Large traditional farmhouse with extensive outbuildings and up to 35.76 acres..
Traditional Cumbrian farmhouse with exposed beams and fireplaces
Woodside House is a traditional Cumbrian farmhouse set in an exceptionally private position within the Lake District National Park. The main house offers generous, light rooms with period features such as exposed beams and fireplaces, arranged over multiple floors and totaling around 4,494 sq ft. The house sits within about 2.31 acres of immediate grounds with lawns, a courtyard farmyard and a substantial range of outbuildings suitable for garaging, storage or stabling.
A further c.33.45 acres of pasture, currently entered in a Countryside Stewardship Mid Tier agreement, is available separately by negotiation, giving potential purchasers up to c.35.76 acres in total. The land is permanent pasture used for grazing and benefits from a natural water supply, making it suitable for livestock or low‑intensity agricultural uses.
Practical considerations are important: services include mains electricity, private water, oil‑fired central heating and septic tank drainage. The septic tank has not been surveyed and may not meet current Environment Agency rules; any purchaser should budget for survey and possible upgrade. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal only average. The property has an EPC rating of F and stone walls with assumed no insulation, indicating likely energy upgrade work is required.
Within a protected national park, any conversion or development of barns and outbuildings would be subject to planning and conservation restrictions. For buyers seeking a spacious country home with substantial land and versatile outbuildings, Woodside offers strong scope for refurbishment, equestrian use or small‑scale farming, but expect regulatory checks, infrastructure work and energy improvements before full modernisation is achieved.
