Linstock, Carlisle, CA6 4PZ

Curb appeal is present in bucket loads at this quintessential country cottage. It is exactly what you would picture as a roses around the door, chocolate box cottage. Fern Lea is a charming property brimming with oodles of character that has been admired from afar for many years. QUOTE HG0498

This is a rare opportunity to add your own stamp to a beautiful Grade II listed cottage, nestled within pretty gardens, with the benefit of an adjoining paddock, in a peaceful village. The property would benefit from modernisation to enable it to shine even brighter.

Enter through the gate onto a drive way and well kept gardens and you cant help but feel excited about this property. If you can tear yourself away from the attractive frontage and go inside you will see the potential it has to offer. At present the lounge and dining room are separated by the chimney breast. From the dining room there is a lovely bright sunroom, stairs leading to the first floor and a door to the hallway where you will find the dining kitchen, utility room and bathroom.

One the first floor there are three double bedrooms and a handy WC.

If you love properties with individuality, and have vision to add those personal touches, then this is a must view for you.

Fern lea is offered for sale with the benefit of the adjoining plot of land (held under separate Title) which offers considerable additional opportunities for developing the cottage, the garden or providing a paddock area. The plot has direct access from the public road as well as a wicket gate from Fern Lea and although is currently grazed by a local farmer, will be sold with vacant possession. The plot also offers a considerable residential development opportunity for the future.
