Believed to date back to the seventeenth century, Pool Garth was originally one of several historic farmsteads on Cartmel Fell. The property was sympathetically enlarged during the early Victorian era and further enhanced by an award-winning extension in the late 1990s. More recently, it has been comprehensively refurbished by the current owners, creating a superb balance of period character and contemporary comfort.

Occupying a particularly peaceful and picturesque setting within the heart of the Lake District National Park, Pool Garth represents a rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive family home in one of the region's most sought-after locations.

Situated within the heart of the Lake District National Park, Cartmel Fell is characterised by rolling fells, traditional stone-built farmsteads, ancient woodland and an extensive network of footpaths and bridleways, making it an exceptional location for walking, cycling and enjoying the outdoors.

The charming village of Cartmel, famed for its historic Priory, racecourse, Michelin-starred dining and artisan food culture, lies just a short drive away. The popular Lakeland destinations of Bowness-on-Windermere, Windermere, Kendal and Grange-over-Sands are also readily accessible, providing an excellent range of shops, schools, restaurants and leisure facilities.

With the shores of Lake Windermere nearby and some of the National Park's most beautiful landscapes on the doorstep, Pool Garth is perfectly located for enjoying an exceptional country lifestyle, while remaining within easy reach of the region’s many attractions.

At the heart of the home is the impressive breakfast kitchen, a superb space for both everyday family life and entertaining. Originally the property's library, it has been thoughtfully transformed into a stylish and contemporary kitchen featuring an excellent range of fitted wall and base units, an electric Aga, integrated Miele dishwasher, integrated fridge and freezer, wine fridge, and a large central island incorporating a Neff oven and induction hob. There is ample space for a substantial dining table and informal seating area, centered around a cosy log-burning stove, making this a wonderful social hub throughout the seasons.

The lounge offers a more intimate and relaxing retreat, where traditional Lakeland stone flooring continues underfoot and a wood-burning stove provides a focal point. Built-in bookshelves add character and practicality, while a charming window seat offers the perfect place to enjoy views of the surrounding gardens. The room also benefits from access to the rear of the property.

A versatile gym room provides flexible additional accommodation and could easily serve a variety of purposes. The sitting room is beautifully bright and spacious, enjoying delightful outlooks across the gardens and surrounding countryside, with fitted cupboards providing further storage.

The utility room is well-equipped for modern family living, housing a washbasin, plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, the pressurised water tank, Vaillant boiler, borehole system and electric meters. Completing the ground floor is a further versatile room, currently utilised as a home office, offering an ideal workspace or potential hobby room.
