Castlehow’s unique elevated location is stunning and perfectly positioned to enjoy the breath-taking views across towards the Lake District National Park. Nestled into the dramatic landscape, within around 6 acres of land and approached via a private drive, this is a fantastic opportunity to put your own stamp on a period property. This a superb farmhouse with adjoining barn and a substantial detached barn, all with a wealth of further possibilities i.e. the adjoining barn could be converted into the main residence to make a more substantial dwelling subject to the relevant planning consents.
The main house has not been lived in for over 50 years and is a full renovation project but has already been stripped out and is ready for refurbishment, with some work already completed i.e. some new timber framed windows. Internally it retains many original features, wooden beams, impressive fireplaces, ceiling hooks, mullion windows, original stove, cobbled and stone flagged floors and a beautiful wooden central staircase.
This property has not been to the market for a considerable amount of time of such is a rare commodity having elevated views across to the Lake District National Park, land with the potential for equestrian use or just created into a large garden with spectacular views in all directions. This property is unlikely to remain on the market for any long period of time and is unlikely to be sold and to come back onto the market anytime soon, an early view is highly recommended!
** Viewing is strictly by appointment only **
This adjoining barn, not quite double height, is a great addition to this delightful steading with further potential for extension into the main house to create larger living accommodation or for annex/holiday let/ancilliary accommodation, subject to the necessary planning consents.
This substantial sandstone barn is ready for conversion, subject to planning, and once renovated could extend to around 4000sq ft. Coach house style doors open up to a paddock to the rear giving this barn an incredible view across the countryside. The further development potential that this barn has is second to none and would make an incredible second dwelling (STP)
