Set in the desirable Eden Valley village of Great Strickland, this substantial detached family home offers generous, light-filled rooms and flexible living across a large footprint. The ground floor flows from a welcoming hall into a living room with multi-fuel stove, adjoining dining room with bifold doors, snug/office and a well-equipped dining kitchen with utility. Three double bedrooms and two luxury bathrooms sit on the first floor alongside an enclosed balcony and a very large games room of circa 500 sq ft.
The games room is a standout asset: currently a spacious leisure area with an LPG stove and bar, it could be converted into an enormous principal suite, several additional bedrooms or an independent annexe for a dependent relative. Practical outside space includes a tarmac forecourt with parking for several vehicles, an integral double garage, separate workshop and an enclosed rear garden with terraces and good privacy.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the property is freehold, has an EPC C rating and benefits from uPVC double glazing, but primary heating is oil-fired with the main boiler located in the garage. Broadband speeds are slow in the area and the dwelling was built before 1900 with stone walls assumed to have no insulation, so buyers should factor in possible upgrade or insulation work. Council Tax Band E applies.
This home will suit a growing family seeking versatile accommodation in a peaceful, rural hamlet six miles from Penrith’s amenities, or purchasers wanting scope to add living and sleeping space. Viewings will best reveal the size and conversion potential; condition is good but some energy-efficiency improvements and modernisation could add value.
