The main property is complimented by a very flexible detached building which was formally a dairy barn and has been converted to provide a self-contained annexe formally used as an office and for entertaining, yet having obvious scope for use by a relative or other uses again subject to receipt of the necessary consents. Oil fired central heating is connected in separate systems to the main house and to the barn, plus there is double glazing throughout including double glazed sash windows predominantly in the main house.

Paddock house is one of only a few detached houses in this most attractive and sought after village. Studley Roger is a much sought-after small hamlet on the edge of the famous Studley Royal Deer Park and the breathtaking ruins of Fountains Abbey which is a world heritage site. These historically important attractions are within very easy reach and therefore the individual homes in this small hamlet rarely come to the market. The property's location is also highly convenient, within two miles of Ripon's centre, a historic Cathedral city which is well served by shops, supermarkets, restaurants and bars along with a weekly market and extensive leisure facilities. There are primary schools nearby in Ripon and surrounding villages, along with secondary education at the highly regarded Ripon Grammar School. The Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Yorkshire Dales and Moors are all located nearby, plus the fashionable Spa town of Harrogate and cities of Leeds and York. For the commuter the A1 is within easy reach and provides access to the key business centres and motorway network of Yorkshire and Teesside, along with mainline rail links to London Kings Cross from York and Thirsk.
