Summary - Vale House, Bassenthwaite CA12 4QH
3 bed 1 bath Barn Conversion
Spacious period barn with garden, garage and Lakeland views — needs full modernisation..
Deceptively spacious three-bedroom barn conversion over three floors
A deceptively spacious three-bedroom barn conversion set over three floors, Vale House offers classic stone character and far-reaching Lakeland fell views. The accommodation includes a dual-aspect living room, kitchen/breakfast room, three double bedrooms and a bathroom, with a garden to one side and a shared cobbled courtyard to the other. A detached garage and a large plot add practical appeal for family life and outdoor hobbies.
The property sits in Bassenthwaite within the Lake District National Park, a short drive from Keswick and local good-rated schools. Its rural village setting, low local crime and large footprint suit families seeking countryside space with easy access to amenities and fell walking.
Important practical facts: the house requires modernisation throughout, has an EPC rating of F, uses oil-fired central heating and has cavity walls assumed uninsulated. There is a medium flood risk locally and council tax is band E. These factors mean early buyers should budget for energy upgrades, potential insulation work and general refurbishment.
For a buyer willing to invest, the conversion’s period character, sizeable rooms and scenic position create strong potential to modernise for comfort, improve energy performance and increase long-term value. The freehold tenure and generous plot provide flexibility for extension or landscaping subject to National Park regulations.
