Featuring significant alterations from the 17th and 18th centuries, this property is complemented by two separate apartments, set within approximately three acres of mature gardens. With its rich architectural legacy and period features, there's considerable potential to enhance and revitalise the space while preserving its character.
Situated in Newbiggin Hall, just under six miles from Carlisle and conveniently close to the M6 junction, this attractive location marries accessibility with scenic beauty.
