PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
Lamb Paddock offers an exciting opportunity to acquire a rural smallholding in an elevated position overlooking the Yorkshire Dales National Park. At the heart of the property lies a traditional, four-bedroom stone-built farmhouse which requires updating. The outbuildings comprise a small number of traditional stone-built buildings which offer scope for redevelopment, subject to the local planning consents. All buildings require structural repairs, but they offer scope to create a rural enterprise, ancillary to the agricultural land.

Lamb Paddock is accessed via a hardcore track taken directly off the roadside. The property needs complete renovation and modernisation; however, the sale of the property provides a blank canvas for potential purchasers who are looking for a new rural lifestyle in a scenic and sought after location, offering close connections to the idyllic towns of Sedbergh and Hawes.
