Summary - The Croft, Cardewlees CA5 6LE
4 bed 3 bath Detached
Spacious four-bed family home with panoramic country views and large workshop.
Over 2,350 sq ft of versatile family accommodation
Set on about an acre on the outskirts of Carlisle, this substantial four-bedroom detached house offers over 2,350 sq ft of flexible family space and commanding countryside views. The ground floor includes a guest bedroom with en-suite, a large open-plan living/dining/kitchen with bi-fold doors to the garden, a snug, utility and practical circulation for everyday family life. The master suite upstairs benefits from a walk-in dressing area and an en-suite bath with panoramic outlooks.
A major practical asset is the impressive 200 m² workshop/garage with electric supply and lighting — ideal for multiple vehicles, hobbies, storage or conversion into a home gym or studio (subject to consents). The property is approached through remote electronic gates and has extensive flagged patio areas, level lawns and a hot tub — offering immediate outdoor enjoyment and scope to personalise the garden further.
Important practical points: the house dates from the 1930–49 period, is solid brick (assumed no cavity insulation), heated by an LPG boiler (not on a community supply) and currently has an EPC rating of E. These factors can affect running costs and may require improvement works to raise thermal efficiency. Council Tax Band F reflects above-average local charges.
This home will suit families seeking space, privacy and countryside living within easy reach of Carlisle and local village amenities. It also appeals to buyers needing substantial garaging/workshop space. Viewings will best benefit from a planning/technical review to understand insulation, heating and any conversion potential for the workshop.
