Derelict stone barn with large plot and private driveway close to Lake District.
Full planning permission for 4-bedroom conversion (ref 2/2010/0419)
Set on the peaceful fringe of Wigton in High Longthwaite, this stone barn enjoys uninterrupted countryside views and a generous plot. Full planning permission (Cumberland Council ref 2/2010/0419) has been granted to convert the building into a four-bedroom family home with an upside-down living layout to maximise the scenery.
The site includes a private gated driveway, off-street parking to the front and rear, and several traditional outbuildings, offering scope for flexible use and landscaping. The proposed layout shows four ground-floor bedrooms (two en-suite) and a first-floor open-plan living, kitchen and dining space designed to capture the outlook.
The barn is derelict and requires full renovation and restoration; services, internal finishes and likely substantial fabric works will be needed. EPC is exempt. Its peaceful, semi-isolated hamlet setting and easy access to the Lake District National Park make this a strong project for a family seeking rural living or an experienced buyer wanting a renovation with planning in place.
Note practical details: broadband speeds are slow, mobile signal is average, and the property sits in a low-crime, agricultural community. Buyers should review the planning documentation (ref 2/2010/0419) and factor restoration costs into their budget.
