Summary - MIDDLE FARM, PENRITH, LANGWATHBY CA10 1NB
5 bed 1 bath Detached
Spacious village property with generous grounds and renovation potential.
Substantial 5-bedroom former sandstone farmhouse, circa early 1800s
Middle Farm is a substantial former sandstone farmhouse set on a corner plot in the sought-after Eden Valley village of Langwathby. Believed to date from the early 19th century, the house retains generous room proportions, high ceilings and original character while offering flexible accommodation across two main floors and approximately 3,714 sq ft. The property includes five double bedrooms, a large living room, dining room, and multiple secondary rooms suitable for family use or home working.
The grounds are generous and include formal garden areas, ample off-street parking and a pair of sandstone outbuildings that could be repurposed or removed to extend the garden. The location is village-centre convenient — close to the green, village amenities and well-placed for access to the Pennines and the Lake District. There is no recorded flood risk and the setting benefits from very low local crime levels.
This house is offered chain free but requires complete renovation throughout. Services include oil-fired central heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and drainage to a septic tank. There are signs of historic structural movement on the rear elevation that will need professional assessment and repair, and the property has no modern wall insulation (stone walls). Council tax is above average and any works to meet current regulations will be the purchaser’s responsibility.
For a buyer prepared to invest, Middle Farm presents a strong renovation and development opportunity in a popular rural village. It suits a family seeking a large, character home with scope to upgrade and personalise, or an investor considering sensitive restoration or potential further development subject to permissions.
