Moss House is a substantial 6 bedroom period residence sitting in a generous plot of around 2.5 acres with a large partially converted coach house, within walking distance of the popular market town of Brampton. This is a superb lifestyle opportunity for a buyer looking for a large family home with a country lifestyle, in a standalone position, perfect if you are looking for a live/work environment, art studio, storage commercial use or even perhaps using the coach house as an extension of the family home for multi-generational use (STP). It has endless possibilities. Sitting in a rural yet accessible location on the edge of the popular market town of Brampton, enjoying beautiful views across its own gardens.  The main house is a detached period residence, believed to date back to the early 1800’s which has been extended over the years retaining many charming and original features.  Internally it is in need of light modernisation but has some wonderful living spaces with an abundance of reception rooms and bedrooms.  Each window throughout this home is blessed with lovely views across its beautiful grounds or across the surrounding countryside. Sitting across the courtyard is a detached coach house offering a range of flexible uses, currently undeveloped on the ground floor with ample storage space/garaging.  The first floor was converted in 1981 and is a superb space with vaulted beamed ceiling, kitchen area and bathroom.  It has previously been used as office space, perfect for working from home but has further potential to create ancillary accommodation/multi-generational living or even holiday accommodation, subject to the necessary planning consents.   Externally Moss House sits in grounds of around 2.5 acres including beautiful, landscaped gardens with meandering beck, established flower beds, extensive lawns, woodland areas, vegetable garden, an attractive stone outbuilding, ideally for potting shed and garden storage and a number of terraces perfect to sit and enjoy the views across the grounds. Both the barn and the house sit around an impressive private courtyard with an ample parking for a large number of vehicles. Sitting just a short distance from the popular market town of Brampton with an abundance of independent shops, schools, doctors’ surgery, golf club and all the lifestyle amenities that you could need and is also within walking distance from Talkin Tarn.  It has excellent transport links to the A69 to Newcastle, into Carlisle City Centre, M6, the Eden Valley and the Lake District National Park. This property is unlikely to remain on the market for any long period of time and a viewing is highly recommended.
