Description
Slip House is a substantial three-bedroom home situated in the hamlet of Barras, just a short drive from the thriving market town of Kirkby Stephen.
Kirkby Stephen is a well-connected and characterful town, located approximately ten miles from Junction 38 of the M6 and ideally positioned for access to Kendal, Penrith, Appleby and the Lake District National Park. Set on the renowned Settle–Carlisle railway line and crossed by both the Coast to Coast and Lady Anne’s Way walking routes, the town is particularly popular with those who enjoy the outdoors. It offers a strong community atmosphere alongside an excellent range of amenities, including highly regarded primary and grammar schools, independent shops, traditional pubs, cafés, essential services, a weekly market and a historic agricultural auction mart.
Originally built in the 18th century as The Slip Inn public house and later extended. Slip House has formally been a farm but more recently has been sympathetically renovated (2010/ 2011) and retains much of its original character and charm. The ground floor accommodation comprises a spacious reception room featuring a wood-burning stove, a modern dining kitchen with a Rayburn, a study, WC and a useful utility room with access to the outside space. On the first floor, the former function room has been transformed into an impressive living room with built-in storage and a feature fireplace. There are also three well-proportioned bedrooms, two doubles and a spacious single bedroom and a family bathroom.
Externally, the property is approached via a gated driveway providing ample off-road parking for up to five vehicles. A particular feature of the property is the extensive range of outbuildings, which include a greenhouse, potting shed, coal shed, external WC and shower room, a large workshop, three generously sized garages and a working four-post vehicle lift. Subject to the necessary consents, these versatile buildings may offer potential for a variety of alternative uses.
Offered to the market with no onward chain, Slip House presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a distinctive family home, an appealing countryside retreat or an investment property in a sought-after location.
