Accessible one-bed in refurbished Georgian hall with communal facilities and landscaped grounds.
Second-floor apartment served by lift, rear-facing with open rural views
A bright one-bedroom apartment set within the restored Georgian Scalesceugh Hall, designed for comfortable, low-maintenance living. Positioned on the second floor and served by a lift, the home opens into a large open-plan kitchen–living area with underfloor heating and generous windows that deliver far-reaching rural views. The double bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and a private balcony, while a large wet-room style shower room offers accessible bathing.
Residents benefit from extensive communal facilities and grounds: a large shared living room, cinema room, landscaped gardens, allocated off-street parking and visitor spaces. On-site amenities such as a café and a swimming pool are due to open, adding social and leisure options on your doorstep. The building combines period character with modern fittings, including double glazing and a contemporary kitchen.
This development is for over-55s only, making it well suited to downsizers or retirees seeking a sociable community in a peaceful countryside setting close to Carlisle and Penrith. Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with a very long lease (996 years) and no ground rent, but an annual service charge of £2,122.56 applies. Broadband speeds are reported slow in the area, and the EPC is C, reflecting reasonable energy efficiency for its age and style.
Overall, the apartment offers low-maintenance, comfortable living within an attractive historic estate and strong communal facilities — a good match for buyers prioritising location, community and easy living over high-speed connectivity or a private garden.
