Summary - Fern Cottage, Papcastle CA13 0JT
3 bed 1 bath Cottage
Characterful three-bedroom cottage near Cockermouth with low-maintenance garden.
Detached three-bedroom Georgian cottage, character features intact
Set in the historic village of Papcastle, this detached three-bedroom cottage blends period charm with practical modern upgrades. A bright, open-plan living and dining room features an exposed stone wall and a wood-burning stove, creating a warm central space for everyday life and entertaining. The kitchen and utility are finished to a contemporary standard and connect well to the living area.
Upstairs are two generous double bedrooms and a versatile third room suitable as a home office or guest bedroom. The accommodation is completed by a single well-appointed family bathroom. Practical highlights include double glazing (installed post-2002), mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and a freehold title.
Outside, the property offers a low-maintenance paved patio garden to the rear and a pleasant paved area to the front. Gated side access accommodates bikes, motorbikes or very small cars, and a garden shed provides useful storage. The village location is peaceful with very low crime, excellent mobile signal and easy access to Cockermouth amenities and good local schools.
Important factual points: the cottage has an EPC rating of D and the original granite or whinstone walls are assumed to be uninsulated, which may affect running costs. The plot is small and there is a single bathroom only. Broadband speeds are average. These factors should be weighed alongside the property’s character, central village location and low-maintenance outdoor space.
