantial and characterful Dales property, full of traditional features and rustic charm. The accommodation is generous and split over two floors, the ground floor includes two welcoming reception rooms, both with open fires, and a spacious farmhouse kitchen with oil fired AGA and a traditional pantry. A separate utility room and a downstairs family bathroom add practicality, there is potential to create annexe type accommodation using the boot room and the loft space above.

Upstairs, is a spacious landing, a great reading, working or occasional bedroom space. There are three good bedrooms and a house bathroom.

Outside, to the rear is a large garden/ paddock totalling approx. 0.3 acre, this is enclosed by dry stone wall and could be landscaped to create a large, South facing garden if desired. Alternatively it is a great space for hens, sheep or goats.

Opposite, are two stone barns, currently used as storage but could be developed subject to planning permissions. (Pre planning advice has been obtained). There is an additional, detached barn, used as a workshop/ studio.

Under The Hill is a modernisation project offering exciting potential, with the added benefit of three barns/outbuildings and a paddock.
