Summary - Summerfield House, Pasture Lane, Hesket Newmarket CA7 8JP
2 bed 1 bath Detached
Secluded two-bedroom home with huge garden and conversion potential.
17th-century detached farmhouse with original period character
Set within the Lake District National Park, Summerfield House is a 17th-century detached farmhouse offering a peaceful rural lifestyle and expansive views of West Fell and Carrock Fell. The house sits on just under 2 acres, with gardens, a paddock and traditional stone outbuildings that present genuine scope for extension or conversion subject to planning permission.
The property retains period character and a substantial plot, making it suitable for buyers seeking country living, small-scale farming or equestrian use. Heating is via an air-source heat pump with underfloor electric distribution, and double glazing is in place (installed before 2002). Broadband speeds are very slow and the stone walls are assumed to have no added insulation, which will affect running costs and may require improvement works.
Important practical points are stated clearly: the EPC is F and the house will benefit from thermal upgrades and modernisation. Any conversion or extension of the adjoining stone barns will require formal planning consent. The location is peaceful and secluded yet only about a mile from Hesket Newmarket village, with excellent mobile signal and no local flooding risk.
This property suits buyers who value rural seclusion, period character and land, and who are prepared to invest in energy efficiency and possible renovation or planning-led development to unlock further potential.
