Cartmel, Grange-Over-Sands, Cumbria, LA11

OVERVIEW

From first impressions, this semi-detached bank barn conversion looks modest, however looks can be deceiving as the accommodation on offer is generous in every aspect, the views from the windows fantastic and the plot can only be appreciated on viewing. Converted approximately 40 years ago, the property retains character beams, high vaulted ceilings and thick set walls - some of which are 2ft thick. The layout is over two floors, on the entry level are three bedrooms plus a beautifully appointed bathroom. The upper level has access to the garden through a boot room and there is an impressive sitting room, dining room with gallery above and a relaxing garden room. The kitchen has been updated in recent years and there is a master bedroom ensuite. The plot is perfect for buyers who enjoy outdoor life with space for play, recreation and produce. There is a double garage, BBQ/grill cabin and even a tennis court.

LOCATION

Approximately a mile from Cartmel Village centre, the property boasts a great location for Michelin Star restaurants, traditional pubs, historic Cartmel Priory and the famous Sticky Toffee Pudding Shop. There are both primary and secondary schools and a GP surgery in the village. Cartmel Racecourse hosts a number of events through the year making it a popular destination for both locals and visitors and the grand Holker Hall and Gardens is close by. Cark in Cartmel Railway Station is also about a mile away with links to Manchester Airport, Barrow in Furness and Lancaster.

ACCOMMODATION

A sauna has been cleverly fitted beneath the stairs. All three bedrooms on this level are doubles, with the two at the front having lovely views towards fields. The fully tiled bathroom has a high end finish, double ended bath and large shower enclosure with rainfall shower head. The adjoining cloakroom/wc houses the solar battery storage and inverter.

The first floor continues to impress. The split landing and stairs lead to a boot room at the rear, a great space for muddy coats and shoes and having access to the garden. Continuing up the stairs onto the landing, large exposed beams remind you of the origins of the building and there are oak doors to each room. Moving into the sitting room, a generous space with vaulted ceiling and French doors to the balcony. From here there are views over the garden towards trees - a lovely place for a morning cup of tea or evening glass of wine. A hearty woodburner keeps the space cosy. Across the landing, the dining room connects to a lovely garden room and has a spiral staircase to a gallery above, perfect as a home office. The garden room has a relaxing feel with vista over the garden from the French doors and a part glazed ceiling. Facing the front and side aspect, the kitchen is ideal for everyday dining and has a breakfast bar, contemporary white gloss handleless units (truncated)

The outdoor space on offer does not disappoint. At the front is a gravelled parking and turning space - the LPG tank is beneath the drive, marked by plant pots.
