Description

Situated in a highly desirable area north of Carlisle, this property presents a unique investment opportunity with significant renovation potential. The existing structure sits on a generous 0.25-acre plot, offering ample space for a family home with four bedrooms and three bathrooms, along with sufficient parking and a detached garage. Full planning permission has already been secured for the development of a contemporary four-bedroom residence, making it an ideal candidate for those looking to embark on a Grand Design-style self-build. The approved design emphasizes modern living and is strategically laid out. The ground floor features an entrance hall leading to both a lounge and study at the front, alongside an en-suite bedroom and utility room that connects to a walk-in store. At the rear, an expansive open-plan kitchen and dining area will boast panoramic glass windows that frame views of the garden and surrounding countryside. On the first floor, you will find two additional double bedrooms, a family bathroom, plus an impressive principal suite equipped with panoramic windows, dressing room, and en-suite shower room. With mains services available nearby—including electric, water, and gas—this property is primed for development. The purchaser will need to manage connections to utilities as per planning requirements but stands to gain from creating a bespoke living space in this appealing location backing onto open fields.
