Bell Hill Farmhouse, Littledale, LA2 9EU

Bell Hill Farmhouse stands in a picturesque elevated position, surrounded by open countryside and enjoys stunning far reaching views across the Lune Valley to the north and Clougha to the south. Grade II Listed, this stone and slate former farmhouse offers huge scope for a complete refurbishment.

Dating back to c. 18th century with 17th Century remains, original feature remains with mullion chamfered windows to the front elevation, a doorway with moulded surround, stone fireplace and flag floor in the sitting room, ceiling beams, oak six panel and tongue and bead doors with Suffolk latches, vaulted cellar room and oak staircase.

The property has been tenanted for several years and has a modern kitchen and bathroom but there is excellent potential for the next custodians to upgrade the current accommodation.

With a gross internal measurement of c. 1931 sq ft (179.4 sq m) to include the cellar, the spacious accommodation is set over three floors with a sociable flow to the ground floor.
