DESCRIPTION Hallbeck is an attractive, detached home in a truly spectacular location with stunning scenery located in Beckermonds, Langstrothdale in Upper Wharfedale.

Beckermonds is just 6 miles from the bustling market town of Hawes and 23 miles to Skipton. The quaint Wharfedale villages of Buckden and Hubberholme are both within a few miles with Kettlewell slightly further away. Hawes has an excellent range of shops, pubs and tearooms. It also has a doctors surgery, primary school, bank and Church. Buckden and Kettlewell also have a good range of amenities, all with a friendly sense of community and beautiful walks on the doorstep.

Beckermonds means the 'merging of becks', one of which flows past Hallbeck, but the house sits well up above it and is able to enjoy its river frontage. Much of Langstrothdale is National Trust land, meaning there is an abundance of wildlife including red squirrels and birds of prey. There are great walking and cycling routes in every direction, including a spectacular cycle over Fleet Moss to Hawes. The Dalesway foot path follows the river to two great pubs, The George at Hubberholme (J.B. Priestley's favourite 'watering hole') and The White Lion at Cray.

The property was built in 1979 and has recently been updated by the current vendors. They have fully modernised the property, with works including replacement hardwood, triple glazed windows, garage doors, re pointing, new oil fired central heating system with two zones, refitted kitchen and utility, new bathroom and en-suites, lighting system and re-decoration throughout. The accommodation is spacious, split over two floors. On the ground floor is an entrance hall with cloakroom leading through to a reception room where there is a 'Morso' wood burning stove. There is a large sitting room with lovely views, and a third reception room which is currently used as a music room. The kitchen is modern and has an oak breakfast bar. There is a separate utility/boot room, which has an integral door that leads to the double garage where the utilities are kept.

Upstairs are four bedrooms, the principal room having an en-suite shower room and separate WC, there are also two windows with glorious views to both the front and rear. There are a further two double bedrooms to the rear, both with a lovely outlook over the garden to the open countryside. The fourth bedroom is a single room which would make a great home office if required, this too has views to the front. There is also a modern family bathroom.

Externally, is a double garage and ample parking for three to four vehicles. The grounds have been sympathetically landscaped to support conservation priorities and harmonise with the wildlife setting. There is an enclosed garden to the rear with wild flower lawn, raised beds and gravel patio areas. To the front is a lovely East facing lawned garden, with dry stone wall boundary. There is an additional garden located at the far side of the lane which stretches down to the riverside, benefitting from fishing rights and commanding lovely views.

Hallbeck is a superb property in a rural yet accessible location within the Yorkshire Dales National Park. An ideal family, holiday or active retirement home. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the beauty and quality of the property.
