Spacious plot and countryside calm with scope to extend and add value.
3 double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes to the master.
Generous rear plot — potential to extend/build (subject to planning).
Compact living space ~797 sq ft; single bathroom only.
Recently fitted gas boiler; LPG fuel (tank required).
Private sewage treatment plant — requires maintenance and checks.
Landscaped garden, summer house, greenhouse, timber shed and power supply.
Gated driveway with off-street parking for multiple vehicles.
Cavity walls as built, no added insulation assumed (upgrade recommended).
Set on a very large plot in a quiet village lane north of Carlisle, this three-double-bedroom detached bungalow blends period character with clear scope for improvement. The home offers a cosy lounge with a wood-burning stove, a conservatory that extends living space, and a rustic kitchen with exposed brick and beams. It’s well suited to buyers seeking countryside calm with easy access to the M6 and local schools.
The generous rear grounds are the standout asset: landscaped lawn, raised beds, vegetable patch, summer house, greenhouse and outbuildings. There is obvious potential to extend or add a new building (subject to planning), making the plot attractive to families wanting extra space, buyers seeking small-scale commercial use, or investors looking to add value.
Practical considerations are straightforward and honest. The house is compact at about 797 sq ft with a single family bathroom; the walls are cavity with no added insulation assumed. Heating runs from an LPG boiler and there’s a private sewage treatment plant—both require ongoing running costs and routine servicing. The driveway provides ample parking and the property benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Overall, this bungalow will appeal to purchasers prioritising outdoor space and extension potential over move-in perfection. Buyers should budget for modernisation and possible insulation or heating upgrades, but will find a peaceful, characterful home on a sizeable plot with strong future potential.
