Moat Farm, Aldingham, Ulverston

Wow! A traditional detached farmhouse, bearing a date stamp of 1737 and constructed of stone and with a slate roof (apparently re-roofed in 2010). Situated on the Coast Road near Aldingham between Ulverston and Barrow-in-Furness and with its own private access to a secluded beach.

The farmhouse has excellent living accommodation comprising an entrance hallway with a slate effect floor which gives access to the Music Room and Morning Room (both with fireplaces), the Living Room which has a wood burner style fire, farmhouse style Kitchen, Utility Room, Cloakroom and access to the rear to the well established orchard (approx one third of an acre). There is an attached Annexe which contains two separate rooms (one currently used as a store room) and both of which have power and water. It is ideal for conversion (subject to PP) to a granny annexe or accommodation for a disabled person or as a holiday let. Also perfect as a studio or back to their original use as stables!

The stairs lead from entrance hallway to the upstairs landing which leads to six generous sized double bedrooms - those at the rear of the house have an amazing sea view and those to the front have views of the open fields. Two of the bedrooms have en-suite showers rooms and one bedroom has a fireplace. There is also a family bathroom.

The farmhouse is set in mature garden with dry stone walling surrounding the front garden and a courtyard area to the side of the Annexe which has parking for several cars. There is a small gate leading from the garden to the rear orchard, which has well established fruit trees. There is a well maintained grassed track leading to the private beach.

This beautiful property is a real "one-off" and is perfect for a larger family or those with dependent relatives. It is a real "lifestyle choice" home and perfect for those who enjoy the countryside, nature and the coastal location but who also enjoy the sheer space that this property has to offer both with living accommodation and garden area.

We highly recommend that you view this property as soon as you can!
