Description

Set against a backdrop of unspoilt countryside views to both the front and rear, this charming home in peaceful Cumbria offers a rare opportunity to enjoy rural living with huge potential. Whether you’re seeking a holiday home, a characterful Airbnb or a place to put down roots, this unique property offers versatility, warmth and endless scope for personalisation in this dorma detached property.

The home has an entrance porch which leads into a  welcoming open-plan lounge and dining space – the heart of the house – where exposed beams and a feature log burner bring both character and comfort. This inviting room is perfect for relaxing evenings or hosting friends, with a layout that lends itself beautifully to cosy seating and dining zones. The countryside setting filters in through the windows, offering glimpses of rolling fields from both sides of the property.

The kitchen is practical and neutrally styled, ready for modernisation to suit your tastes.  Just off the kitchen is a utility room, a ground floor WC, and a separate family bathroom with shower – ideal for guests or everyday convenience. The ground floor also includes a bedroom that could double as a snug, study or guest space, offering flexibility to suit your lifestyle.

Upstairs, you’ll find more character features with sloped ceilings, original timbers and exposed beams adding to the property's charm with the bedrooms in the dorma space. The spacious landing is more than just a corridor – it’s a room in itself, perfect as a home office, reading nook or creative studio. Two further rooms are on offer up here, including an attic-style space as an artist's studio. This upper room could offer cosy accommodation for family, friends or visitors. An additional WC on the upper floor adds extra day-to-day practicality.

The property offers an idyllic garden which is split across two levels and with an elevated lawn at the rear, it makes the most of the far-reaching views over fields and open countryside. It’s a peaceful, private space with huge potential for landscaping or outdoor dining. A detached garage sits to the side, providing useful storage or potential workshop space.

With a little imagination and some modernisation, this one-of-a-kind home could become something truly special – a peaceful permanent residence, a weekend bolthole, or a character-packed holiday let in one of the most scenic corners of north-west Cumbria. Set in peaceful surroundings, with country walks on your doorstep, and low traffic – this is an ideal place to unwind, raise a family or host holiday guests looking for a tranquil escape.

Situated on the outskirts of a small, quiet village in north-west Cumbria, just a short drive from the Solway Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and within easy reach of market towns such as Wigton and Aspatria. The nearby beaches of Allonby and Mawbray offer peaceful seafront walks, while the northern Lake District fells are just a scenic drive away.  It’s perfectly placed for enjoying both coast and countryside. Wigton and Aspatria are nearby for everyday amenities, schools and transport links. Also within easy reach of the M6 to Carlisle.

The property is serviced by LPG gas.  The property is on mains water (without a metre). A septic tank services this property and the neighbouring houses. The tank itself is located in a neighbouring property with a Deed of Easement in place.
