Summary - Barn for conversion, Docker Park Farm, Arkholme, Carnforth, LA6 1AR LA6 1AR
1 bed 1 bath Barn
Two-home development plot with expansive countryside views and large garden potential.
Planning permission granted to convert into two dwellings (ref. 24/01028/VCN)
A substantial detached stone barn set on about 0.5 acres in the Lune Valley, offered with planning permission to create two dwellings (Lancaster City Council ref. 24/01028/VCN, granted 30 April 2025). The building retains strong period character, high ceilings and generous internal volume, giving scope for distinctive rural homes with attractive countryside views.
This opportunity will suit investors, developers or extended families seeking a two‑unit project in an affluent, low‑crime village setting. Services are partly in place: mains electricity and a shared private borehole water supply; there is no mains gas. Purchasers must provide private drainage as required by the planning consent and would need to apply separately for garaging.
Practical points are clear and important: the vendor will construct the dividing wall between points C and D and demolish the outbuilding marked E on the plan; a right of way will be granted subject to a 50% share of ongoing repair and maintenance. Ultrafast broadband (B4RN) is potentially available but connection costs are at the buyer’s expense.
The barn is in a remote agricultural community yet reasonably accessible by road and rail, with local schools and services in Kirkby Lonsdale and Carnforth and motorway links to the M6. The site’s generous plot and countryside setting provide strong landscaping potential and scope to create two appealing rural homes with good rental or resale prospects.
