Dairy Cottage, Brough Sowerby, Kirkby Stephen, Cumbria

Located to the fringe of this quiet and peaceful hamlet, less than 5 minutes from the heart of Kirkby Stephen, with far reaching rural aspects to rear, a well presented, 2 double bedroom, semi-detached bungalow with well-proportioned and flexible living accommodation and low maintained gardens.

Offered to the market with no onward chain and presented in neutral, well-maintained order throughout, Dairy Cottage is an attractive sandstone barn conversion bungalow set in the peaceful countryside of the Upper Eden Valley. The property offers excellent scope for personalisation and enjoys an enviable position at the head of this quiet village.

Thoughtfully designed, the accommodation begins with an entrance hall opening into a spacious, corner-aspect living room featuring a recently installed wood-burning stove. An inner hallway leads to two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a generous four-piece bathroom, with ensuite connecting door to bedroom 1.

To the rear of the property lies the impressive kitchen/dining room, fitted with a range of modern bespoke units, white quartz work surfaces, twin sinks, integrated dishwasher and a Calor gas range cooker. A useful utility room with WC is located off the kitchen. French doors open into the conservatory, which enjoys far-reaching views across the valley towards Wild Boar Fell.

Externally, the property benefits from enclosed, low-maintenance landscaped gardens to both the front and rear. To the rear is a shared parking area with allocated space for each property, and beyond this an additional lawned garden area complete with a solar-powered potting shed.

The property has been significantly improved in recent years and now benefits from double glazing throughout and a six-panel solar array to the rear elevation, generating an income of approximately £600 per annum and contributing to its impressive Band C energy rating.
