Affordable, character-packed two-bed cottage with renovation potential in Old Tebay..
Distinctive Victorian character: stained glass and reclaimed parquet
Quirky country kitchen with exposed beams and Belfast sink
Cosy living room with Morso log-burning stove
Small enclosed rear yard; on-street parking only
Single-glazed original windows — limited energy efficiency
Property unoccupied for years; needs cosmetic renovation
LPG heating bottles stored externally; boiler wall-mounted upstairs
Prominent corner position with countryside outlook nearby
Corner House is a compact Victorian cottage full of original character and ready for a creative new owner. Set on a prominent corner in the historic hamlet of Old Tebay, the house retains reclaimed parquet and original stained glass, hand-blown single-glazed panes and stripped floorboards that give the property abundant period charm.
The quirky kitchen is a standout: exposed brick, high beams, a Belfast sink on a vintage Singer table and a butcher-block cooking area create a memorable, rustic space. A cosy living room with a Morso log burner and useful understairs storage adds warmth and everyday practicality. There is a small enclosed rear yard and on-street parking; countryside views are visible from the roadside.
The house has been empty for several years and needs cosmetic updating and general renovation. Single glazing, an LPG-heated system with external gas bottles and a compact layout mean improvement works are likely if modern standards and energy efficiency are desired. The fundamentals appear solid, but buyers should expect a modest refurbishment project rather than a move-in-finished home.
This property will suit a buyer looking for affordable character in a rural village — a first-time buyer, downsizer or investor who values period detail and is comfortable with a renovation project. With easy access to the M6 and proximity to the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales, Corner House offers a rare entry-level opportunity to create a distinctive home in a well-located village setting.
