A superb stone-built period house set in a commanding position overlooking the surrounding countryside, situated in around three and a half acres of land.
Description
Dating back to 1567 with later additions, Slip Inn Farm sits in an elevated position with uninterrupted views across the beautiful surrounding countryside. The charming stone-built period property sits in a plot of around four acres.
Originally a small farmstead, the current owners have substantially increased the property's footprint by adding a double story extension creating an impressive family home.
The property still retains a wealth of period features including exposed wooden beams.
The ground floor features a handcrafted wooden kitchen with oil-fired Aga, space for a kitchen table and ample storage space. There are two reception rooms including a traditional dining room and a particularly generous sitting room with sliding doors opening to a sizeable terrace and giving far reaching views across the open countryside beyond.
Steps lead down to the wine cellar which is a particularly useful storage/ pantry space.
The first floor houses five bedrooms, most notably the principal bedroom suite which enjoys dual aspects. There are four further bedrooms served by a house bathroom and separate shower room.
Externally the property opens onto a lawned garden flanked by well-stocked borders. The garden gives way to a fenced paddock.
There are a number of outbuildings including traditional stone store rooms and a wooden shed which sits on concrete foundations. Plenty of parking is afforded by a gravelled driveway and garage.
Location
The hamlet of Gayles lies in an attractive rural area, making it an ideal base from which to explore the Yorkshire Dales, Teesdale and the North York Moors. Educational opportunities (both comprehensive and private) can be found at Richmond (just over five miles), Northallerton (about 24 miles). Aysgarth Preparatory School, one of the leading prep schools in the North of England is located around 14 miles away.
Richmond (just over five miles) is a thriving Yorkshire Dales market town with a range of shops, restaurants and bars and as the gateway to the Yorkshire Dales, providing unrivalled access to the stunning landscapes of Swaledale and Arkengarthdale famous for wildflower meadows, heather moorland and waterfalls.
The area is also home to some of Yorkshire’s best walking and cycling. Richmond offers a great range of amenities including national and local retailers, swimming pool, cinema, traditional weekly market and a great range of pubs and restaurants and of course the acclaimed Georgian theatre.
The station, a restored Victorian railway station, which features a restaurant, cinema and gallery, is also home to a number of artisan food producers and is a popular attraction.
The town has a number of schools so there are educational opportunities at both primary and secondary level. Richmond plays host to a number of cultural events throughout the year whilst the cities of Durham (about 36 miles), Newcastle (about 49 miles), York (about 53 miles) and Leeds (about 55 miles) are all within reach either by road or train. The A1(M) is around six miles away and the A66 (around two miles) gives access to the Lake District and beyond.

Teesside International airport is about 20 miles distant, with Newcastle International airport being about 54 miles, Leeds Bradford Airport is about 46 miles away.
