Full Description: <p>Offering far more than just a traditional farmhouse, this appealing rural property combines a beautifully restored four-bedroom home set in approximately 4.6 acres of land, including approximately 3.5 acres of grazing land, woodland, attractive formal gardens and a detached barn with planning permission for conversion into a separate dwelling. Occupying a peaceful position in the hamlet of Carleton, just outside Holmrook and on the fringes of the Western Lake District National Park, the property presents a wonderful opportunity to embrace country living, with additional potential to create a second home. Sensitively restored by the present owners to a high standard, the farmhouse offers well-appointed and flexible accommodation, making it ideally suited to family life, while the surrounding land, outbuildings and fine rural outlook further enhance its appeal.</p><p>Internally, the property retains the welcoming character and charm expected of a traditional farmhouse, complemented by thoughtfully presented accommodation designed for modern living. A generous entrance hall doubles as an inviting reception space, complete with a wood-burning stove, and opens into a cosy main lounge. A second reception room provides valuable flexibility, with direct access to the gardens and the potential to serve as a ground floor bedroom if required. At the heart of the home is a spacious farmhouse dining kitchen, with access to a large utility room and the family bathroom. To the first floor, four well appointed bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation for a growing family or visiting guests, completing a versatile home that combines rural character with practical everyday living.</p><p>Externally, the property enjoys a particularly appealing setting, with formal gardens offering a fine rural outlook in all directions. Included in the sale is approximately 3.5 acres of grazing land, offering excellent appeal for those with equestrian interests, hobby farming or simply a desire for additional outdoor space, subject to the intended use. Opposite the main farmhouse, a detached barn benefits from planning permission for conversion into a dwelling, presenting an exciting opportunity for further development, subject to the approved plans and any applicable conditions. Additional useful outbuildings include a large log store and a covered carport area. Despite its peaceful rural position, the property remains well placed for exploring the dramatic fells, lakes and walking routes of the Western Lake District, as well as the estuary, coastline and historic coastal village of Ravenglass. Holmrook and the wider West Cumbrian area provide access to local amenities and employment centres, including Sellafield.</p><p>Combining an attractive farmhouse, substantial land, useful outbuildings and exciting development potential, this is a distinctive country property offering a wonderful balance of rural tranquillity, flexible family living and future opportunity.</p><br />EPC Rating: E
