Summary - SNOWDALE SCALEBY CARLISLE CA6 4LW
5 bed 3 bath Detached
One-acre plot with solar panels and annexe planning approval.
Five double bedrooms with two en-suites and family bathroom
Snowdale is an exceptional five-double-bedroom detached home set in about one acre of private grounds, offering long-range countryside views and flexible multi-generational living. The house is well-appointed with three reception rooms, a bespoke kitchen with Range-style cooker and Quooker tap, and high-spec fittings throughout including oak doors and extensive floor coverings. Energy features include 15 solar panels, a biomass boiler and underfloor heating to most of the ground floor, helping reduce running costs.
Practical strengths include generous off-street parking, substantial garages (planning approved to convert into a one-bedroom annexe) and secure, well-proportioned gardens — ideal for families or someone seeking ancillary accommodation. The principal living areas are comfortable and characterful, with two rooms featuring log-burning stoves, a sun room with countryside outlook and a large reception hall that could accommodate a study area.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property’s main fuel is oil (with radiators and an oil boiler alongside the biomass system), council tax banding is above average, and local broadband speeds are slow. The house was constructed in the early 2000s and appears well maintained, but the garage conversion will require completion works to create the annexe. Mobile signal is average and the setting is a rural hamlet, so access relies on private transport.
Overall, Snowdale suits a family or household seeking space, countryside living and low-cradle energy features with potential for an income or separate annex. Its combination of high-spec interiors, outbuildings with planning, and extensive plot make it a rare rural opportunity close to Carlisle.
