In the heart of the North York Moors National Park, with beautiful views over moorland to the front and open farmland to the rear, Low Waupley Farm is an opportunity which is rarely
available for those seeking a fantastic family home set in approximately 1½ acres, with the additional benefit of two holiday cottages, fitted and equipped to an exceptional
standard, to provide substantial supplementary income.
Over ½ mile from the nearest neighbours, the Farmhouse is over 300 years old retaining the immense charm and character one would expect of a property of this age, whilst
meeting the requirements of modern day living.
The extensive accommodation comprises a recently fitted farmhouse kitchen, including the prerequisite Aga, lounge with dining area and study off, sitting room, utility and
bathroom on the ground floor, with three bedrooms and bathroom on the first floor. Exposed stonework, Pitch Pine woodwork, Oak floors, open fires and a wood burning stove are
just some of the many features which abound in this stunning property. Outside there is ample parking, three good size stone built stores, within which is situated the newly fitted and
highly efficient bio-mass boiler and pellet store, large open plan gardens bounded by an attractive stream overlooking the moors together with two small paddocks to the rear.
Converted from disused barns in 2008/09, the two holiday cottages, The Byre and The Hayloft, have both been accredited with a 5* Rating and this is immediately evident when
one enters the properties. The thought which has gone into the décor and the standard of fixtures and fittings are in balance with the many character features highlighted by the
conversion. Again in keeping with the original Farmhouse, York stone floor, wood burning stoves and en-suite facilities sit in harmony with the expose stone walls, woodwork, door-
height windows and stables doors of the original buildings. Each benefits from gardens, summerhouse and ample parking. The number of repeat bookings after such a short time
is testament to the popularity of these cottages.
Although away from other properties, a situation which is no doubt appealing to many, Low Waupley is still within easy driving distance of local villages with all their amenities,
including Easington which is 4 miles away, whilst the larger towns of Whitby and Guisborough and indeed the large conurbation of Teesside, are again within comfortable driving
distance.
These, however, are merely a small added benefit to the appeal of this property. The moors with their haunting beauty and many exhilarating walks on the doorstep, the
renowned Esk Valley, magnificent cliffs and beaches of the Heritage Coast are all close by and there really are few places to match this property in an area of many great
properties.
