School House in Arncliffe is an impressive former school that the current owners have sympathetically and lovingly converted and extended into a beautiful home.
Arncliffe is a picturesque village in the Littondale valley. It is situated perfectly for scenic walks, cycling and fly fishing. The village also has a village hall, and pub with accommodation. Extensive amenities can be found in Grassington 7 miles away while there are larger stores and supermarkets in Skipton 14 miles to the south and Settle 15 miles to the north. Both the TV soap opera Emmerdale and the TV series All Creatures Great and Small were filmed here.
School House was originally built in the 1800's, as the school expanded the extension was done in the 1980's with a steel frame and ran as a primary school until it closed its doors. The current owners bought it in 2012 from Bradford Diocese and converted the building. The double garage was constructed in 2021.
The property has been lovingly converted and extended but still retains many of its original features such as stone archways, and beautiful stone window surrounds. The property offers an abundance of storage and is an exceptional entertaining space. It benefits from oil central heating and is double glazed. On entering the property, you are enveloped in a welcoming feeling from the grand entrance hall with vaulted ceilings.

The utility which is situated in the extended area of the house offers additional storage from the kitchen and has access to the recently added double garage.
On the first floor you are greeted with the mezzanine overlooking the kitchen and entrance hallway allowing you to appreciate the beauty of the property. From the mezzanine you come to two further double bedrooms and a shower room.
Externally, School House keeps its charm as a former school with the painted playground areas. It has a beautiful lawned area with mature trees and ample seating areas to enjoy all the outside space the property has to offer.
