Characterful barn conversion with annexe, large plot and strong eco credentials.
Very large 4-bed barn conversion plus self-contained 1-bed annexe
Kerine is a substantial four-bedroom barn conversion with a self-contained one-bedroom annexe, set on a very large private plot in Crooklands. The house combines traditional stone character with high-spec eco features — solar panels, an air-source heat pump, and underfloor heating — delivering low running costs and modern comfort. Large windows and triple-aspect rooms frame long countryside views towards Kentmere, while a generous open-plan kitchen-diner and a limestone fireplace create warm, sociable living spaces.
Practicality and flexibility are strong selling points: a large integral garage with inspection pit and WC, off-street parking for several cars, B4RN gigabit broadband, and excellent mobile signal suit home-working and hobbyists. The annexe, with its own entrance and kitchen/bathroom, offers genuine multigenerational living or rental/holiday-let potential. The well-established gardens include raised vegetable beds, a greenhouse with electrics, and a small orchard — ideal for low-maintenance gardening or entertaining on the terrace by the pond.
Important considerations are stated plainly. The property sits in a hamlet/isolated setting (remoter community), so daily services are nearby but not immediate; the location relies on a car for many journeys despite easy motorway and rail links. Flood risk is assessed as medium; buyers should obtain specific flood-risk and insurance advice. Waste is handled by a Klargester system covering the development and currently maintained by the landowner/developer — clarify long-term maintenance responsibilities and costs. Mains water is listed as incoming only; prospective purchasers should confirm supply details during enquiries.
Offered freehold at £725,000, Kerine suits families seeking space and country living, buyers who prioritise energy efficiency and low running costs, or those wanting an annexe for income or extended family. The property is presented ready to move into yet still offers scope for personalisation and modest modernisation to maximise its style and layout.
