Set in the heart of Appleby Magna, this substantial six-bedroom detached cottage blends period character with contemporary living across over 4,200 sq ft. The home’s centrepiece is a 36ft open-plan living kitchen finished to a high specification, ideal for entertaining and everyday family life. Multiple reception rooms include a dual-aspect lounge and an impressive garden room with Velux windows and a log burner that extend usable living space year-round.
The property includes a self-contained ground-floor annexe with separate access—lounge, kitchen, bedroom and shower facilities—suited to extended family use or rental income. Landscaped rear gardens, paved patios and a private courtyard provide a tranquil outdoor retreat, complemented by a fully insulated timber outbuilding currently fitted as a gym and bar. Two gated gravel driveways offer extensive off-street parking and separate annexe access.
Sleeping accommodation is generous with six bedrooms served by high-quality bathrooms, including a principal suite with walk-in wardrobe and private balcony. The layout and room sizes suit larger families or multi-generational households seeking flexible, characterful accommodation with modern finishes.
Buyers should note a few practical points: the property is of solid brick construction with assumed no cavity insulation, double-glazing install dates are unknown, and local broadband and mobile signals are average. The tenure is stated as freehold but should be verified by buyers. Crime in the area is above average—prospective purchasers may wish to consider security measures.
