Wharton House is a charming, double-fronted Dales residence, beautifully positioned in the sought-after village of Bainbridge.
The village itself is picturesque and offers a range of local amenities including a traditional pub, café, butcher, children’s play park, and a primary school. Just four miles away lies the vibrant market town of Hawes, which provides an extensive selection of facilities including shops, cafés, pubs, a church, a school, and medical services.
The property, believed to date back to 1830, seamlessly blends modern comforts with period character, featuring contemporary fixtures and fittings alongside original elements such as stone alcoves. The ground floor accommodation comprises a spacious lounge with a multi-fuel stove, a generous dining room, a modern kitchen/diner, utility room, and a shower room—all accessed from a central hallway.
Upstairs, the property offers three generously proportioned double bedrooms and a large single bedroom, currently used as a study. A stylish, modern family bathroom completes the first-floor layout.
Attached to the property is a large double-height garage with workshop space, power, lighting, and an up-and-over door. The garage also benefits from a large loft space, offering potential for storage, a studio, playroom, or even additional accommodation, subject to the necessary permissions. There is also a useful outbuilding housing the oil tank and a coal store.
Externally, the property boasts an enclosed, low-maintenance West facing rear garden with a pleasant seating area, established shrubs, and raised borders. To the front, a walled patio garden with wrought iron gate provides a welcoming entrance.
Wharton House represents a versatile and attractive opportunity—perfect as a full-time family residence, a holiday home, or a turnkey investment for buyers seeking a fully renovated, low-maintenance property in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales.
