This could be used as an annexe for multi-generational families, as a source of rental income, or as a simple extension.

The property has around two acres of land including a south-facing garden, patios, a rockery, a pond, and lawn areas which are sheltered by trees.

There are also two paddocks with field shelters.

There is a cobbled courtyard with a range of traditional farm buildings and stables totalling over 6,500 sq. ft.

These consist of former stables, livestock and general purpose storage buildings.

David Britton, managing director of David Britton Estates, said: "Dating back to around 1860 and sitting at the head of the courtyard, this wonderful property has been recently renovated by the current owner into a beautiful family home with the option of a one-bedroom cottage to the side.

"Orchard House sits on the fringe of the pretty village of Calthwaite, within easy commuting distance of Penrith and Carlisle and in an elevated and private position on the western edge of the village, surrounded on three sides by open fields and woodland.
