One of the area's finest residences, a converted barn which has been subject to a massive programme of improvement and extension finished to an exceptional standard together with a three car garage, ample parking and approximately one acre of outstanding lawned gardens and having magnificent views.
For somebody wanting an exceptional family home in an idyllic location, Yarlside Laithe may well prove ideal. It sits surrounded by open countryside and this high quality barn conversion has been subject to a massive programme of improvement and extension by the present owner. Much of the inherent character remains, yet a sympathetic programme of modernisation has now concluded with the construction of a superb high quality dining kitchen; superb bath/shower room; fitted throughout and appointments/decor to the very highest standard. The accommodation is arranged over three storeys with a substantial central living room leading to the aforementioned kitchen together with a guest suite and utility area. To the upper storeys are a total of 5/6 bedrooms, two with en-suite facilities as well as the house bathroom.

There is also a generous provision for electric sockets, television and telephone points throughout, as well as a security system.
The house is approached along a sweeping driveway past the lawned front garden which leads to an outbuilt three berth garage. Above this in the eaves is a further area ripe for conversion subject to the necessary consents. Behind this building is a recently built timber framed utility area with commercial sink, shower, wc etc. Surrounding the house are numerous sitting out areas and there are equally impressive grounds to the rear, ideal for children's games and entertaining.
Set amidst rolling countryside, Yarlside Laithe is convenient for both West Yorkshire and East Lancashire towns and is on the threshold of both the Trough of Bowland and the Yorkshire Dales.
