Substantial plot with barn and panoramic countryside views, ready for renovation.
Three bedrooms with ground-floor bedroom and first-floor bathroom
Attached barn plus several outbuildings, scope for conversion (subject to consent)
Approx two-acre paddock ideal for equestrian or smallholding use
Requires full renovation and modernisation throughout
Stone-built c. pre-1900 walls likely uninsulated; energy upgrade likely needed
Oil-fired boiler, private spring water and septic tank — maintenance to consider
Very slow broadband; average mobile signal may affect remote working
Freehold in remote hamlet, no flood risk, very low local crime
Set on about two acres in the Eden Valley, this three-bedroom detached house offers genuine rural opportunity. The property includes an attached barn, multiple outbuildings and a formal garden, all framed by expansive countryside views. It is freehold and located in a very low-crime, remote hamlet setting with no flooding risk.
The accommodation currently comprises a ground-floor bedroom, living room, large kitchen-diner and a first-floor bathroom with two further bedrooms. The house was built before 1900 in stone, has double glazing, oil-fired central heating and private water and sewage arrangements (spring water and septic tank). The walls are traditionally constructed stone with no known insulation and the property requires renovation throughout.
For buyers seeking scope, the barn and outbuildings offer conversion or storage potential, subject to consents. The huge plot is suitable for equestrian use, smallholding or substantial garden expansion. Practical considerations include very slow broadband, average mobile signal, oil fuel supply, and potential costs to upgrade fabric and services (insulation, heating system, and EPC improvement works).
This will suit a buyer prepared to invest time and money to modernise while keeping character features. It’s a rare chance to create a comfortable family home or rural retreat with considerable outside space and superb valley views.
