Set within the Grade II listed Dufton Hall, this two-bedroom top-floor maisonette pairs historic character with sweeping Eden Valley and Pennine views. The apartment is presented in good order and has been used successfully as a self-contained holiday let and conventional rental, offering immediate income potential or a charming low‑maintenance main residence. High ceilings, sash windows, stripped wood floors and a spiral staircase give genuine period character.
Practical details are straightforward: long lease (966 years), no flood risk, mains services connected, and on-street parking to the rear. Heating is a mix of boiler/radiators and a wood‑burning fuel option. The building’s sandstone walls are likely uninsulated and the Grade II listing will restrict alterations and may complicate modernisation or structural work.
Important transactional points: the property is leasehold and a public notice is required as part of the sales process. Prospective buyers should note the purchaser will be responsible for splitting electrical services. This is a village location with good broadband, low crime and easy access to Penrith and Appleby — appealing to buyers seeking rural lifestyle or rental returns.
