Barn View, Tallentire, Cockermouth

Looking for your dream home? How about a beautiful barn conversion in the exclusive, semi-rural village of Tallentire, close to Cockermouth?

Barn View is a brilliant example of a sympathetic conversion that oozes style and celebrates the space of the original building.. A very modern, detached home, housed in a characterful, Grade 2 listed building, that is both imposing and welcoming.

The current owners have totally reconfigured the internal space, flipping the living space and the bedrooms to create a totally unique, upside-down home, making the most of the features, light and outlook.

The final renovation works have included:

New wall configurations with fresh plaster
Rewiring of electrics and new plumbing
Upgraded heating system, including vintage style, cast iron radiators throughout
Most external windows and all doors replaced
New, glazed front entrance
Upgraded insulation
Landscaping of front garden

The main living area needs to be experienced to be fully appreciated. With a floor area in excess of 70m2, exposed stone walls and substantial roof beams are highlighted thanks to an abundance of natural light. An impressive kitchen area boasts lots of useable storage, stunning black granite worktops and a large island that doubles as an informal eating place. Integrated AEG appliances include an oven, hob, dishwasher, microwave and espresso machine. The adjoining dining room is perfect for more formal family meals and leads to a lovely, glazed front entrance hall that offers direct access to the outside space - perfect for entertaining.

High quality, hardword flooring extends from the kitchen area to a lovely lounge which has a large woodburing stove as it's focal point. The woodburner complements the fully serviced, oil central heating system and thick stone walls and enhanced insulation keep fuel bills quite reasonable. This is confirmed by the attached EPC.

In addition to the main living space, flexibility is added by a separate snug room, a mezzanine floor with lots of storage, and a dedicated office room. These rooms offer the potential for alternative uses, such as a fifth bedroom, occasional guest accommodation or playrooms.

Downstairs, there are four double bedrooms and three, fully-tiled bathrooms. Each of the bedrooms has plenty of space for furniture and two of them have integrated, walk-in wardrobes. With attractive and practical tile flooring throughout, each bedroom also has TV connectivity. The rear entrance hall is a delightful space in itself and the ground floor accommodation is completed by a large utility room.

Externally to the rear, the large driveway provides parking for at least five vehicles, including a caravan or motorhome if required. The front garden has been extensively landscaped to provide a large, attractive lawn with semi-mature shrubs at the boundaries. Additional vehicle access is also available to this area, and uninterrupted views across the nearby countryside enhance the already exceptional feel to this extraordinary property.
