Description
A charming mid terraced barn conversion, set within the idyllic hamlet of Roundthwaite in the Lune Valley, located within the eastern boundary of the Lake District National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Surrounded by open countryside and fellside walks, yet conveniently positioned for Junction 38 of the M6 motorway with excellent links to Penrith, Carlisle, Lancaster, Preston and Manchester, the property offers the perfect balance of rural tranquility and accessibility. Well placed for Kendal, Sedbergh, Orton and Kirkby Stephen, there are excellent local schooling options including the renowned Sedbergh School, with the bus for Kirkby Stephen Grammar School collecting from the top of the lane, approximately a third of a mile away. Completed in 2017 by the highly regarded Shire Homes, known for their skilled craftsmanship and restoration of barn conversions, the property blends character with quality modern finishes.
The accommodation is arranged over three floors and briefly comprises an entrance hallway, kitchen and a good sized living room with French doors opening out onto a patio, creating a natural connection to the outdoors. The ground floor benefits from oak flooring throughout and oak veneered internal doors, adding warmth and quality. To the first floor are two bedrooms, one with a full wall of fitted wardrobes and a family bathroom, while the second floor provides a generous principal bedroom with en-suite shower room with underfloor heating. A Nest controlled electric heating system provides efficient and convenient temperature control.
Externally, the property benefits from a private terrace and access to the surrounding countryside, with a public footpath leading directly onto the fellside behind. There is off road parking to the front and the property enjoys a peaceful setting close to Roundthwaite Beck and surrounding woodland. Offered with no onward chain, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful home in a sought after rural location.
