Peek inside this idyllic four-bedroom farmhouse near the Victorian spa town of Harrogate, with original wooden beams, a beautiful dining space, and glorious gardens in a tranquil countryside setting.
The renovated 17th century hillside property, located close to the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, could be all yours - for free.
It's the latest Million Pound House Draw by Omaze, with no stamp duty, mortgage or conveyancing fees to pay, plus the lucky winner will get £100,000 in cash to help with running costs and maintenance.
When you step inside the charming North Yorkshire property - valued at £1.925 million - you are greeted with a harmonious blend of original features (beams, timber floors and other architectural details encompassing the original stone work) combined with modern luxuries. In all, the interiors perfectly balance contemporary style with historical character.

There's a dedicated breakfast and dining room, and the sizeable kitchen is complete with a central island, a very useful cast iron hanging rack for pots and pans, white cabinets, a black Aga cooker, and rustic York stone floors. We're particularly fond of the dining room with table and bench seating, offering ample room for hosting dinner parties, and it offers spectacular views out into the garden too.
One of our favourite areas of the house is the garden room, which benefits from an abundance of natural light and is an ideal spot to lounge or enjoy a good book whilst being within touching distance of nature.
Other highlights include the cosy sitting room with a traditional fireplace (perfect for chilly, winter evenings), and the main bedroom upstairs with an ensuite and dressing room. FYI: all furnishings are included too.
The property also comes with an annexe; a former granary converted into a two storey, one-bedroom guest cottage.

While the interiors are no doubt impressive, the garden is truly a sight to behold. There's a lovely seating area at the front of the property, which is a prime spot for admiring the breathtaking views across the neighbouring valley, and the front and rear gardens provide ample space for alfresco dining, picnics, barbecues, summer parties and the like.
This property is actually perfect for gardeners and we're sure the potting shed will go down a treat. There's five acres of manicured grounds and gardens here, yet there's still a natural sense of privacy. A raised terrace leads down to the south-facing mature gardens which are bordered by manicured hedges and beds, whilst a yew parterre leads down to the lower lawn.
The winner can decide to either live in the house, rent it out or sell it. If renting, local estate agents estimate that the property could achieve an annual rental value of almost £50,000.
Best of all, the prize draw is for a good cause, raising crucial funds for Blood Cancer UK. The campaign is backed by Olivier Award winning actress and BCUK supporter, Celia Imrie, who has been involved with the charity since appearing in the film, Calendar Girls, 20 years ago this September.
The Omaze Million Pound House Draw, Yorkshire closes on 30th July 2023 for online entries (paid entries start from just £10) and 1st August 2023 for postal entries (free). For full terms and conditions, visit www.omaze.co.uk.
