Applegarth, Margate Cross, Tirril, Penrith, Cumbria

Located to the fringe of this ever popular village at the entrance of the Ullswater Valley section of the Lake District National Park, less than 5 minutes from Pooley Bridge, a well-proportioned, 3 bedroom detached bungalow, in a generous plot, with twin garages, mature gardens and pastoral views.

Competitively priced and with the significant advantage of no onward chain, this large and extended bungalow lies on the edge of Tirril, an ever-popular village close to Lake Ullswater and just outside the Lake District National Park. Applegarth is ideally situated, being less than 10 minutes from the local town of Penrith, the M6 motorway and A66, whilst just 5 minutes from Pooley Bridge.

This is a well-proportioned, detached bungalow with 3 bedrooms plus a separate study, centred in a generous plot, bordered by mature beech hedging that affords all-round privacy. The site was formerly an orchard and retains several fruit trees, along with a range of soft fruit bushes, a rose garden and lawned areas to three sides.

This unique home has been well maintained over the years and offers spacious, versatile accommodation throughout, whilst also presenting an exciting opportunity for a new owner to further extend or develop to their own specification. Constructed of brick-clad timber framing, the property would readily accommodate internal reconfiguration, and its location just beyond the National Park boundary may, subject to the necessary permissions, offer outstanding scope for extension or further development.

The accommodation is all on a single level and is both practical and generously proportioned.

An entrance porch opens into a welcoming central hallway, leading through to a dual-aspect sitting room bathed in natural light and enjoying attractive outlooks across the gardens. A well-proportioned dining room with feature fitted cabinetry offers an ideal space for formal entertaining.
Positioned to the rear of the property, the spacious kitchen-dining room enjoys a pleasant garden aspect and links to a study and the rear hallway. Beyond this lies a highly useful range of ancillary spaces including a shower room, utility room, walk-through pantry/storeroom and workshop (which would easily convert to a home office), all contributing to the flexibility and practicality of the home.

Off the main hallway there are three comfortable bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with built-in storage, while the second bedroom benefits from a fitted wash hand basin. The principal shower room completes the internal accommodation.

Externally, the property is surrounded by mature wraparound gardens which provide a high degree of privacy and colour throughout the seasons, with established hedging, well-stocked borders and lawned areas combining to create a particularly attractive setting. Ample off-road parking is provided alongside twin garages.

Properties of this calibre, offering such clear potential and occupying such an exceptional location with easy access to both the Lake District and the market town of Penrith, rarely come to the market. Applegarth represents a superb opportunity to acquire a substantial home with enormous scope in a truly picturesque location, and viewing is essential to fully appreciate both the setting and possibilities on offer.
