Summary - FENHAM COTTAGE SOULBY KIRKBY STEPHEN CA17 4PJ
5 bed 3 bath Semi-Detached
Five double bedrooms, generous garden and long-range valley views ideal for family living.
Approx. 2,122 sq ft across three flexible floors
Fenham Cottage is a spacious, stone-built barn conversion set over three floors in the Eden Valley village of Soulby. About 2,122 sq ft, it currently provides five double bedrooms, a ground-floor bedroom with en suite, a large open-plan dining kitchen and a first-floor sitting room with a stove and picture window framing long-distance rural views.
The house is presented in good decorative order and has been run successfully as a holiday let, so it suits family living, home-working or continued holiday-let use. The layout is flexible — one floor could be dedicated to a home office or studio — and the plot includes an enclosed rear garden, lawned side area, shed, log store and a large gravel drive with ample parking and turning space.
Important practical points: the home was constructed in the 1840s and converted from a barn about twenty years ago, so traditional granite walls are present and insulation details are limited (walls assumed uninsulated). The structured data lists electric storage heating as the main heating source; another description mentions gas central heating, so prospective buyers should verify the current heating/fuel configuration. There is a medium flood risk for the location and local area indicators show higher deprivation and average broadband and mobile signals.
Overall this is a rare period conversion offering generous rooms, countryside views and strong holiday-let potential. Buyers seeking character, parking and flexible internal space in a quiet village will appreciate the property — but budget for checks on heating, wall insulation and flood-related safeguards before purchase.
