Set beside Scandal Beck in the Eden Valley, this deceptively spacious four-bedroom detached home combines contemporary design with energy-efficient performance. The house offers around 222 sq m (2,389 sq ft) of living accommodation, a double-height reception hall, and a large open-plan kitchen/living/dining area with bifold doors that open to terraces and decking beside the beck.
Built with a fully insulated timber frame and Canadian Western Red Cedar cladding, the property has an EPC A rating, 4.4 kW integrated solar panels with iBoost, MVHR ventilation and zoned underfloor heating on the ground floor. The vaulted master suite includes a dressing area, ensuite and Juliet balcony overlooking the water. Practical additions include a utility room, snug, study/bedroom four, garage, car port, workshop and established kitchen garden.
Externally the plot is a key asset: very large gardens with multiple terraces, decked seating areas and a wild garden down to the beck. An additional parcel of land is available by separate negotiation, increasing privacy and scope for gardens or small-scale hobby farming.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the property sits in a remoter village location with average mobile and broadband speeds and a medium flood risk. Drainage is to a private mini treatment plant. Council tax is above average and the local area scores higher on deprivation indices than urban centres. These factors suit buyers seeking rural tranquillity and strong energy performance rather than those needing urban connectivity or low insurance/flood exposure.
