Summary - Applegarth, Aynsome Road, Cartmel LA11 6HG
1 bed 1 bath Land
Extensive Cartmel grazing and upland conservation opportunity near village amenities.
Approximately 196.69 acres total: 59.57 acres productive, 137.12 acres upland grazing
This is a rare lot of productive meadow, pasture and upland grazing in the Cartmel Valley, extending to approximately 196.69 acres (79.61 ha). The land includes circa 59.57 acres of ring-fenced mowing and grazing ground plus about 137.12 acres of Hampsfell upland rich in biodiversity and intersected by footpaths and a bridleway. Hampsfell Tower and Hampsfell Hospice (both Grade II listed) lie within the lot and add heritage interest.
The lot sits partially within the Lake District National Park, offering exceptional rural views and strong environmental value. Several parcels already benefit from water troughs fed by a private supply; boundaries are a mix of dry stone walls, mature hedgerow and post-and-wire fencing and are described as stockproof. The land is offered with vacant possession on completion but is currently occupied under grazing licences requiring one month’s notice.
Potential buyers should note constraints: parts of the lot are subject to a Limestone Pavement Order, two Grade II listed structures are within the boundaries, and specific parcels are enrolled in a Countryside Stewardship Mid Tier Agreement until 31/12/2028 which must be transferred or complied with. The farm buildings and principal dwelling (in another lot) are listed and in need of renovation; any building or conversion proposals will require planning consent, particularly within the National Park.
Practical considerations include private septic drainage on the overall farm (subject to strict regulation), slow broadband and average mobile signal common to the locality, and council tax bands on the farmhouse and bungalow noted as high. For purchasers seeking an expansive agricultural holding, environmental scheme opportunities or sympathetic conversion and consolidation in one of England’s most desirable valleys, Lot 1b offers significant scale and long-term potential, balanced by heritage, regulatory and servicing constraints.
