Summary - SMITHY COTTAGE, APPLEBY-IN-WESTMORLAND, DUFTON CA16 6DB
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Large renovation project with riverside woodland and attic development potential.
Stone-built Victorian cottage with superb fell and village green views
Set in the attractive Westmorland village of Dufton, this traditional stone cottage enjoys open views over the green to Dufton Pike and surrounding fells. The property includes an enclosed forecourt, a rear yard with an outhouse and an unusual additional parcel of riverside woodland (circa 0.187 acres) accessed by a public footpath. The house is freehold and benefits from uPVC double glazing and generous overall floorspace including a large attic.
The accommodation is currently arranged over three storeys and described as having four bedrooms, a ground-floor bathroom, living and dining rooms and a kitchen. There is good potential to reconfigure or extend the upper space and attic to create additional, light-filled bedrooms or a home office, making this appealing to families seeking extra space or buyers wanting an individually restored period home.
This is a renovation project: the property requires a complete scheme throughout. The oil-fired Bosky range that provides heating and hot water has not been used for several years and the building will require a full mechanical, electrical and heating review before recommissioning. Note also there is no mobile signal at the property, although broadband speeds are reported as fast. For buyers seeking a turn-key home this is not suitable, but for those looking to personalise a sizable village cottage with woodland and fine fell views, it offers rare potential.
