Situated in the peaceful and highly desirable parish of Killington, Broad Raine is a charming and substantial detached period property offering a wealth of character features and enviable outdoor space. Set within generous gardens and benefiting from ownership of part of the River Lune, this unique home offers an exceptional lifestyle opportunity for those seeking rural tranquility with scope for modernisation.
Killington is a haven for those seeking an idyllic rural lifestyle, with a variety of footpaths inviting endless exploration of the picturesque landscape. Perfectly positioned just 4 miles from Junction 37 to the west and Sedbergh to the east, with Oxenholme Railway Station a mere 15-minute drive away. This property provides the ideal balance of tranquillity and accessibility, making it a perfect retreat for those seeking a peaceful lifestyle without sacrificing convenience.
Step into the welcoming sun room entrance, which provides a bright and versatile space that sets the tone for the rest of the home. The entrance hall leads the way firstly into the dining room; enjoying dual aspect windows and beams. Opposite, you are welcomed into the living room- a generous, characterful room featuring exposed beams, traditional detailing and plenty of natural light with a wood burning stove and surround. A spice cupboard is also present.
The kitchen, while in need of updating, offers a functional layout with an out look to the rear and potential for reconfiguration to create a modern country kitchen or open-plan kitchen-diner. A door opens into the porch area, ideal for hanging coats and kicking off muddy shoes. A cloakroom/W.C. is also conveniently located on the ground floor, as well as access into the cellar. There is further panelling reflecting its historic origins.
The first floor incudes three well-proportioned bedrooms. Bedrooms one and two are generous doubles, with three being a smaller room, each having their own individual charm and views of the surrounding countryside. Exposed timber beams continue throughout this level, adding warmth and historical character. A family bathroom serves this floor, with scope for reconfiguration or refurbishment to suit modern needs, with an additional W.C. adjoining.
A great additional feature of Broad Raine is the attic room on the second floor. With an en suite shower room, this flexible space would make an excellent principal suite, guest bedroom, study, or creative studio subject to some modernisations. Retaining original beams and enjoying elevated views, the attic room adds versatility to the home.
Set within a generous plot, the property boasts extensive gardens, including a large lawned area ideal for family use or al fresco entertaining, as well as a greenhouse, a shed and vegetable patches ready for the keen gardener. One of the standout features is the property's ownership of part of the river, offering both an attractive natural boundary and a peaceful backdrop for everyday living.
To the front and rear, there are two shared driveways, providing easy access and off-road parking for multiple vehicles. The property also benefits from three separate outbuildings, perfect for use as garden stores, workshops, or potential hobby rooms (subject to any necessary consents).
While Broad Raine is in need of general upgrading and redecoration, it presents a rare and exciting opportunity to restore and enhance a true character home in an idyllic rural location. With its original features, versatile accommodation, and extensive outdoor space, this is a property with enormous potential.
