Large gravel driveway with scope to construct a garage or convert garden store
Double-glazed sash windows; oil-fired boiler and radiators (private oil supply)

Small flying freehold where house adjoins neighbour — legal enquiry advised

Set within about three-quarters of an acre, this substantial five-bedroom Victorian/Georgian residence combines generous living space with notable period detail. High ceilings, original cornices, deep skirtings and an original Carrara marble fireplace give the principal rooms strong character, while large sash windows and multiple reception rooms suit flexible family use and entertaining.
The house has been refurbished and is presented in superb condition throughout with a fitted Shaker-style kitchen, three bathrooms and practical additions such as Karndean flooring, double-glazed sash windows and generous storage including a large garden store that could become a garage. Off-street parking and wide gravel driveway provide ample space for vehicles and potential garaging.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property relies on oil-fired central heating (private supply), external walls are traditional sandstone/limestone with no assumed built-in insulation, and the EPC is rated E. There is a very small flying freehold where the house adjoins the neighbour, and the council tax band is high (Band F).
This home will suit purchasers seeking a spacious, character-filled residence in a quiet hamlet-like setting with excellent access to local schools, shops, coastline and the Lake District. It offers immediate move-in comfort with clear scope for energy improvements or further adaptation (garage conversion, insulation upgrades) to tailor long-term running costs and performance.
