Inside the six-year transformation of Gower Hall Barn near Castle Howard

Hidden behind a tree-lined drive on the edge of the Howardian Hills, Gower Hall Barn is a quadrangle of late eighteenth and early nineteenth century stone farm buildings converted into a unique family home.

The property, painstakingly restored over almost six years, retains its original footprint and many of its defining architectural features, including exposed oak beams, roof trusses and stonework, while introducing high-quality modern interiors throughout.

At its heart is a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living room with handmade cabinetry, leathered granite worktops and doors opening onto both the landscaped courtyard and surrounding gardens. A striking 70ft oak and glass gallery links the principal living spaces, creating one of the home's standout features.

The accommodation includes five en suite bedrooms, with the principal suite occupying the entire first floor alongside a dressing room and luxurious bathroom. There are also elegant reception rooms, a media room, gym and home office, while a self-contained annexe with holiday-let consent offers flexibility for guests or multi-generational living.

Outside, the property sits within around 3.5 acres of gardens and paddock with views across the Howardian Hills, a short distance from Castle Howard and around 20 minutes from York.
