Irton, Holmrook, CA19

Nestled in the idyllic hamlet of Irton in the Lake District National Park, this delightful detached cottage offers a rare opportunity to own a characterful home with circa 2 acres of outdoor space in one of Cumbria�s most sought after locations. Perfectly situated for lovers of the Lake District, it is only a short drive to Wastwater, England's deepest and arguably most beautiful lake, and within easy reach of iconic fells such as Scafell Pike and Great Gable. The nearby village of Eskdale Green provides local amenities, while Seascale and Drigg beaches and the delights of the charming coastal village of Ravenglass and its scenic estuary are just a stone�s throw away.

The cottage itself boasts versatile and deceptively spacious accommodation, blending period charm with practical modern living. There is also ample scope for future extension should a purchaser wish (subject to planning permission). It currently features a cosy lounge with attractive wood burning stove, which could easily be adapted into a third bedroom if desired, a further reception room, well appointed kitchen, large first floor bathroom, and two generous double bedrooms. The courtyard to the rear includes a detached stone outbuilding currently divided into two spaces, one used as a laundry room, offering fantastic potential for conversion into a holiday cottage or studio (subject to planning consent).

Externally, the property truly excels, with a delightful front garden and private gated vehicular access leading to ample offroad parking and the expansive land beyond. The circa 2 acres includes a mixture of arable land and enchanting woodland, offering endless opportunities for outdoor activities, gardening, or even smallholding pursuits. This combination of natural beauty, versatile accommodation, and location makes this property a unique find, ideal for those seeking a tranquil lifestyle immersed in the Lakes and its surroundings.
