Summary - Low Whineray Ground, Duddon Bridge On The A595t To Whistling Green LA20 6DS
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Substantial cottage, land and river frontage for a tranquil Lake District lifestyle.
Grade II Listed long house with extensive original period features
A rare Grade II Listed Cumbrian long house offering a substantial slice of Lake District countryside. Carefully and partially renovated using traditional methods, the house retains abundant original features — cruck timbers, exposed oak beams, flag floors and historic cupboards — while modern upgrades include new wiring, plumbing, conservation skylights, double-glazed heritage windows and air-source heating.
Set in c.11.93 acres with over 200m of River Duddon frontage, informal gardens, orchard and multiple stone outbuildings, this is a versatile smallholding ideal for a peaceful retirement or a buyer seeking a heritage property with scope. Attached and detached stores, the wash house and orchard barn broaden the possibilities for storage, workshops or sympathetic conversion, subject to listed-building consent and planning.
Important practical points are clear and factual: the house is Grade II Listed which will restrict alterations and may complicate conversions; it will be sold at auction; private water is from shared springs and private drainage uses a sole-use septic tank; access runs across common land with shared maintenance obligations; mobile signal is absent though broadband is fast.
Sold with a modestly fitted kitchen (new Aga in place) and recent services upgrades, the property is a largely ready canvas but still expects finishing works and ongoing maintenance typical of a very large, historic farmstead. There is an option to buy an additional c.3.8-acre parcel with a field barn and extra river frontage, expanding the amenity and grazing potential.
