WELCOME HOME TO ROSEBANK COTTAGE

Set back gently from the road and surrounded by mature trees, Rosebank Cottage enjoys a wonderfully private position within the sought after village of Tebay. Approached via a quiet track lane, the property reveals itself as a beautifully presented detached home that has been thoughtfully improved by the current owners to create a space that feels both welcoming and practical for modern family life.

A generous driveway provides ample parking for several vehicles and is complemented by a detached garage offering excellent storage. The exterior of the home is immediately striking, finished in crisp white render with elegant Lakeland stone detailing to the porch. This charming addition creates the perfect boot room for country living, complete with quarry tiled flooring and two roof windows that allow natural light to pour in. An electric vehicle charging point has also been installed, adding a practical modern touch.

From the moment you enter the home, there is a sense of warmth and openness. The heart of the property is the beautiful open plan kitchen dining and living space, a room designed for gathering and everyday living. Triple aspect windows fill the space with light throughout the day while framing views of the surrounding countryside and the distant fells beyond. The kitchen itself is finished in a timeless shaker style with soft cream cabinetry and wooden work surfaces, centred around a traditional Belfast sink positioned perfectly to enjoy views across the garden towards Orton Scar. There is a good range of storage alongside an integrated fridge freezer and electric ovens, while the dining and seating area provides ample space for family meals and relaxed evenings by the multi fuel stove set on a stone hearth beneath a wooden lintel. Exposed beams in the dining area add a gentle nod to character and charm.

Leading from the kitchen is a useful utility room, again fitted with a Belfast sink and additional storage, along with space for laundry appliances and housing the Worcester oil fired boiler which runs on a pressurised system providing excellent water pressure throughout the home. A conveniently placed ground floor cloakroom sits just beyond, finished in fresh aqua mosaic tiling. A door from the utility also provides direct access to the garden.

The living room is a beautifully calm and inviting space with windows to multiple aspects that flood the room with natural light. Patio doors open directly onto the front terrace, where glass balustrading and rendered pillars create an attractive raised garden area that enjoys a southwest facing aspect. This peaceful spot is ideal for dining outdoors or simply enjoying the evening sun as it sets beyond the surrounding countryside. Within the living room itself a contemporary bioethanol fire creates a stylish focal point, while the generous proportions allow for comfortable seating and family relaxation.

Upstairs the accommodation continues to impress with four well proportioned bedrooms arranged around a bright central landing. The principal bedroom is positioned to the front of the house and enjoys lovely views towards Orton Scar, where spectacular sunsets can often be seen across the fells. Two further double bedrooms sit to the rear of the property, both benefiting from beautiful open views across surrounding fields and farmland, while the fourth bedroom is a generous single room with built in storage.

The family bathroom has been thoughtfully styled to create a space reminiscent of a boutique hotel, featuring a classic roll top bath with a rainfall shower above, metro tiled walls and elegant fittings. Soft neutral tones, inspired by Farrow and Ball's Elephant's Breath, create a calm and restful atmosphere.

Outside, the gardens have been carefully designed for both enjoyment and practicality. A gated garden area to the front provides an attractive terrace space with glass balustrading where the patio doors from the living room open out, creating a wonderful extension of the living space during warmer months. To the rear, a large flagged patio provides a sheltered spot for outdoor seating and entertaining. Steps lead up to a lawned garden area which is currently laid with self draining artificial turf, offering an ideal play area for children while remaining low maintenance. A charming raised playhouse sits tucked into the garden and will delight younger members of the family. Beyond this lies a further gravelled garden area enclosed by fencing which offers additional space for storage, growing vegetables or keeping logs and garden supplies.

The detached garage benefits from light and power and features a vaulted ceiling with exposed timbers and mezzanine storage, making it a highly versatile space for hobbies, workshop use or simply additional storage.
