Summary - FORGE COTTAGE ARMATHWAITE CARLISLE CA4 9PB
3 bed 1 bath Cottage
Spacious three-bed stone cottage needing refurbishment in the heart of Armathwaite..
Large, characterful terraced cottage in village centre
Forge Cottage is a traditional stone-built terrace in the heart of Armathwaite, offering three bedrooms across generous, multi-storey accommodation. The property captures rustic character with ivy-clad stonework, chimneys and period proportions while sitting within a small, enclosed rear garden ideal for family use or potting. Its village-centre location places local shops, an inn and a good primary school within easy walking distance.
Internally the layout works well for families: sitting and dining rooms plus a separate kitchen and utility/WC, providing flexible living space across about 1,765 sq ft. The cottage is freehold and in Council Tax Band C. Practical positives include a sizeable overall footprint and a private rear garden; the property sits in a low-crime, rural community with mostly average mobile and broadband services.
This home requires upgrading and modest refurbishment throughout; the EPC is rated E and some modernisation would improve energy efficiency. There is a single bathroom and renovation could include reconfiguring services or updating the kitchen and bathrooms. Buyers should note a medium flood risk in the area and factor that into insurance and renovation plans.
Forge Cottage will suit a family seeking village life with character and space to personalise. It also has potential for owners who want a mix of period charm and practical improvements — an opportunity to create a comfortable home in a friendly community between Carlisle and Penrith.
