A substantial five-bedroom detached bungalow with a self-contained one-bedroom annex set in generous, mature gardens on the edge of Colby village. The property offers flexible living: spacious main accommodation, a large bespoke kitchen with island and dining area, and a detached annex suitable for guests, extended family or a holiday-let income stream. L-shaped living accommodation and multiple ensuite bathrooms give private, comfortable spaces for family life or guest use.
The grounds are a standout feature: landscaped lawns, sheltered patio seating, two undercroft rooms and a purpose-built shed/workshop, plus parking for several vehicles. The site benefits from pleasant county views, abundant wildlife and a quiet village setting with Appleby just over a mile away. Services include mains water, drainage, mains electric and oil-fired central heating.
Buyers should note practical issues: the property has a medium flood risk and slow broadband speeds, council tax is above average and the EPC is currently pending. The house was previously run as a small B&B, so some rooms and finishes reflect that use and may suit buyers looking to refurbish or reconfigure. Overall this is a versatile home for a family wanting space and privacy, or an investor seeking holiday-let potential in an attractive rural location.
