Millstones Olde Farm House is a spacious, well-maintained 18th-century farmhouse set in a quiet Lake District village with far-reaching fell and distant sea views. Internally the house offers generous reception rooms, a large farmhouse kitchen with oil-fired Stanley range, an expansive conservatory overlooking the garden, and flexible upper-floor rooms ideal for home working or play. The property is presented in good order after long-term family ownership since 1992.
Externally the plot is a major asset: very large gardens, attractive rockery, ornamental pond, a sweeping driveway with ample parking and a double garage with power, light, WC and inspection pit. Two secure stone outbuildings (barns) provide substantial scope for conversion to ancillary accommodation; outline planning was granted in 2022 but has since expired and would need reapplying.
This home will suit families who value space, rural character and access to outdoor life — scenic walks, beach and rail links are all within easy reach. Practical considerations include oil-fired central heating, average mobile signal and broadband, and a medium flood risk for the area; buyers should commission their own surveys and enquiries.
Important practical points: the neighbour has pedestrian access across the side driveway for maintenance, and second-floor rooms have sloping ceilings/Velux windows which limit full-height use. The house is freehold, offered chain free, and ready for immediate occupation while also offering clear potential for further improvement or extension subject to planning.
