Summary - The Barn, Great Orton, Carlisle, CA5 CA5 6LL
3 bed 2 bath Barn
Large plot with countryside views and strong renovation potential.
Full planning permission for three-bedroom conversion (Ref 16/0054)
A detached stone barn on the edge of Great Orton with full planning permission to convert into a three-bedroom home. The approved scheme (Carlisle City Council ref 16/0054) proposes two ground-floor bedrooms (one en-suite), utility and entrance hall, with a first-floor open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner and a further en-suite bedroom. The plot is large, private and offers attractive countryside and fell views.
The building is a traditional rural stone barn with character and sizable internal volume, but it is a derelict conversion project. Mains water and electricity are present on site but currently not connected; a septic tank is shared with a neighbouring property. The roof and external stonework will need attention and internal fit-out is required to complete the conversion.
Planned environmental features include an air source heat pump. Off-street parking and a garden are included. The village setting offers a primary school, a pub and quick road access to Carlisle, the A595 and the M6, making this suitable for a family seeking a countryside home or a buyer experienced in barn conversions prepared for a hands-on renovation.
Buyers should note this is a new-build conversion permission on a freehold plot; services have not been tested and completion will require coordination of connections, drainage arrangements and building works. The property offers strong potential but requires capital, time and contractor management to realise the approved plans.
