Description

This property, known as The Byre, is a three-bedroom barn conversion situated in a small rural cluster of homes near the hamlet of Mosser/Brandlingill. Its location offers a tranquil retreat on the western edge of the Lake District, close to picturesque spots like Buttermere and Crummock Water, making it ideal for both permanent living and investment opportunities such as a holiday let. The property benefits from full planning permission, allowing new owners flexibility over the next three years to adapt it according to personal or business needs. As you enter, a welcoming entrance hall leads to various living spaces. The ground floor features a cozy living room with ample natural light from front and rear windows and an exposed beam detail that adds character. Adjacent to this is the kitchen/dining area, designed with practicality in mind; it includes essential appliances and space for dining. A ground-floor shower room provides convenience for guests and family alike. Venturing upstairs reveals three bedrooms, each adorned with conservation-style skylights, enhancing their charm while allowing natural light to filter in. The first floor also hosts a well-appointed bathroom featuring modern fixtures. Externally, the property offers two designated parking spaces nearby. With its stunning surroundings and potential for renovation or transformation into a successful holiday rental, The Byre represents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a slice of the Lake District’s beauty while tailoring the home to their requirements. Additional practical aspects include mains water and electricity connections, oil central heating supplied through shared metering, and septic tank drainage. Although currently equipped with standard broadband service, options like Starlink satellite internet are available in the area for high-speed connectivity. This property not only allows for comfortable living but also holds promise as an investment in one of England's most scenic regions.
