Location

Located within the picturesque rural hamlet of Pool Bank, on the fringes of the Lakeland villages of Boland Bridge, Crosthwaite and Witherslack, Delph Cottage lies at the foot of Whitbarrow Scar and is surrounded by delightful views with walks and footpaths from your front door. All three villages have excellent pubs, all within walking distance or within a short drive.  In addition, Witherslack has a community village store, two community halls, a Church, primary school and the family friendly Derby Arms public house and restaurant. A short drive away is the A590 allowing access links to the South Lakes and Furness Peninsula. The M6 motorway is approximately a 15 minute drive away.

Description

Dating back to 1733, Delph Cottage is a beautifully converted former farm building that exudes character and charm. This stunning family home retains original features like exposed timber beams, trusses, deep-set windows, and lovely stone walls, all while incorporating modern décor and high-quality fixtures. The result is a harmonious blend of historic charm and contemporary living, making it an ideal sanctuary in a tranquil setting.

Upon entering Delph Cottage, you’re greeted by a welcoming hallway with solid oak flooring. This inviting space leads to three bedrooms, a bathroom, a utility cupboard, and additional storage beneath the stairs. The spacious master bedroom, occupying the full width of the front of the house, showcases an exposed stone wall with a charming recessed alcove and a feature panelled wall. This beautiful room also includes a stylish en-suite shower room featuring a corner enclosure with a rainfall shower, a WC, and a wash hand basin with vanity storage underneath. 

Continuing down the hall, you'll find two additional bedrooms: a generous double room and a spacious single, both offering ample space for freestanding wardrobes and drawers. The family bathroom is designed for comfort, featuring a bath with a stylish tiled splashback, a WC, and a pedestal wash hand basin. Completing the layout, the utility room includes a fitted worktop along with space and plumbing for a washing machine and dryer.

Stairs from the hallway lead up to a spacious, open-plan living area and kitchen that boasts an impressive vaulted ceiling with original oak beams and trusses. The stunning Wren kitchen with under floor heating is positioned at the front and features a beautiful combination of Cashmere and Winter Blue soft-close solid oak storage cupboards, complemented by a solid oak worktop and a matching breakfast bar. The kitchen is thoughtfully equipped with a double Belfast sink seamlessly integrated into the worktop, a corner larder cupboard, a dishwasher, an integrated bin, and a Belling LPG double oven with a five-burner gas hob.

Adjacent to the stairs, the cosy lounge/diner features a continuation of the solid oak flooring from the ground floor, creating a seamless flow throughout the space. This inviting area centres around a charming wood-burning stove set on a slate hearth. A low-level window offers stunning views across Whitbarrow Scar, allowing you to enjoy the beauty of the surrounding landscape while relaxing in this delightful area.  To the front there are wonderful views over the Winster Valley. 

From the living area, stairs ascend to the mezzanine level, which is currently used as a study, gym and second lounge/snug. This versatile space could easily be converted into a fourth bedroom or serve as an occasional bedroom, providing extra accommodation when needed. Its open design offers a cosy retreat, perfect for relaxation or productivity while maintaining a sense of connection to the living area below.

Outside, at the front of the property, you'll find a generous paved seating area ideal for alfresco dining and relaxation. This outdoor space is complemented by a gravelled parking area that accommodates two to three vehicles. Additionally, there's room for a log store and a convenient Belfast sink with hot and cold taps, along with an electric socket.
