Gelt Road,Brampton,CA8 1QA

Every Room Refined, Every Detail Considered. From herringbone floors and a roll top bath to a mature garden that feels like a miniature country estate, this thoughtfully updated family home balances craft, comfort and calm in all the right ways. Property ref: KD0516

There’s something incredibly satisfying about a period property that’s been updated properly. Where the changes don’t just tick boxes, but make your day-to-day that bit easier, more comfortable and more enjoyable. This is one of those rare homes.

Set on the highly sought-after Gelt Road, this handsome double-fronted house has been given a meticulous top-to-bottom update - with a clear eye for detail and a love for quality that shines through in every room.

The three reception rooms are warm, generous and full of character. 

Think solid oak herringbone floors underfoot, restored sash windows and a Stovax wood-burning stove framed by local sandstone in the bay-fronted lounge. It's the sort of room that makes you want to light the fire and slow down.

Next door, the kitchen really delivers. It’s been recently updated with solid oak shaker units, solid oak worktops, and high-spec NEFF appliances including twin ovens, an induction hob, fridge, dishwasher and an extractor hood. 

There’s underfloor heating, too, plus a proper pantry cupboard.

Off the kitchen, a separate breakfast room makes for a lovely day-to-day dining space, and there’s a new utility with an integrated larder freezer just off the hallway.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms and a separate study - perfect if you need dedicated work-from-home space. 

The family bathroom has been thoughtfully relocated and completely re-fitted with a gorgeous freestanding roll top bath, a large walk-in shower and modern fittings throughout.

Throughout the first floor, you’ll spot soft Herdwick wool carpets, a nod to local craftsmanship that adds texture and warmth. And don’t miss the beautiful original stained glass window as you head up the stairs - a lovely character touch that’s been carefully preserved.

Behind the scenes, it’s all been future-proofed. There’s a new combi boiler, heritage-style radiators, loads of added insulation (including to floors, walls, ceilings and loft), seamless aluminium guttering, and even a new roof with restored stone ridges and leadwork.

But what really seals the deal is the beautiful back garden.

You’ll find an unexpectedly large, mature space with different areas to explore - several seating zones, a pond, raised vegetable beds and a detached garage. 

Whether you’ve got young children, a creative streak, or simply love to potter, this garden gives you plenty to keep you occupied.

And all of this is within walking distance of Brampton town centre, with a range of shops, pubs and places to eat.

If you’re looking for more choice, it’s only around 20 minutes in the car to Carlisle. If you wanted to leave the car at home there is a station (on the Newcastle to Carlisle line) that’s about a mile out of town.

Being a family-friendly home it’s reassuring to know that the local primary school is rated “Good” by Ofsted. It's only a 5 minute drive or less than a 20 minute walk away - and a similar distance to the popular William Howard School for older kids.

This is a house with depth, detail and warmth. A proper family home, ready for its next chapter.
