Low Wood Stile Barn is a substantial detached barn conversion occupying an elevated rural position with expansive views across the Duddon Estuary and Lakeland fells. The main house offers large, characterful rooms including a sitting room, charming kitchen, study and four bedrooms, with an en-suite to the master. Adjoining land extends to approximately 10.5 acres and includes a large semi-modern Charcon portal building ideal for equipment storage or agricultural use.
The attached barn already benefits from planning permission, presenting clear scope to extend living accommodation or convert the adjoining barn into a separate dwelling. Practical features include a garage, generous gravelled parking and turning area, and mains water and electricity. The setting is private and rural, yet reachable from the A595 and within about 45 minutes of the M6 (J36).
Buyers should note several important practical considerations. Heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators; the property is served by a Klargester septic tank and drainage field shared with one other property. Broadband speeds are very slow in this location despite excellent mobile signal. The stone walls date from before 1900 and are assumed to have no external wall insulation. Council tax is described as expensive.
This property will suit purchasers seeking country living with land — families, hobby farmers or buyers wanting space for outdoor equipment and workshops. The planning permission and large outbuilding offer tangible potential for expansion or income generation, but buyers should factor in heating, drainage and connectivity limitations alongside likely maintenance and potential upgrade costs.
