A BUSTLING TOWN dating back to ancient times
You can’t deny the magnificent location of Masham; a picturesque Wensleydale market town often described as one of the best places to live in North Yorkshire. Green open spaces, leisurely walks, horse riding and cycling, and all just a stone’s throw from Niddersdale AONB, the Yorkshire Dales National Park and the Yorkshire Moors.
This lovely market town enjoys an interesting history, and whilst the Romans had a presence here, the first permanent settlers were the Angles.
The town has a thriving traditional market, plus a monthly farmers market and its first market charter hails back to in 1251. The present St Mary’s Church is mainly Norman with fifteenth century additions yet dates back to the seventh century.
At Oakland Park everything you need is on your doorstep, as the town enjoys an abundance of charming independent
shops and eateries that line its bustling streets - and you will be sure of a warm welcome and a friendly smile wherever you go. The town is a creative hub and boasts a number of galleries with a thriving artists community. Continuing with the art theme, every year hundreds of swifts arrive here from Africa and herald the arrival of summer and to celebrate this influx, Masham has its own swift sculpture trail.
And when you want an evening off from the cooking, or just want a ‘spur of the moment’ evening out, there is a plentiful choice of pubs, cafes, and restaurants.
Close by you’ll find the historic Masham Golf Club with its beautiful 9-hole parkland course, dissected by the River Burn. The course was a well-known favourite of singer, Bing Crosby, and has been visited by the likes of legendary golfer, Peter Alliss.
FAMED FOR.... Beer
FAMED FOR.... Sheep!
Thetown is perhaps most well known for its two, very popular breweries. Theakstons Brewery is the original company, founded in 1827 and producing its legendary, iconic Old Peculier beer that is sold around the world. Theakstons Brewery was sold to a national brewers in 1992 and fifth generation brewer, Paul Theakston chose to set up a new company, Black Sheep Brewery.
Masham is also famed for it’s sheep farming, and hosts an annual event to shout far and wide to keep it’s history alive. The town originally developed due to mining, milling, cloth making and leather tanning. However it’s importance as a major sheep market helped the town to thrive and its large market place is now host to Masham’s local markets.

Your kitchen is the heart of the home and our fully fitted kitchens include integrated Bosch appliances as standard, with a fabulous choice of designer kitchen styles. Our bathrooms feature beautiful sanitaryware from luxury brand Villeroy and Boch and showers from Hansgrohe that perfectly complement the Porcelanosa tiling.

A SUPERB SPECIFICATION included as standard
Once you step into a Stonebridge home, it’s immediately apparent that our houses are light and airy, reducing the need for artificial light.
Our hallways are welcoming with solid oak newel posts and handrails, with complementary white spindles. Sitting rooms are comfortable and offer the perfect place to relax and unwind after a busy day.
Designer kitchens will not fail to impress, with both traditional and contemporary choices from the renowned Symphony Gallery range. The majority of house types have a useful utility room.
Bedrooms are sophisticated and designed to maximise space with room for fitted Hammonds wardrobes that are available as an upgrade.
All house types have either one or two ensuite shower rooms.
And the outside will not leave you disappointed either. French / bi-fold doors open out onto the rear, turfed, garden to take the inside, out. Our gardens offer privacy with boarded fencing, paved patio and pathways, and all have an outdoor tap included as standard. We have thought of everything.
SUSTAINABILITY we take ourseriouslyresponsibilities
There are so many reasons to consider investing in a new build property, not least for its reduced impact on the environment and its green credentials.
Due to the advanced build materials used, new build homes are much more thermally efficient and airtight. We fit modern, double glazed windows that are highly efficient in terms of insulation that reduces heat loss and saves on energy usage.
And it is not just a positive effect on the environment that a new home affords. According to new-homes.co.uk, new build can have a positive impact on your finances too with an estimated yearly saving of £890 on a 3-bedroom new build home, when compared with the energy costs of £1,670 for a Victorian 3-bedroom semi-detached home with some modern improvements.
Stonebridge take climate change seriously. At Oakland Park all properties come with an electric vehicle charging point, at no extra cost. The charging point future proofs your home and allows you to charge your car when it is not in use, in the same way you would a mobile phone.
All our homes are fitted with a security alarm, however, to provide an even greater sense of security, and further enhance your energy efficiency, Stonebridge offer Hive as standard with the option to add on other elements including, CCTV, dimmable lights, and radiator controls.
In addition, all our homes have 100% energy efficient lighting and dual flush toilets.
