West Garth, Burgh-By-Sands, Carlisle, CA5 6BT

West Garth sits in a fantastic position within the village, in a plot measuring a third of an acre. Over the last twelve years, the property has been well cared for and extensively updated and modernised by the current owners but retains its charm and character throughout.

A sweeping gravel driveway, lined with mature plants, leads you to this striking, three floor, stone built property. You enter via the living / dining room which runs the full width of the front elevation. This space is cosy yet spacious with a beautiful log burning stove, with sandstone surround, as the focal point. The dining end of the room could accommodate a table that would comfortably sit 10 people.

A blend of Country style checked carpet, exposed beams, and beautiful joinery enhance the cottage feel including a bespoke, solid oak, arched top door into the rest of the property. Bespoke
plantation style window shutters have been fitted across the front elevation.

The Kitchen boasts bespoke, solid wooden units, large larder cupboard and beautiful granite tops. An extra large AGA acts as the centrepiece of the kitchen and includes the traditional cooking tops plus a gas hob and 4 ovens, including a warming oven. This system also works seamlessly with the AGA intelligent management system, allowing you to operate the unit with a remote operated timer. The kitchen is finished in a shaker style and blends perfectly with the tile splashback and exposed stonework. There is space for a table that comfortably fits four people, located next to French doors which provide access to the patio area and garden. The dishwasher and fridge are integrated into custom units. A useful utility / cool room is also located across the hallway for additional storage. Space for a large double fridge freezer also provides additional food storage. The traditional sandstone shelving and stone floors match beautifully with the large Belfast sink.

At the rear of the property sits the Lounge. This relaxing space offers views of the garden and is joined to the conservatory making it a great place to socialise with friends and family. The log burning stove also makes it a room well suited to relax and enjoy a good film in the colder months. A small hallway connects the lounge to the kitchen, offering a downstairs cloakroom and side door providing access to the log store. Ceramic floor tiles run through this space making is brilliantly practical and hard wearing.

On the first floor you will find four double bedrooms including, what is currently used as, the primary bedroom. This room offers lots of natural light thanks to large windows and views of the garden. The walk through dressing area results in more space in the bedroom. A well fitted ensuite bathroom also adds the suite like feel of this space. All bedrooms are well finished and tastefully styled. A family bathroom is also located on this floor with bath with over shower and custom vanity storage. On the top floor, added by the current owners, is an additional bedroom. This generous room is full of characterwith exposed beams and vaulted ceilings. A spacious en suite bathroom adds a touch of luxury and benefits from a full bathroom suite including walk in shower and separate bath.

OUTSIDE

Westgarth sits in a third of an acre plot but feels much bigger. A lawn area sits to the front, flanked with mature bushes and a winding gravel driveway with gated entrance. Parking is plentiful and access to the garage is available from here. To the rear of the property the property benefits from a sheltered patio area for alfresco dining and a large area covered in artificial grass for a clean, low maintenance garden. Real grass areas and mature plants line the boundary, and a dedicated growing area is positioned in the back corner offering two raised beds plus a greenhouse. Mature fruit trees also provide further produce. This area is well screened from the main garden. A wooden shed is in the opposite corner which has previously been used as a dog kennel with outside run. This could easily be converted into a variety of different uses thanks to an electricity supply being present here. Joined onto the property are two outbuildings, both with electricity.
