DESCRIPTION A most appealing detached period cottage with great charm and character well located within a sought after village just east of Carlisle. The accommodation is comprehensive having impressive living space and three good bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor. Of particular interest is the detached outbuilding (former double garage) which provides a versatile space incorporating a fourth bedroom and ensuite shower room. This space also lends itself to studio or home office use. A generous single garage is still in situ. Inside the cottage does not disappoint. The sitting room features an exposed stone wall and incorporates the main entrance door onto a flagged floor. This continues through into the dining room and kitchen. There is a sandstone fireplace with stove. The tastefully appointed dining room has period detail and style and is open in part to the kitchen. Outside the private gardens complement the property beautifully.
