Chapel House is a striking converted chapel set in open farmland, recently renovated to retain original arched windows and Gothic character while offering extensive modern living space. The property provides 11 double bedrooms, four bathrooms and reception rooms arranged across two interconnecting wings — ideal for a large family, multi-generational living or holiday-let use with straightforward split-dwelling potential.
The house sits on a very large private plot with south-facing mature gardens, gated parking for several vehicles and an additional allotment-style plot. Views sweep across Lakeland hills to the Solway Firth; the village has basic amenities and good access to nearby towns such as Cockermouth and Keswick.
Practical specifics: the home is served by oil-fired boiler and radiators, cavity walls were built without insulation (assumed), and double glazing dates from before 2002. Council tax is above average for the area and tenure details are currently unknown. These factors may mean running costs and some retrofit work should be considered despite the recent renovation.
Overall this is a rare, characterful property offering generous accommodation and flexible use. It will suit buyers seeking space and rural outlooks who are comfortable with ongoing maintenance decisions and the practicalities of oil heating and older glazing.
