Joeldale, Crosby Ravensworth, Penrith, Cumbria

Set within mature gardens & attached meadow in all circa 1.41 acres, in the highly desirable & historic village of Crosby Ravensworth, surrounded by the stunning countryside of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, a deceptively spacious, 4/5 bedroom, detached family home.

Situated within one of the region’s most coveted villages, in the unspoilt and picturesque Lyvennet Valley, Joeldale is a spacious family residence surrounded by the tranquillity of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The property also enjoys excellent connectivity, with Penrith, Appleby, Kendal and the M6 all within easy reach, and the Lake District National Park just a short drive away.

Located on a peaceful country lane, the property offers ample parking alongside a large double garage. It has been thoughtfully designed with a cleverly arranged reversed layout that maximises natural light, captures delightful views and provides seamless access to the rear gardens. In addition, a recently installed air source heat pump and solar panels make the property particularly environmentally friendly.

The interior offers a generous and highly versatile arrangement of accommodation.

The ground floor is entered via the front porch which leads to a central hallway, from which two well-proportioned bedrooms are served by a spacious shower room with double cubicle and WC. This level also benefits from a utility room and a further adaptable space, ideal for hobbies or a home office, beyond which lies an extensive storage area.

Ascending to the first floor, a galleried landing connects the principal reception rooms. The front reception room and the principal bedroom both enjoy an elevated outlook across hills, with a further bedroom and a four-piece family bathroom. To the rear is a kitchen dining room with views over the fields and opening onto a walled courtyard garden by means of double French doors. A second large reception room and conservatory all have direct access to the gardens, perfect for modern family living and versatile use.

Set within a generous plot, the property is complemented by well-maintained formal gardens to the front, while the rear features thoughtfully landscaped lawned gardens, ideal for outdoor entertaining.

Beyond the formal gardens is a productive growing space with large polytunnel, greenhouse and with a productive pear and apple orchard giving shade and further areas to entertain. Beyond this is the attached meadow of 1.09 acres with an outdoor shelter used as a kitchen for glamping guests and a composting toilet. There are further vegetable beds at the bottom of the field that provide income and a level of self sufficiency for our client. In addition, there is a selection of soft fruit bushes including raspberries, blueberries, blackberries and currants along with further apple trees, damson and plum trees. All growing areas have been actively managed using techniques to regenerate soil function.

A wildlife pond has also been created, providing an ideal environment for an established population of frogs, toads and dragonflies, along with visits from wild ducks and herons, further enhancing the property’s appeal for those seeking a rural lifestyle.

A rare and compelling property in a truly special location, Joeldale presents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a flexible family home which offers multigenerational/multi-family living potential due to its layout. Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate all that is on offer.
