A substantial rural holding of approximately 14 acres with a derelict traditional stone country cottage, outbuildings and three separate building plots. The site sits half a mile from Hallbankgate and offers open views to the Brampton Fells — appealing for a buyer seeking a countryside renovation or small development opportunity. Plot 2 is identified in planning documentation as a barn conversion and includes about 4 acres of land (Planning ref: 15/0736).
The existing cottage is described as a detached one-bedroom, one-bathroom property in poor condition: roof damage, overgrown grounds and general dereliction mean significant repair or a full rebuild is likely. Services are present (water noted) but tenure is unknown; buyers should confirm utilities, access and ownership boundaries before proceeding. There is no flood risk and local crime levels are very low, which supports rural living or letting potential.
This offering suits an experienced developer, self-builder or investor able to manage renovation and planning complexity. The approved site plan shows a modern farmhouse layout with private gardens, parking and garage provision, but buyers should verify which permissions remain valid and whether conditions affect plots individually. Transport and services are limited by the remoter village setting; broadband speeds are reported fast, mobile signal average.
Nearby small primary schools and a secondary school with Good Ofsted ratings add practical appeal for families considering long-term occupation. The property’s size and countryside setting present scope for creating a substantial private home, multiple dwellings or an equestrian/grazing use, subject to planning and local authority consents.
