Hackthorpe, Penrith, CA10

An exciting opportunity has arisen for those wishing to acquire a substantial, yet homely and immaculately presented, four bed residence set within attractive and generously proportioned gardens. An early viewing is recommended as this is certain to be a popular property!

Haven by name, haven by nature, this fabulous property has been lovingly enhanced over the years to create a superb family home, complete with versatile and generous accommodation, beautiful gardens, workshop, garden shed and garage which is currently used as a utility space/boot room but could easily be converted back to its original purpose with the up and over door remaining in place.

The property itself briefly comprises a bright, modern kitchen with large island providing storage and informal dining space, utility room, living room with Aga multifuel stove, and opening up to the sun room. Cloakroom/WC facilities are off the main hallway, as is the dining room, storage cupboards and a substantial double bedroom, offering independent facilities including a small kitchenette area and beautiful four piece ensuite, together with direct access out to the rear garden. To the first floor there is a family shower room, principal bedroom with four piece ensuite, further double bedroom, and study with access directly into a fourth double bedroom leading off it.

Complementing this wonderful home are the expansive gardens and stunning views towards the Pennines. With access around the perimeter of the property, the attractive gardens sit to the front, side and rear, and enjoy a delightful combination of established hedgerows offering an excellent degree of privacy, flower beds, shrubs and a fabulous pond, with running water feature, enhancing the tranquility of this special home. Seating areas are dotted around the property, affording the opportunity to take advantage of different aspects and view points, a hot tub is well placed overlooking the gardens and a static caravan, with its own verandah, sits discreetly off the front lawn and in the past has served various purposes, including supplementary accommodation to the main house, and a quiet space for hobbies.
