A rural home with a 'quirky' summer house has been put on the market.

The six-bedroom property is located in the heart of the Eden Valley and is set within a 'generous' 0.5-acre plot.

The house is being marketed by David Britton Estates.

Managing director David Britton said: "I’m thrilled to be the agent of choice for this magnificent property, which is a statement of luxurious living in one of the most beautiful rural settings in Cumbria.

"The property is particularly impressive from the street, and once through the front door, it is a home that keeps on giving, with more than enough room for a growing family or multi-generational living."

The home has been 'meticulously' updated and extended, incorporating the original barn to maximise living space.

The flexible layout presents the opportunity to create a self-contained holiday apartment.

Potential homeowners may be interested in the family room with its own kitchenette, which could be transformed into a self-contained apartment or rental unit, subject to planning permissions.

The double garage also offers scope for development.

The property is surrounded by 'beautifully manicured gardens' and offers 'stunning' views from every room at the rear, overlooking extensive lawns adorned with mature shrubs, trees, and flower beds.

There is a recently decorated summer house that mimics the old field railway line’s signal box, as well as various terraces and a decked area.

Inside, the property features a grand entrance hall leading to a spacious dining room and a farmhouse-style kitchen with bespoke cabinets, granite work surfaces, and modern appliances, anchored by a traditional Rayburn stove.
