Tucked away at the head of a private lane with a range of barns and outbuildings and backing onto its own approx. 2 acre paddock, Ympgarth House is an attractive 4 bedroom period property believed to date back to late 1700's. It sits in an elevated, yet very private position on the edge of this desirable village, just outside the Lake District National Park and only 3 miles from Penrith. Approached by a private driveway, owned by Ympgarth House and giving access to 2 other homes, this is an exciting opportunity for those wishing to put your own stamp on your property as there are two barns sitting around a courtyard which have further potential for conversion, subject to the necessary planning consents and a wonderful paddock of around 2 acres to the rear, perfect if you have an equestrian interest, are looking for a small holding or as an extension of the gardens. The main house offers spacious and flexible accommodation throughout with many original and charming features and currently comprising on the ground floor; a traditional farmhouse style kitchen with island unit opening into a dining room with wood burning stove, sitting room, conservatory, utility/pantry and cloakroom.  On the first floor there are 4 bedrooms (3 doubles and 1 single) with the master bedroom having a generous ensuite bathroom and an additional family shower room.  Whilst the property has been well maintained, there is excellent scope to update and further improve this enchanting home.Externally approached by a private driveway leading into a central courtyard, owned by Ympgarth House and giving access to  2 neighbouring properties.  To the front of the house is a pretty paved terrace, off road parking area, garage and outhouse. To both sides and to the rear there are wonderful cottage style gardens with lawns, bordered by flower beds, trees and shrubs.  Beyond the garden to the rear there is also a paddock, measuring approximately 2 Acres.

Sitting in the courtyard is a large barn, dating back to 1800’s with an undercover area, perfect for vehicle storage/ workshop and sitting across the courtyard, a smaller barn attached to the neighbouring property.  The current vendor has submitted a planning application for the conversion into a 3 bedroom dwelling and a 2 bedroom dwelling respectively, yet a decision has not yet been granted. An opportunity like this superb family home with barns and paddock in this desirable village location is rare to the market and will not stay long so an early viewing is highly recommended.  ** Viewing strictly by appointment only **
