WHY THE ASH? A substantial detached home of tremendous quality in a beautifully private site on the fringe of the village. A short walk from a village pub and within a peaceful setting just minutes from Carlisle, the M6 & M74 motorways and conveniently located for access to our wider region. Carlisle provides a full range of amenities and shops as well as direct rail access to London Euston in a little over three hours and Glasgow/Edinburgh in a little over an hour. There is a primary school within a 5 minute drive from the property as well as Skitby House, a popular country restaurant. A wide range of amenities are available in the nearby market town of Brampton as well as both Primary and Secondary Schools.  

ACCOMMODATION The sprawling living space provides ample accommodation for a large family and the theme of space is continued outside. A superb L-shaped kitchen diner, complete with exposed beams is the hub of the house. Fitted units sit under quality worktops and a large island sits in front of an AGA, finished in a contemporary dark grey. From the kitchen there is access to an impressive Oak framed garden room providing in and out living and taking in the superb open countryside views from the rear of the property. Bedroom five, complete with a stylish en-suite shower sits to the other side of a large hallway from the kitchen and means the property can be occupied on a single level if required. At the opposite end of the kitchen there is a useful utility room and a second boot room/utility to the other side of the hallway, with an external door. Within the hallway itself is an interesting wooden ladder providing access to a small mezzanine area. A feature fireplace within a large entrance hall links this space to the rest of the house. A snug sitting room, home office and dining room complete with large stove and double doors to a side garden further add to the feeling of space within the property. A small set of stairs leads down to an impressively proportioned living room, with large stove and bay window to the view. To the first floor are four further bedrooms, the master being an impressive space with a large bay window providing far reaching views, a generous dressing area with a range of fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower. There are two further en-suite double bedrooms and a fourth bedroom with study area as well as a four piece family bathroom. Externally the property is approached via a gravelled driveway which opens out to a large parking area with turning circle. An outstanding five bay oak framed carport perfectly compliments the detached barn with it's double garage and mutli-purpose room currently utilised as a games room and gym. The gardens which wrap around the property are beautifully both soft and hard landscaped, with the real highlight however being the adjacent paddock which is in excess of three acres and sits directly behind the property.
