Description
Situated in the peaceful and picturesque village of Blencow, just outside Penrith, Ennim Lodge is a charming and well-presented two-bedroom detached bungalow, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a home with generous internal space and extensive gardens of approximately 0.5 acres. Neighboring the former home of Deputy Prime Minister Willie Whitelaw, this property enjoys a unique setting steeped in local history and surrounded by open Cumbrian countryside.
Internally, the property offers well-proportioned and flexible accommodation, comprising a bright and spacious kitchen and dining area, two good-sized bedrooms, a comfortable reception room with bay window, a modern bathroom, and a utility area. The total internal floor area of the main house is approximately 89 square meters (958 sq ft), with an additional 27 square meters (291 sq ft) of outbuildings including a large detached shed, ideal for storage, workshop space or further development potential subject to the necessary permissions.
The grounds surrounding Ennim Lodge are a true highlight, extending to around half an acre. These generous gardens offer privacy, open views, and excellent potential for landscaping, outdoor living, or even extending the property. Off-road parking is available, and a newly installed air source heat pump ensures efficient, sustainable heating. The property benefits from mains electricity and private drainage.
