Low Scales, Aspatria, Wigton

A TRULY UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY, this exceptional property combines a beautifully converted three-bedroom barn with a fully equipped canine hydrotherapy facility, offering both lifestyle and business potential.
The Barn, thoughtfully renovated and completed in 2024, provides a bright and spacious living environment full of character, charm, and modern style, all set within a generous plot featuring a garden, ample parking, and useful external storage. Complementing the home is a detached building purpose-built for canine hydrotherapy.

Essential Information - The property comprises a three bedroomed, semi-detached barn conversion with garden and a canine hydrotherapy pool - Cumbria Canine Hydrotherapy Centre - an established business which has operated successfully on site for over 20 years. Currently run as a hobby business based on vet referrals and recommendations, but without advertising, there is much scope to expand as such facilities are few and far between in Cumbria. The development will be sold as one lot.

Owner's Comments - "It has been a privilege to run CCHC since 2007. From Chihuahuas to Tibetan Mastiffs; disabled dogs to support dogs, getting to know them and building a rapport to help them live their best lives has been amazing. Whether swimming for rehabilitation or fun and fitness we have made a huge difference in the well being of so many lovely dogs, and that's immensely rewarding".
