Summary - HIGH FORGE 1 DALSTON CARLISLE CA5 7QL
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Charming two-bedroom village home with parking and workshop sheds.
End-terraced Victorian cottage with period stone walls
Set on the edge of popular Dalston village, this end-terraced Victorian cottage blends period character with practical outdoor space. The sunny front garden and paved side area provide pleasant outdoor living and gated access to generous off-street parking — a rare convenience for a cottage. Three useful rear sheds (one with power) add flexible storage or workshop space.
Inside, the cosy lounge with open fire links to a spacious dining kitchen, creating a warm, sociable ground floor. Two double bedrooms upstairs are well proportioned and light-filled, served by a modern shower room. The property is double glazed and currently heated by room heaters using dual fuel (mineral and wood).
Buyers should note some practical issues: the stone walls likely lack insulation and the EPC is D, so upgrading insulation and the heating system would improve comfort and running costs. There is pedestrian rear access used by neighbours and the property sits in a medium flood-risk area — appropriate insurance and local advice are recommended. Overall, this freehold cottage offers character, outdoor space and parking, and suits first-time buyers, professionals or those seeking a village retreat near Carlisle.
