1 HOLME HEAD HOUSE 650,000 Ingleton, LA6 3ET A great family home. Classically good looking, an impressive detached house dating back to around 1830 standing well in an edge of village setting with good views of the viaduct with Ingleborough rising majestically in the background. Plenty of room for a growing family with a big living kitchen, four reception rooms, four bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms backed up by a range of cellars for excellent storage and a great converted and upgraded attic room. Gardens of c acres (0.37 hectares) providing great space for rest and relaxation with a walled kitchen garden enjoying a great view over the village.

2 Welcome to HOLME HEAD HOUSE 650,000 Ingleton, LA6 3ET It would be hard not to praise Holme Head House. If you are looking for a good all round family house then it's going to tick the majority of boxes. Let's see 1. Space sq m or 4155 sq ft in old money 2. Space to live - four bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms 3. Space for family and entertaining friends - a lovely big living kitchen off which is a garden room and a sitting room 4. Space to work - there's a dedicated study room on the ground floor, but if you need more room or crave peace and quiet then think of the attic floor (818 sq ft) 5. Space to play - the attic room is currently used for visiting grandchildren to sleep and as a playroom but it's a real "anything" space - office, cinema room, hobbies room (train set, Scalextric track or sewing machine), music room (the perfect place for the teenage drum kit or the midlife vinyl collection!) or gym 6. Space to store - it's not often we get to enthuse about cellars but here we offer you a good traditional range - stone steps down, a hallway and three rooms - flagged floors, slate benches and shelves. There's power and light in all three rooms. 7. Great character - amongst all the lovely features are two marble fireplaces in the sitting and dining rooms, two of the bedrooms have feature cast iron fireplaces, ceiling coving, panelled doors, an elegant staircase and a beautiful tall landing window which is visible from the staircases going down to the cellar and up to the second floor. The red and blue glass is magical when the sun streams through 8. 21st century living - double glazing, central heating and B4RN broadband 9. Quality appointments - the kitchen (cream shaker style units with black granite worktops) and utility room (both from well regarded kitchen designers and installers H&M Craftsmen in Ingleton), study, bathroom, shower room and one of the bedrooms all have fitted furniture

to Ingleborough all from the bench in the garden!

It gets the afternoon and evening sun and is a real little haven. There's a woodland banking which would be perfect for hide and seek and making dens and the walled garden is an absolutely delight.

Perfect for the avid gardener or for encouraging young children to learn about where their food comes from.

5 A family friendly garden The enclosed gardens are great for children and dogs with plenty of space for games and adventures. The lawn behind the house was made for sledging on a snowy day and the view from the seat around the ash tree is breath-taking as your eyes wander above the roof tops to the viaduct and then upwards to Ingleborough all from the bench in the garden! The flagged terrace at the back of the house is sheltered and private so sitting here for an afternoon cup of tea or a table laid out for a summer weekend lunch will be heaven. It gets the afternoon and evening sun and is a real little haven. There's a woodland banking which would be perfect for hide and seek and making dens and the walled garden is an absolutely delight. Push open the door and you enter a secret space, not visible from the house with stone outhouse, greenhouse, slate edged vegetable and herb beds, soft fruit and a central lawn with apple trees. Perfect for the avid gardener or for encouraging young children to learn about where their food comes from. The ample driveway is gated from the road with plenty of room for family and friends to park and turn off road. There's also the double garage which has an integral door into the house so if you're arriving home when it's wet to unload the shopping or with a sleeping baby you can do it all without getting cold and wet. Location and directions Travelling from Kirkby Lonsdale along the A65 towards Ingleton and before reaching the village turn left just opposite Country Harvest and follow the road. Holme Head House is the first house on the right. We're big fans of Ingleton here in the office, not just because of what it offers but also because of where it is. We're a big fan of Top Ten as well so here goes (we'll let you decide on the best order!): 1. The Ingleton Waterfalls Walk with woodland gorges and spectacular waterfalls - free access to all residents and the unique open air swimming pool (open May to September) 2. An integral part of village life - a primary school and a church are right in the heart of the village, there's also a local doctor's surgery 3. Secondary school age children have a choice - QES in Kirkby Lonsdale, Settle College in Settle or there's Sedbergh or Giggleswick independent schools 4. Two Co-op general stores as well as award winning Seasons bakery and Country Harvest with its great deli counter 5. Petrol filling station with a car wash 6. Pharmacy, newsagents and a selection of shops including an artisan pottery and a small garden centre 7. Good places to eat - from platters at The Old Post Office to tapas, Italian, Indian (eat in, take away or have delivered), fish and chips and a variety of pubs to work your way around! 8. Explore the great outdoors - a host of walks and cycle rides right from the doorstep - the famous Three Peaks and the Pennine Way which passes close by. Great access to White Scar Caves (Britain's longest show cave) for the more adventurous 9. The Yorkshire Dales, the Lake District and the AONB' s of the Forest of Bowland and Silverdale and Arnside are perfect for a day trip 10. There's always lots to do locally with a series of events throughout the year from the Easter Egg Hunt to the Overground Underground Festival, Operation Homeguard (a 1940s weekend), a summer gala and an autumn folk festival
