Summary - HAWTHORN COTTAGE, STATION ROAD, PENRITH, SHAP CA10 3PU
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Flexible four-bedroom home with private garden and parking for two.
Detached period cottage with single-storey extension
Hawthorn Cottage is a deceptively spacious detached period home extended at ground-floor level to create a flexible family layout. The house offers two reception rooms plus a dining room and kitchen, with two ground-floor bedrooms and a shower room — useful for guests or a dependant relative. Character details include multi-fuel stoves and traditional features alongside uPVC double glazing and gas central heating.
The enclosed rear garden enjoys afternoon sun and good privacy, while a side hardstanding provides off-street parking for up to two cars. At about 1,420 sq ft, the property sits on a modest plot in the southern part of Shap village, a short drive from Penrith and within easy reach of the Lake District — handy for family days out and commuting links.
Practical points to note: the EPC is rated D and broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, so buyers who work from home or prioritise high-speed internet should investigate options. The accommodation is generally well presented but offers opportunities for updating and personalisation, particularly to heating efficiency and some internal finishes.
This cottage will suit buyers seeking character, flexible living space and village life close to major transport routes. It also offers potential for a family needing ground-floor sleeping facilities or for purchasers looking to improve energy performance and add value through sympathetic updating.
