A 19th century former mill building in North Yorkshire has been placed on the market for £850,000.

Bobbin Mill Cottage, located in the village of Glasshouses near Harrogate, was part of a traditional Nidderdale mill complex before the original mill was demolished in the 1920s.

The property, which is listed by Carter Jonas, includes a four-bedroom cottage and a two-bedroom detached annexe.

The cottage is described as having a "stunning setting" and "fabulous views" by the estate agents.

It is said to have been used as a trout farm in the past, exploiting the abundance of natural spring water in the area.

The estate agents also highlight the property's gardens, which include ornamental lawns, seating areas, and floral beds stretching around the north east bank of the millpond, offering tranquil spaces to relax.

There is also a substantial detached barn with new windows, lighting, and power, reportedly offering further development opportunities.

Estate agents note that the privacy of Bobbin Mill Cottage is protected by the millpond and perimeter woods, which belong to the neighbouring property.

They also mention that the location is ideal for those seeking a combination of privacy and ease of access to facilities in Pateley Bridge and major commercial centres of West and North Yorkshire.
