Description
Enjoying a stunning Lakeland setting with this traditional 3 Bedroom Farmhouse with adjoining barn, detached stone barn and further outbuildings and around 50 acres of ring-fenced land!
Sitting within the breathtaking landscape of the Lake District National Park, Hilltop Farm presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial farm steading comprising of a charming three-bedroom farmhouse with adjoining barn, a collection of traditional and contemporary farm buildings, and around 50 acres of agricultural land.
The traditional stone-built farmhouse is in need of renovation in parts but offers a warm and inviting atmosphere. The ground floor features a cosy sitting room with a multi-fuel stove, dining room, a traditional kitchen and a stylish family bathroom. The first floor provides three generously sized double bedrooms, all enjoying far-reaching Lakeland views. The barn to the side offers the opportunity for storage or could be converted into further living accommodation (STP)
Externally the home has the benefit of a cottage style garden to the rear, large side garden with undercover outdoor kitchen and BBQ area, children's tree house and seating areas, perfect for alfresco dining. There is ample gravel parking for a number of vehicles in the courtyard and nestled within the fields, down a meandering path, there is a shepherd hut, pond and fire pit area, perfect for enjoying the dark sky evenings.
Across the courtyard from the main home is an attractive stone barn which is currently used for storage but could be used as ancillary accommodation for the main house (STP). Behind this there are a number of smaller outbuildings, some in need of repair but all ideal for those looking for buildings and hard standing areas to service the approx. 50 acres of land.
The steading is ideal for those looking for an idyllic country life, small holding, equestrian interest or for those looking to generate a lifestyle income with yurts/camping etc (STP). The rural setting on the southern slopes of the hamlet of Nether Row at the foot of High Pike enjoys stunning panoramic views of the northern fells, with the popular 'Cumbrian Way' walk close-by. Located a short drive from the villages of Caldbeck and Hesket Newmarket and within easy reach of Carlisle, Penrith and Wigton.
Hill Top Farm presents a unique opportunity to embrace a quintessential Lakeland lifestyle, offering both tranquility and accessibility.
