Description: Having been in the family since 1956 this remarkable property was lovingly restored back to life in the 1980s retaining many original features and one of the most authentic 16th Century farmhouses in the Lake District. A Grade II listed building, 3 bedroomed, detached Lakeland home in a superb location with fantastic views, adjoining orchard and a large detached two-storey undeveloped barn, a restoration project without a doubt but the results would be magnificent!
The large living accommodation comprises living room, kitchen, music room and shower to the ground floor and 3 bedrooms and house bathroom to the first floor all with the original beams to ceilings, panelling to some walls, Lakeland stone flooring and original oak floorboards and not forgetting the original grand fireplace in the living room.
On entering the property through the side door into a large breakfast kitchen, which is now in need of some modernisation but has retained many original features including a feature Lakeland stone fireplace housing a wood burning stove and exposed oak beams to ceiling creating a lovely country kitchen feel. Through into the large, beautiful sitting room, well suited for large family gatherings where the dual aspect windows not only allow for plenty of natural light but also showcase the lovely views towards the surrounding fells. The original fireplace is unarguably a fabulous feature housing a large wood burning stove set on Lakeland stone with stone surround along with the original beams and lintels. To the side of the sitting room is an endearing snug room, perfect for some quiet time overlooking the gardens and again with those breathtaking views.
From the sitting room is a stone floored entrance hall with shower room/utility off and a rather grand triple aspect 'music room' with high beamed ceilings and galleried balcony which was part of the extension to the property in the 1800's.
Lakeland stone stairs lead to the first floor where 3 large bedrooms and a house bathroom can be found again oozing with charm, original features and those views!
Outside the property to the front there is ample driveway parking, an adjoining private orchard and the large detached barn and stables which could become additional accommodation subject to the necessary planning permissions. To the rear of the property is a quiet garden area which looks onto the neighbouring fields and over to the surrounding fells.

Broadband availability and predicted speed
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
