Set within the Westmorland Dales National Park, West View is a stone-built cottage that balances period charm with practical living spaces. The house offers two reception rooms, a generous breakfast kitchen, three bedrooms and a modern shower room — arranged over two stories with character features such as exposed beams and a multi-fuel stove. A sizeable adjoining garage/workshop and off-street parking for up to four cars add useful versatility for storage, hobbies or vehicles.
The rear garden faces south and is enclosed, private and well stocked, with a flagged seating area, ornamental pond, summer house and a fenced area for the oil tank and shed. The home benefits from double glazing, oil-fired central heating from a condensing boiler and thoughtful built-in storage. Nearby Appleby supplies everyday amenities while the surrounding fells, footpaths and bridleways provide immediate access to walking and country pursuits.
Important practical points are clear: drainage is to a private Klargester tank; the main heating fuel is oil (not a community supply); EPC rating E; and the home sits in an area with medium flood risk. There is no mobile signal in the village. The property's stone walls are original (pre-1900) and assumed uninsulated, so buyers should expect upgrading and possible damp-mitigation or insulation works if improving thermal efficiency.
For buyers seeking a characterful village home or a countryside base, West View offers solid room proportions, garage/workshop space and a private south garden. Those prioritising low-energy running costs, mains drainage or mobile reception should weigh the listed constraints and planned maintenance before viewing.
