Carr House, is located in an elevated position in the Mallerstang Valley.
The Mallerstang valley became part of the extended Yorkshire Dales National Park in 2016 and is a hidden gem with spectacular landscapes and local landmarks such as the Wild Boar Fell and Mallerstang Edge, beautiful bird & wildlife and the recent re-introduction of red squirrels. Primary & Grammar schools are at Kirkby Stephen and Church at the nearby hamlet of Outhgill. Nearby Nateby offers garage services and The Black Bull Inn with accommodation. There are great road and rail links, train stations on the Settle Carlisle at Garsdale and Kirkby Stephen, with links to main lines and road access to the M6 and A66 are within easy reach.
Carr House is an exciting opportunity to develop an off grid home in the Yorkshire Dales. Planning permission has been approved for an extended four bedroom house and the work has been started so the planning cannot lapse.
The ground floor accommodation will have a large kitchen diner, living room, study, WC and utility room. There are also plans for a cellar.
Upstairs, the drawings comprise four double bedrooms, two with ensuites and a family bathroom.
Outside, the grounds are approximately 3/4 of an acre, and could be landscaped to offer plenty of driveway parking and a good size gardens. The long distance views look over Mallerstang and Wild Boar Fell.
The planning permission is subject to a local occupancy agreement, meaning the property can be used for either local occupancy or holiday use only. This an exciting opportunity to take on a self-build in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Off Grid Homes
Off-grid homes exist with no connections to gas or electricity grids. People who live in off-grid households supply their own heat and light from other sources. Some rely on a supply of fossil fuels like coal, gas, and oil, others have built renewable systems involving solar panels, heat pumps, and wind turbines, and many use a mix.
