A rare opportunity to acquire this incredible and historic country home with annexe, 7 acres, countryside views, and 2-bedroom annexe. This property will make a wonderful family home or may be suitable for alternative uses and arrangements (subject to any consents).

Welcome to Capon Hall, believed to be formerly part of the Fountains Abbey Estate, with origins back to the 11th century. This impressive property features:

Sympathetically restored period house with 5 bedrooms (3 en-suites)

Detached 2-bedroom barn annexe - ideal family or holiday use (STC)

Approx. 7 acres of gardens, paddocks and pasture with stream-fed pond

Two large agricultural barns with power/water - versatile for storage, livestock or redevelopment

The House:
Approached via a private driveway with expansive block-paved parking, the main house offers generous reception rooms, a farmhouse-style kitchen with Aga and pantry, and a homely sitting room centred on the Inglenook with original bread ovens. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, three with en-suites, and a large family bathroom, all enjoying spectacular rural views.

Capon Hall Barn:
Converted in 2001, the detached barn annexe provides additional accommodation - ideal for extended family or holiday use (subject to consents). It features a lounge with fireplace, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom, with exposed beams and countryside vistas.

Grounds & Outbuildings:
The gardens extend to around 7 acres of lawns, paddocks and pasture, interspersed with mature trees, wildflowers and a stream-fed pond. Outdoor living is a delight, with panoramic views, sheltered patios and scope for smallholding or equestrian pursuits. Two large agricultural barns with power, water and vehicular access offer extensive storage or redevelopment potential.
Location
Nestled in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, Capon Hall enjoys an enviable setting amid some of the region's most celebrated landscapes. Just a short distance away lies Malham Cove, famously featured in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, while the surrounding fells and valleys offer endless opportunities for walking, running, cycling and hiking. In addition to the idyllic rural backdrop, the property is well placed for education, with highly regarded local schools in the Skipton and Settle direction, together with the renowned Giggleswick independent school, all within easy reach.
