Stockdale House is a spacious Victorian detached home set in about 0.62 acres in the quiet village of Heads Nook. The property retains period features including high ceilings, stained glass and sash windows, with a large living room, separate sitting room and a bright kitchen diner anchored by an AGA. Generous room sizes and nearly 2,300 sqft give scope for family living or flexible use of reception rooms.
Outside there are extensive, well-stocked gardens with fruit trees, a wide driveway and a substantial double garage/barn with an upper floor plus additional outbuildings. The plot’s size and outbuildings offer scope for hobby farming, workshops, garaging or conversion subject to permissions. The house sits in an affluent, low-crime hamlet with easy access to local shops and services in nearby Corby Hill and Carlisle.
Buyers should note the house is an older construction (pre-1900) with sandstone/limestone walls assumed uninsulated and mixed heating (room heaters plus mains gas). The property uses a septic tank and currently has an EPC D; council tax is band F. These factors point to likely need for insulation and energy-efficiency improvements, and potential refurbishment to modernise heating and services.
This home will suit a family seeking character and land, or a buyer wanting a spacious rural house with renovation potential. Its generous plot and outbuildings are significant long-term assets, but plan for upgrading insulation, heating efficiency and routine works associated with an older property.
