Set in a peaceful hamlet between New Hutton and Old Hutton, this sympathetically restored 4-bedroom barn conversion blends rural character with modern efficiency. Exposed limestone walls, reclaimed timber, and handcrafted features give the home strong period charm, while recent upgrades (new roof and insulation 2023) and battery-backed solar panels supply substantial energy savings.
The heart of the house is a wide, triple-aspect dining kitchen with bespoke joinery, granite worktops and under-slate heating — a practical family space with a porch for muddy boots. Living accommodation includes a generous dual-aspect sitting room with wood-burning stove, a snug/study, downstairs double bedroom and a well-appointed ground-floor shower room for flexible multi-generational living.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom has panoramic country views and a small private balcony; two further bedrooms and a family bathroom with a roll-top bath complete the first floor. Practical outbuildings include a detached garage, a home gym and a separate office/studio suitable for working from home. The large, thoughtfully landscaped gardens and pond provide outdoor interest and space for children and pets.
Important considerations: the property’s primary heat source is an Esse oil-fired range, so heating relies on oil deliveries rather than mains gas. Council tax is band G, so running costs may be higher than average. The hamlet location offers tranquillity and excellent broadband (B4RN) and mobile signal, but it is rural — local shops are in Kendal and access to main roads/rail is by car.
