Enjoying spectacular views across the surrounding countryside and to the Whinfell fell range, this charming two bedroom semi-detached barn conversion occupies a truly picturesque rural setting on the edge of the Lake District.
Enjoying spectacular views across the surrounding countryside and to the Whinfell fell range, this charming two bedroom semi-detached barn conversion occupies a truly picturesque rural setting on the edge of the Lake District. The property is complemented by approximately 1.5 acres of land, incorporating a delightful meadow, woodland and a particularly dramatic stretch of river, creating a wonderful haven in which to enjoy the tranquility and natural beauty of its surroundings. The present owners have made a few additions to the property over the years including a garage extension, new windows and doors, new Atlantis kitchen, air source heating and solar panels to name just a few.
The property forms part of an attractive and exclusive cluster of just four dwellings, peacefully positioned at the head of a private lane accessed from the A685 Kendal, within the scattered rural community of Docker and approximately half a mile from the village of Grayrigg. The nearby hamlet of Grayrigg benefits from a strong sense of community and offers a range of local amenities including a well-regarded primary school, church and village hall. The surrounding countryside is a particular delight, offering excellent opportunities for walking, cycling and enjoying the area’s outstanding natural beauty.
Despite its peaceful rural position, the property is conveniently placed for the historic market town of Kendal, widely regarded as the gateway to the Lake District, offering an excellent range of shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities. The M6 motorway is within easy reach, while Oxenholme Railway Station, on the main West Coast line between London and Glasgow, provides superb transport links for travelling further afield.
