4 bedroom Unspecified Property Type For Sale

Key Details

Property Description

The drive through the country side to this property is lovely, the first glimpse of the property is exciting and the approach through the pedestrian gate to the beautiful, pillared covered Porch is very impressive. A fabulous start which only continues!

The front door opens into the spacious and welcoming Hallway with high corniced ceilings, stairs to the First Floor and lovely, original doors to the Ground Floor. To the right is the Lounge - a super, sunny and generous room with dual aspect. The large front window with window seat enjoys a very pleasant outlook to the fields beyond.

The cosy focal point is a modern multi-fuel stove set into the charming inglenook fireplace. Fitted cupboards to the left of fireplace and useful door in to the Breakfast Kitchen. To the left of the Hallway is the Morning Room - an equally spacious and sunny room with dual aspect, similar pleasing views and wood burning stove. Double, glazed doors to the Dining Room/Study.

This room enjoys a side aspect and although currently used as a large Study, this versatile room could quite easily be a formal Dining Room or Playroom perhaps. The Dining Kitchen is of very impressive proportions and the quintessential farmhouse Kitchen. Large enough for a good sized dining table and far reaching views over the Garden down the beautiful Rusland Valley from the kitchen window.

A pleasure to wash up here! Furnished with a range of cream wall and base cabinets with beech effect work-surface. Integrated dish washer, fridge and freezer, built in oven and ceramic hob. Feature part original range (S Warhurst of Ulverston) with wood burning stove. Recessed shelved pantry cupboard with stripped doors and useful under stairs storage cupboard.

The Boot Room/Rear Porch has a fabulous, original flagged floor, cold slab, external door and access to the Utility Room. This ‘room' is super for wet dogs and muddy boots to dry off and has ample space to store outdoor gear. The Utility Room is shelved and plumbed for a washing machine and tumble drier.

From the Hallway the wonderful, shallow stair case with ornate spindles and balustrades lead up to the Landing which is very spacious with large window overlooking the side Garden. There is also a loft hatch. Bedrooms 1 and 2 are the first of the well proportioned Double Bedrooms, both with dual aspects and enjoying beautiful country views to the front.

Both have recessed wardrobes with charming stripped doors and Bedroom 2 has an original, cast iron feature fireplace (not in use). Bedroom 3 is situated to the rear with pleasant garden views and shelved recess. Bedroom 4 is another well proportioned double room with superb open views of open countryside and fells. The Family Bathroom is almost the size of an average London flat!

Roomy enough for a party! Cupboard with lovely stripped doors housing the hot water cylinder, super fun cow print wall paper and a 4 piece white suite comprising WC, pedestal wash hand basin, bath and double, walk-in shower enclosure. Although this is the only Bathroom currently there is potential to create an En-suite in Bedroom 1 or 2 if required.

Located just outside the rear door is the ‘Boiler Room' which houses the oil central heating boiler and private water supply filters etc. Velux window, ample storage space and definitely potential as a Workshop. Next door is an outdoor WC - very useful indeed for the gardeners!

The Gardens are superb and fully wrap around the property to all sides. The front area is grassed with wall and pretty wrought iron railings - these continue around to the side too. The side area has some lovely mature trees and provides a much needed shady part for those hot summer days. To the side too is the access gate and paved pathway (passing a useful open log store) to the paved Patio.

With access from the Kitchen this Patio is a super, private place for outdoor dining and entertaining. Two old stone steps lead to the main Garden which is of ample proportions! Mainly lawn with some well established fruit trees dotted around. In true modern day style two areas have been left to wildlife and are now a mass of pretty, colourful flowers.

This Garden will appeal to those with green fingers, those who like to entertain (definitely room for a marquee) and bags of space for the children's play equipment or simply space for them to explore and let off steam. Of course, from almost every inch of the Garden is a charming peaceful view!

Across the road from the main property is an additional piece of ground which belongs with the property which is mainly left to its own natural devices with strimmed pathway and pond.

Location Thwaite Head is a delightful, small cluster of properties, just a little past Rusland. Rusland is a charming hamlet with very picturesque church (burial place of children's writer Arthur Ransome of Swallows and Amazons) and a traditional, stone built Community Hall, available for hire - The Reading Rooms.

The closest shopping can be found at Hawkshead (approximately 5 miles) or the larger Market town of Ulverston (approximately 8 miles) where a wide range of amenities can be found. The closest Public House (with an excellent reputation for food) is ‘The Manor' at Oxen Park around a 5 minute car journey and Primary Schools at Penny Bridge, Backbarrow or Ulverston.

Thwaite Heas Farm is literally a hop, skip and a jump away from the attractions and fabulous walks are on offer in Grizedale Forest, High Dam or at Tarn Hows.

To reach the property from the A590, head towards Ulverston. Before the Greenodd Roundabout turn right signposted Bouth. Follow the road and turn right at the crossroads signposted Colton. Head into Colton following signs for Rusland and Satterthwaite and into the village of Oxen Park. Continue through Oxen Park passing ‘The Manor' Public House on the right.

Follow the road out of Oxen Park for approximately 1.5 miles and turn right, taking the next left following the sign for Rusland Church. Follow through the village to the end of the road turning left and immediately right. Thwaite Head Farm can be found shortly on the right hand side.
