Description

This Grade II listed farmhouse in Westmorland boasts significant potential for transformation, ideal for those seeking a family home or an investment opportunity. Set in an elevated position with stunning views of the Lyth Valley, the property is accompanied by 3 substantial barns and a piggery, along with approximately 4.85 acres of land that has received planning permission for residential development. The property requires a thoughtful renovation to restore its former glory and adapt it to modern living standards. Notably, previous alterations such as uPVC double glazing conflict with the regulations governing Grade II listed buildings, necessitating re-glazing throughout. Furthermore, there is scope to convert the traditional barns into two houses and repurpose the piggery into a home office, making this an exciting prospect for developers. Located conveniently near the A590, residents will enjoy easy access to Windermere, Kendal, and other nearby towns.
